Super User AK-Jax86 Posted March 10, 2015 Super User Posted March 10, 2015 I caught my new PB 11lbs 2oz on Sunday. I was fishing a Strike King Redeye Shad and I casted parallel to the bank about 15-20ft off shore. She slammed my Redeye and my retrieve just stopped thought I was hung up til she took off. I fought her for a long time til she tired out and my buddy grabbed her. Funny I caught a 9lb 5oz on the same lure. Both fish are Florida FWC Trophy Catch certified and are swimming around to be caught again. It has been crazy here in Jacksonville, when I get time I will grab a bunch of pics of my buddies and I fish from 2015 and we are just a 1/4 way through the year. 9lbs 5oz Can't desribe the feeling of catching one of these BUT the better feeling is knowing that they are swimming around to, breed, and hopefully be caught again 13 Quote
Ozark_Basser Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Toads for sure. How is bank fishing in Jacksonville? Lots of spots? I know a little further south is loaded with little lakes. 1 Quote
Super User AK-Jax86 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Super User Posted March 10, 2015 Toads for sure. How is bank fishing in Jacksonville? Lots of spots? I know a little further south is loaded with little lakes. Yea tons of lakes and ponds to bank fish. Jacksonville is huge so we have it all. Rodman Resivour and Lake Santa Fe are my two favorite big water lakes 1 Quote
