Going to a buddy's camp, no access to a boat but they do have a nice dock setup. Any suggestions on what to use? Was thinking about rigging one with a straight queen cocahoe or texas popping cork w/plastic underneath; the other will probably be a bottom setup. Any suggestions?

I don't know what to tell you to use other than live shrimp, but I will tell you the fishing is nothing like LA fishing...and I don't care how close it is to LA. I live in South MS, and don't even bother getting a MS fishing license.

That is better than the other options, although if it was the canals, you can catch some nice bluegill. I'm biased I'm sure because I prefer to catch specks and reds, but there is good flounder fishing there...and you can probably pick of the occasional speck as well.

Well shite, yall have dampered my hopes




I won't be able to keep any of the fish I catch so I don't mind catch trash fish. I just want some action. The g/f will be there so she couldn't care less when she is reeling in. She doesn't know the different between a bass and a redfish

that's why I said lazy fish them on the bottom. you can sit and drink beer and catch hardheads, sting rays, etc. and get drunk.

I'll pray that you use worms and bobbers when I'm slaying bluefin thur-sun this weekend in the gulf

Seriously, worms and bobbers in the shade.. granted you will be in the bay but try to find a shady spot to cast
