What is a Googan?

I still like the guy last summer bottom fishing inside the yellow lines with a 10/0 Electric reel, battery and all, along with two other lines out.

Gentlemen, thank you. It is 19 degrees up here and snowing. You certainly brightened my day.

Thanks for the insult saltfisher. I guess we're just not as good as you.

I think he has pier envy or maybe erectile fishing rod dysfunction.

actually were trying to catch ling,spanish,kings,reds,specks,flounder,sheepshead ,mangrove snapper,bluefish,tarpon,pompano,mullet,...... the list goes on and on we have a more variety because on the pier we cover more water unless you yak your baits out which is to much work for me personally. and we dont get sandy or wet which do you think is worth it?

I travel 850 miles just to do this....what a bargain at 8.00 to stand elbow to elbow with fellow fisher's and try and catch those fish all day....heck it is cheap compared to the several thousand I spend to be there....that would be cheaper if I came alone....got to make the bride & grandkids happy :poke1:
I guess pier fishing isn't for everyone....but I sure love it, and that is just part of it...whether i am catching,gaffing or netting....sometimes just watching all the young ones having fun ....what a bargain

1 speck of sand in your reel will be very bad....just saying....I don't care for sand and fishing
