#19 post was from one of my twins, they are way into fishing. I remember fishing on Sailors Choice, boat out of Key Largo, you could see fish all the way to the bottom about 60', the challenge was getting your bait to the kind of fish you wanted, grouper and yellowtail snapper.

I've never been saltwater fishing, though I'd like to try. Right now I love trout fishing though. Gotta love standing in or beside a stream and having a small fish put up a huge fight!

If the kids are involved and having a good time, that's good enough for me. Artificials are great fun; no "Eeuuww, wooorms..."

But I prefer salt.

Whatever pulls my string!

Andy has a similar way as you FGM, he put's his finger in the water, and wait's for somethibg to pull it.

something

I'll have to say Fresh.

There is nothing better than hooking up on some large mouths during spawn. That is a blast!!!

Or better yet, watching your child wear out a bream bed. There have been times when I couldn't take the fish off and put the cricket on fast enough.

Salt is fun, but I've always seen less action on the big water. I may be using the wrong charters.

Now brackish(sp) salt and fresh is the most fun I've ever had. Fishing the marsh in LA is something all should try. Hooking a red fish on bass tackle is one crazy fight.

Oh, and I'm only 2.5 hours from the Gulf.
