April 2nd specks and sheephead
I fished with Walter, Dave and Warren today. Our goal was to just catch fish.
We started out topwater fishing with 7m mirrolures using a twitch pause twitchx2 pause. This resulted in several specks with this nice 17″ speck caught by Warren.
Topwater action did not last long and we were off to the Pass. We rigged up with 17lb floracarbon leader, 2 oz weight and a number 2 circle hook baited with a piece of shrimp. We then dropped the rig straight down and quickly had strikes. We let the sheephead run with the hook until it was set. This went on for a couple of hours resulting in a nice box of fish.
Below is our stringer with Walter, Dave and Warren:
