I have two buddies that have landed 3 this year over here in Pensacola/Navarre from their kayaks. I personally had one with my bait in its mouth but couldn't get the hook in it. Also had the friend of a friend land one from his kayak in gulf shores yesterday.
What tackle would be needed to get a sail pierside? When one is spotted, do people reach for their king rods? I've never really put much thought into this since it seems fairly rare.
best gulf pier fishing.
Looks like there has been quite a few around..
Your biggest rod and a whole lotta luck.Quote:

How do they rate as table fare and what is the size limit?
I hear they're pretty good smoked. Don't know the size limit. I wouldn't keep one anyhow, just take some photos.
If they are in the shadow of the pier..they are "caught" - cut them loose, let them live. Give thanks for the opportunity.
My 2 pence.
I have seen a few fishing the pcb pier, before the gulf shores rebiuld.....hopefully see a couple this trip.....always for me was in the fall before the water temps started to drop.....very neat watching them from above on the pier, with multiple hook ups by a few
King rod is plenty to stop a sail. If you didnt notice the guy in the video is using a 706 greenie. Garbage bags are built for speed not powerQuote:
