LMB KING Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 that's true. the fishing is getting better in freshwater and salt. Lets catch em. This year, I'm only using big baits. Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 18, 2014 Super User Posted June 18, 2014 I'm going to do a little retention pond fishing this weekend. Hopefully going with a buddy next weekend. I stopped into a local tackle store for the good word out and a certain body of water produced 40+ bass in one day. With all this rain and whatnot, seems us Florida guys are getting a nice summer break right now from the hot and sunny dog days. Not telling. I need all the luck and lack of fishing pressure I can get up here in G'ville. I gotta keep you fools off the water! Rain ain't making it to Jax enjoy YOUR break lol Good luck Quote
LMB KING Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Makin' the fanny pack look good. LOL yea i prefer those pack than carrying and box or heavy book bag. you probably cant tell from the pics but thats a 7 pounder. for some reason it looks smaller Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 19, 2014 Super User Posted June 19, 2014 What ya catch that beat on? Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted June 19, 2014 Super User Posted June 19, 2014 This is the C-14 Canal That's a real nice fish. Did the scale say 7lbs on the nose?? Quote
LMB KING Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 That's a real nice fish. Did the scale say 7lbs on the nose?? my scale said 8 but that scale is off theres no way thats an 8. i estimated 7 or 6 and a half. it was a heavy fish. i see them every where on c-14 Quote

I just have to ask.... 1 Quote
LMB KING Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Was this the same scale you used for your 15lb catch? I just have to ask.... no. it was another one. Now i got the berkley digital scale i just bought it and its very accurate. the other scale would say that its a 2 pounder. Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted June 19, 2014 Super User Posted June 19, 2014 no. it was another one. Now i got the berkley digital scale i just bought it and its very accurate. the other scale would say that its a 2 pounder. So i understand, you bought the Berkley digital scale today? Or did you use the berkley scale on yesterday's catch? Quote
LMB KING Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 So i understand, you bought the Berkley digital scale today? Or did you use the berkley scale on yesterday's catch? this catch was not today or yesterday, it was last week catch. I just got the berkley scale this week. Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted June 19, 2014 Super User Posted June 19, 2014 this catch was not today or yesterday, it was last week catch. I just got the berkley scale this week. Ah.... now it all makes sense... thank you for clearing it up. I hope you enjoy the new scale. I hear the berkely's are good scales. Enjoy!! Quote
LMB KING Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Ah.... now it all makes sense... thank you for clearing it up. I hope you enjoy the new scale. I hear the berkely's are good scales. Enjoy!! Thanks, it feels solid and its accurate. It was expensive as hell. I spend $60 for it. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted June 20, 2014 Super User Posted June 20, 2014 I'm glad to hear that you have an accurate scale now. A 15# bass is pretty awesome, to me just as awesome is one of those 40# snook, I'd like to see one of those pictures. In all my years of snook fishing, and I do it nearly every day, I've never caught a 40 pound snook. Quote
Jaxassassin Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 My biggest snook was 22lbs out of the Sebastian Inlet. I've caught a 40lb red from there as well. I've seen some other people off the pier catch snook that might have gone 40 but weren't verified. I miss living in Sebastian. Best fishing in Florida(minus the keys) for salt and freshwater. Quote

My wifes grandparents used to live down there. They just moved to SC full time....That placed looked awesome to fish. I am dying to get into some inshore. You fish much salt up here? Quote

Sebastian has 50 and 60 pound redfish. the majority of world record redfish had been caught in Sebastian in the Indian river lagoon. Sebastian is a good place to catch big fish. Quote

Mainly kingfish but some trout too. I fished all the flats in the Indian river lagoon. 1 Quote
CentralFloridaBass Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Hey guys haven't been on BassResource in a while but just wanted to get back on and see what you guys are catching them on. Haven't been doing great lately and just need some tips on what baits you guys are using, any feedback is greatly appreciated. Quote

Been using senkos and crankbaits. Whats working out there? Im in Orlando. Quote

Frogs and speed/uvibe worms on top if that isn't working then I take to the bottom with big worms and pitching craw/creatures. Work your bait slow....let it soak, drag or slooow roll it. If the bite is on and they are busting then flukes, spinnerbaits, uvibes. Find out where they hang and at what time of day in your spots Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted June 20, 2014 Super User Posted June 20, 2014 Ah... summertime. Fishing can be spotty. Swallow a big patience pill and get out there as much as you can to increase your odds of catching fish. Some people pick up night fishing this time of year because the FL heat can be brutal. Mornings and late afternoons are always the more bearable times this time of year. If you do fish during the day, work cover methodically, and moving water is always a plus. 1 Quote

Sebastian is a good place to catch big fish. I believe there can only be 1 world record and for redfish it happens to be North Carolina, 94#. Sebastion does hold some great fish, Florida record is 52# caught in that general area. Quote
