From: (Landshark) LOL!!!! Other than south of the border, is there any descent fishing??? Landshark You know, you really ought to get away from the west coast more often : ) That's the one thing I missed when I lived in Ca...prime fishing. You ought think about an east coast expedition. You can do the Gulf and Atlantic if you base out of the Keys, but I'm a Gulf water fan. I prefer calm and cystal clear and warm waters opposed to the cold, harsh churn of the Atlantic. Hey Twisty, lived in the high desert of So Cal and there wasn't much fishing there. Where you are in the gulf you are spoiled with the warm water and all. Try getting a line wet with 6' breakers at 38f and a stiff breeze blowing the bait fish in. Gotta be dedicated... |

Seriously, he does have it good. There is nothing like a good large mouth or for that fact small mouth bass, but I've been partial to Trout and the sport fishing for Yellow fin or Dorado or an occasional Wahoo when down south of the border. Merry Christmas Jim & Twist, Steveo and everyone else........................ Landshark |

What about Wahoo, Cobia, King Mackerel, and Marlin? Yea, the Cobia are good fishing, not such a great tasting fish (my personal opinion), Mackerel are good for catch and release (a little oily for my taste) and the Marlin are just starting to make somewhat of a comeback in the Gulf waters, but if they have an oil spill from the drilling planned for the future, we can kiss it all goodbye. Yeah, I don't care for Kingfish or Ling for the taste either, but they do fight for a fish of their size! We have marlin here every summer along with the sails, usually 50 or more miles off the coast, but occasionally they come in closer when the blasted southeasterly wind subsides for a few days and the water clears a bit. Of course, it also takes the cooperation of the Mississippi river too...damned Yankee runoff polluting the Gulf! The oil companies...we've not ever had a spill here from the rigs, but ships are another thing altogether. But then again, you use oil products, don't you? Share the risk with rest of us. |

Marlins are ok to catch, but not good eating. I hate spending an hour to land a fish and you can't even eat it. Landshak |
