The one on Saturday I messed up and set the hook slinging my rod up, that one wasn't hooked right I could just tell. I usually set the hook to the side cuz when I try to set it by pulling up, like you would a frog, I find it rips the crank out their mouth. The ones today were to the side when I set the hook. The one that came off close to shore was my fault because she was hung up in the pads I let out slack which relieved the pressure on the line and hook. Reeled in my crank with some vegetables on it and watched her tail flap on top and swim off. The other two just shook it after a nice fight on the jump.

When you use cranks is that how you set the hook too, down/to the side

 

Yes, I use a side sweep.

Oh yeah, they do have a speed limit at Lox, I have seen the signs. They do speed traps on the water.

I too have seen them six months ago righting tickets at Lox for speeding. Easy to do when your boat can do 70 and your not used to speed limits on big bodies of water. Does anyone know why they posted a limit?

he said it was easier to slow down for gators in the water at 35 than 50.

FishDaddy-18.5, 19 Bitters naked swimmer

Jacob-20.5, and a few 15's. The 15s caught on a bluegill rattler

Mutt and Joe caught a boat load on cranks, I think they were trolling them (cheaters, lol)

Lunkmaster-19.5,18,17.5,17, on Senkos

Dsidle-18.5,18 on sexy shad. A 18, 14 on senkos

BoSox-in the 16's with all, one coming from a brush hog

Lou-............a 14 on a koppers frog. Might have been bigger if he used a Booyah!

Fstr-pulled himself a nice 20. Also managed to catch a speeding ticket, whatever that is, he must have been burning a buzzbait or something, lol.

Me? Well, just the one 21 from the golf course. Didn't get anything worth writing home about yesterday. But it was fun using the Type-R with light line and rod for small fish. Kind of gave a good fight.

 

Tight lines everyone!

Had to go to Jacksonville Beach today so I stopped at Ponte Vedra for a hour. Was throwing a frog at first, still won't give up on it, missed one fish.  Then switched to my crank rod and caught 2 fish on KVD 1.5 (some new color don't remember exact name but it looks like a Dalmatian with a yellow belly the name on the box was long).

 

Met up with DS around 3:30ish at my golf course.  Had a miss at the first two ponds but that was it.  We moved to a different pond in the back.  We both were throwing frogs and cranks.  He switched to a senko and caught 1.  I switched from a KVD 1.5 (Dalmatian color) to a KVD 1.0 in blue gill.  Caught a small one hit it right at shore.  Then same thing happened as I was talking to DS but this one was a big one. Threw me off guard didn't get her hooked right felt her and she took off.  Then I caught one that was probably 18" this one hit it about 5 yards from shore.  Someone called security so the guy came and told us we had to go. I started to give him the business then I stopped when I realized he was the cool one lol.  We came to an agreement that the next time he would just give a honk and keep it moving lol. He is a fellow fishermen too so he understood that people are just being ******.

That 15" still leaves you at 3rd place but with 80", everyone else maintains their place as well.
