Anyone ever used this set up?

I did but never got anything ,but that was only once i used it

[todd61]

fish was real biting in the gulf weekend,
all kinds too, banking as well not only carite
friend with boat said there like 30 boats there
he literally run out of bait by 11am

Which part in de gulf?

[pugboy]

in the middle where the tankers park and where they normally catch the carite

[DrunkenMaster16]

Anyone ever used this set up?

Yes... grouper and eel's some red fish etc.. good for banking in somewhat rocky banks with 50+ lb line.

used that setup a few times, was ok... didn't "feel the bite" as much but when a fish went for rocks it didn't buss 1/2 as easily as a basic line setup (not sure how the braided compares but i'd think it'll work better still in said conditions.) where yuh bankin an when? i'll bring d rum.

Anyone ever used this set up?

I normally use this for more rocky areas but yeah you dont normally feel the bite on it.
(I assuming this i the wire) There is a nylon one as well I find better to work with.
I'll try to post a pic.

What pound line you all use on your rods? Say medium to heavy action?

My 8 ft casting rod has 14 lb line...
small penn has 30 lb test
big penn has 50lb test

20 - 50 id say medium
50 - 100 heavy but some people use 100 lb +...i don't find that fun.

[drop ho]

There is a saying the lighter the line more bite you get as it is harder to see.
Ofcourse to land might take a little more skill as line will break quicker.
Currently using 14lb as well. Going to try 10lb

[ryan99tt]

ah 30lb line in my opinion is great for trolling...if yuh goin behind wahoo, go higher like 50-60lb and for jigging, yuh need at least 80-100lb braid...kepp fishing...

[evil_twin]

Nice vid. but a question. Do most people eat the Tarpon?

Here in grenada it is not really eaten, I have tried it but personally do not like the flesh especially all the bones. It is a great fighting fish though.

Also has anyone tried Jigging for fish in the 150' to 200' range.? Am thinking of getting into it once i can get the boat engine repaired and get a good fish finder.

I am not really a conservationist but I must say, those Tarpons are really small and will not be good to eat (plenty bones). They are good game fish and should be caught and released to get more size... The big ones have plenty meat and I can understand keeping those (80lbs +)

I know a fisherman who caught 11 Tarpon, ranging from 100lbs to 250lbs. Ran out of storage and couldn't give away any so he ended up dumping 7 of them in the cane fields.... A couple months later he and his crew disappeared mysteriously, no boat was ever found till about a year later when a trawler dragged up the wreck. Nature has a way of getting back at you!!!

Usually when we catch we keep only the ones that are 100lbs and over and catch only enough for the family or to share with the village.

looking to head up that side for the wknd
what bait the brochet/snook taking?
you fishing from the beach near the mouth or in the river mouth itself?

[jramsarran]

ok ok ....who say boshey / snook???

hold dat!!

[reeLpACE]

ok brudda ya win lol

give a brudda some tips.....

[ryan99tt]

nice snook bro...all the tarpon dat we caught were given away within 2 days and those size tarpon are great size for eating...i dont find there are much bones and anyway any fish that lives in the water for a longer time have higher levels of lead in them, so dey ah little worst to eat...on the other hand, with jigging...i tried once so far with my new jigging tackle and i expect to catch sumthing big wen i go across tobago...dont forget to like and subscribe to my channel on youtube for more vids...
