Tell him to put some jello shots on the end and reel in all the hotties.

We are going next week. Never fished there before. Have you had luck in the past.

Tried a search, didnt see much.

Never surf fished. Guess Ill just let him try some shrimp, cut bait, or cracked crab on a kingfish leader with a 2 oz weight and 8/0 hook.

Bingo.

Pic of where I am staying in Destin... what type of setup & bait would you use?
Destin Bait and Setup discussion

quote:

I don't know about Louisiana, but off Destin/ PCB/ Pensacola this time of year they really prefer live bait. At least fresh bait. I'm guessing because it's so prevalent. I've been out in May and early June and same thing, can't get a bite on dead bait but live bait gets hammered.

Discussion about charters in the PCB/Destin area.

Destin Inshore fishing discussion - Consensus is to save your money.

Another inshore fishing discussion - PCM. Consensus is pretty good fishing.

Beach fishing advice - MS.

Another MS beach fishing thread.

Bass fishing in Sandestin.

Lots of good stuff found by search function.
Anyway. I hope you enjoy the trip. Make sure everything he catches meets the legal limit....
Including those hotties. Sometimes close inspection is required.
