Rovingmutt

Excellent Lou, how is the water levels on the alley, my son and I would like to make our annual trip in may, mutt

I got one 2 weeks ago that had blisters on it, wonder what that was.

that would be cool, a bass resource meet up for florida guys,

so the fish i thought was a snakehead at mm35, was was probebly a mudfish

oh man, I almost text-ed you today for some advice, if i would of heard about all the frog fishin fun i would have camped out on 27 lol, glad you were able to find them.

Lou, we had a pretty good day, my last 2 times out i got skunked so 13 is a good improvement.

Went with my son(joe), down to alligator alley today and fished mm 35 north side from 9.30 to 5.00, never been down there to fish before, had a slow start, so i started using everything i could to find something they wanted, my 1st bite was on a silver rattle trap, then a kvd crankbait 1.0, then nothing, started throwing worms etc, into the grass started getting fish, a watermelon senco did the trick for us, we didn't get as many as i hoped for only 13, most were small but a few around 13" and 2 at 15", we lost about 12 in the weeds, the most excitement came when joe hooked his 1st snakehead(look like one) about 15", put up great fight, when we got it to the side of the boat, i thought what do i do with this??, so when i went to get the jaw grip, it got off. overall a pretty good day, but next time i will bring my gas boat motor, my trolling motor was not enough to get very far up the canal. thanks to BassinLou. who help me plan this out.

I had a 2.5lb once that took about 5 min to get going, watched it swim away and thought i did my good deed etc... then an osprey came down and snatched it 20 ft from boat

going out saturday to mm35, possible with my son(9 yo), hope we get some for him, we had a dry spell in feb, 3 hour trip for me from st pete, but worth it for father/son time and good fishing

nice pig, ok a secret spot, any hints

zack what size jon boat, i have a 12 ft, i am thinking of getting a 10 ft because the 12 is a little big for me

Zack I have a 4 hp johnson that i do not use, works good, but i live in st pete, if your want to see it i might be able to meet up somewhere???

nice fish lou, seems like the spinners are working lately, and the warm up has got them moving again

yeah man, I got a trip to think about, it takes about 3 hours to get to alley from st pete, this could be good, real good... joe and i love to play with gators, and maybe some peacocks!!!!

hey lou I have been thinking i would really like to go down to the alley area and fish with joe, I went through there last summer and saw many launch areas, are these good places to go?? and in a 12 ft jon boat, just thinking maybe in a month or two, thanks

I just got mine, a dud out of the box

I just received mine in the mail from livingston, it's the DM 14, the lights in the eyes stopped working after about 5 seconds, not too impressed with it, live and learn i guess, mutt

hey AK good to here from you, my son and i have'nt been out too much this month, too cold and slow for my son, he likes alot of action as he calls it I'm trying to get him out on saturday, but he seems not interested, but maybe..... the plastics seem to be what they want now, I was thinking of throwing a gambler big ez the next time out... the weather looks good next week !!!!!!

good job lou, nice to see some action going on somewhere, thinking about going out sat or monday, warmer temps finally, good luck on saturday.

diggy has the spinner bait been all you used lately, i've been trying alot of different stuff and it has been slow for me, not sure what to do next Got this today on a 3/4 oz rattle trap, slow and deep, only 1 today

whoa, you got my attention, i will check them out

there is a park in largo, i think on 8th ave?, can't remember the name, i have seen 2 guys pull nice fish out of there, north of east bay drive, west of 113th st taylor park, in largo

good luck, i never found good fishing in pinellas, i travel on weekends to lakeland to fish
