Any tips for fishing the St marks reefs? last couple of times I went I only caught bsb? Is that's all that's out there? been using squid as bait bottom fishing. Also Have thought about going to rotary reefs. which one do you think is better fishing? Im in a smaller boat so I don't think I should go any farther than that.

Just curious, how far out is the St. Marks reef?

What kind of boat are you in?
Also... skip the squid. Go with Artificial Jigs, unless you can grab some live bait (cast net or sabiki-esque) and grab some pinfish and mullet!

Have a live pinfish freelined and one 5-10 feet under the boat and you may get lucky on a cobia. Good luck
