Re: First Time Fishing Low Tide in Winter - Learning Occurred
There are several forum members that can, and do access those creeks at low tide that aren’t in airboats What type of boat are you using to get up in there? He fishes with me out of a 15' G3. Yes the boat helps but having an intimate knowledge of the area is also key. I've been fishing those creeks...

Re: Dehookers/hook remover
It's easy to bend a light wire hook with one but I've never bent my dehooking devises before. Have one for inshore and a longer one for offshore. The best way to use it is to hook on to the outside of the hook (opposite side of the hooks bend). Make sure the the point of the dehooker is closest to t...

Re: Dehookers/hook remover
I've been using one of those stainless steal tube spring ones for years and they are the best you can buy. I just went on-line to look for them so I could give you a link to the exact one I use but could find it. There are a lot on the market now that are similar but they all have one BIG issue. The...

Re: Stuck shotgun choke
Thanks for the advise guys. Ended up putting some WD40 (what I already had) in a tomato paste can and soaked the barrel in it for a couple of day. Then heated the barrel and it came out without much of an issue.

Stuck shotgun choke
As the title states, I have a choke that is stuck in one of my shotguns. I was think about soaking it in some type of oil for a few days before tying to get it loose again. What do you guys think would be the best type of oil to use. Didn't know if something like Liquid Wrench would mess up the blui...

Re: Negative low tides
I've done it many times although it's been a while. At a negative tide you would have to drag your kayak a good ways through pretty nasty mud. I would wait until you have .5 or more of water before doing so. Also if you are looking at the tide times for SM lighthouse it is about 1.5-2 hours later in...

Re: St Marks weekend -- tough fishing
We made a quick morning trip down to SM Saturday. Fished for about 3 hours up in the marsh. I landed 11 or 12 healthy trout while my fishing buddy got 2 decent reds, a 16" flounder and a couple trout too. All on artificial and everything released except the flounder.

Re: Trailer hub recommendation
If one is failing then the other one isn't far behind so do what Dave suggested, replace them both. I order bearings from eTrailer.com . They also sell the complete hub assemble which is a little easier to install. Both are easy to do your self but you can always drop it off to be fixed too. Besides...

Re: Rod Repair
Second Jims outfit. But never had a rod repaired only reels. A friend had an eye replaced at Kevin’s and it was terrible. Rough edges everywhere. Looked like a 5 year old did it. I would not recommend going there for any rod or reel repair Was it perfect, No but it wasn't that bad either. It works ...

Saturday morning
Put in Saturday morning at the Lighthouse around safe light. We landed 20-25 mid slot reds along with a few trout. We found a place that didn't have too much floating grass and was able to use topwater plugs most of the morning. Got back to the landing just before noon and was amazed my the number o...
