Caught my first fish surf fishing Sunday been coming to Perdio Key Fl. For 3 years now spend 5 weeks down here finally hooked up yesterday well worth the wait 40 lb black drum my biggest fish ever.
We are now in the middle of a real norther February 2022, the gulf water is chocolate colored & winds are like a tropical storm. I am now retired and a surf fishing addict on South Padre Island, TX. December 2021 to January 2022 I caught my first surf slot Redfish as well as 3 nice eating sized Florida Pompano in addition to my usual pails of Whiting. When this north blow finally subsides I guess the colder water would be good for paternoster rigs, I like the chartreuse & orange colored beads & a mix of #1 & #2 circle hooks, fresh shrimp, sand fleas, slabs of Whiting or mullet... any other suggestions, what did you get the wonderful Black Drum on, water colder also- February?
