    Our platform is in 200 feet of water, so about the same depth. I have never had any luck with jigs on the bottom. May have to try again. I use diamond jigs, and real them as fast as I can coming up and I can catch a amber jack almost every time, if the damn Jack Cravelle don't get it first.

    Thanks Evo. We actually had another one almost the exact same weight plus scamp grouper (the best grouper) up to 12lbs and another gag that was just under 20lbs.
    When all said and done, each team member went home with $1200.00
    That's going into my tractor fund.
    Lady, we were truly blessed that day.

    I really miss the ocean! But, by and large, I like being free more! And it's only 6 hours to Rockporr. Gonna try and get some speckled trout this year to add to my list.

    Onestep, thanks for the pictures. Awesome catch and reward! Oh and you too Helomech, like the fish pics. We've been fishing the bay here and getting the Reds, Trount, and Flounder. Going to do some surf fishing the next few days and see if I can find the Pompano.
    Don't wrestle with pigs; you'll get all muddy and the pigs will love it!
