Ooh, the water was REALLY rough higher up. Stirred up the sand to the point of everything being brown and a high tide to boot. Things calmed down when I was leaving around 5. Thank god for those sputniks that mankees sells otherwise would have been unfishable. Planning to head back on good friday hopefully.

Went out today...tarpon bite was slow, only got one about 30lbs...got my first redfish on ah spoon though as well as some small cavali...

[proton17]

Dat redfish was in shallow water or deep water?

[ryan99tt]

Shallow, was just throwing some small lures and spoons around some islands...

Tha's interesting, walliack on artificial.

[reeLpACE]

Ive also caught them on crystal minnows before in shallow rocky areas, especially around points during tide changes is when they really turn on
They also take small poppers....

Anybody fish today?

[Hyperion]

I fish in the gulf today, water was real real choppy, breeze was hard all day. Me and a next man only hold 7 walliack and 2 salmon. The biggest walliack had some size though, almost 4 pounds, took a line that was fishing by itself with a slab of herring on a big hook.

When we came back to the Felicity marina we realize other men catch their rass too, one other boat went deep in the Gulf to bank and only held 1 lucky carite as the line and bait was sinking. Another boat went by the Caroni river to catch grantekai and came back empty handed.

Anyone seen the glowing plankton in Manzanilla bridge?... (Or Mafikin i dunno)... Going up tonight to see them... Here's what they look like...



The scientific name for them are 'Bioluminescent'... Anyone up dey tonight we go bounce...

[*KRONIK*]

is that what it is???

i keep hearing about this "light in the water" from various people all week.
my auto electrician even told me about it yesterday, said it a big glowing light IN the river...

i may make a pass thru to see it...depending on the time runs today...
i hear the "locals" wanna charge ppl $$$ to see it....

[-Roach-]

Will be there around 6:30PM till... Gonna see if i can get a few crab before as well....

[*KRONIK*]

Ok cool

Well crab on the menu today!

I go see how the weather looking...
It only stopping and drizzling in grande today

[*KRONIK*]

-Roach- u end up going to see the thing??

[innovative audio]

Saw tht bio luminescence thing with the water. It was really cool

[*KRONIK*]

No pics??

[-Roach-]

No pics??

Was a bit disappointed... There were so much people there and the only way to see them glowing is if there was movement in the water... A couple of locals was asking for ah $10 each to JUMP OFF the bridge.... Only then will you see the glowing plankton... And while they were swimming you would see them glowing a light green-ish color...

Tried to take pics from the bridge but it was impossible to get the shot... Guy even brought his Cannon HD cam and had no luck getting the shot as well... You would have to go see it for yourself... It rel decent... By 10:30PM everyone by the Mafikin bridge left and place was calm.... Youth men and them make a good change yes cuz people actually paid them to jump...

[pororoca]

Saw this a couple months ago while passing through a river in central... Was blue in color. Around the propeller looked like neon lights.

[krazed]

Bought this Fin Nor this week, a Lethal 80 with 40lbs max drag. Hoping to try it out soon. I paid US 83 (TT535) for it but I can't understand how Customs charged me. They charged me $30 duty and $27 vat. They should have charged me vat only which would have been about $80, go figure.

Anybody does follow Alan Hawk reel reviews?

http://www.alanhawk.com/reviews/lists.html

This reel made his list of top reels under US $100, the Penn Battle too.

I used it last month, no big fish as yet, but the drag smooth like butter and it nice and light for the size.
