oh and the snook and large mouth bass made the so call florida grand slam ... bass, peacock, and snook/tarpon ... it was a small slam since the snook was small lol ... but the large pbass-es made up for it i guess lol

Nice Catches and Nice reel to,I am a big fan of Shimano stradic.
Are you happy with your Shimano stradic C14?
Whats your alround grade for this reel?

I'm a Shimano fan as well as well as G. Loomis lol

The CI4+ 4000 and 2500 are both good reels...other than weight reduction, the performance is comparable to the regular Stradics...I also have a Quantum Smoke PT40...also a great reel...

need to get back down there.
you should...surprisingly active for this time of year...might be a great year as we get warmer...

Caught these big boys in a gated community...my friend's parents live in there and very little if any fishing pressure and appearantly the lakes are deep enough to protect them from the cold snaps a few years back so they never died off there...

That's an awesome days catch, I'm planning on coming down in spring to see what I can get. Do you ever catch any clown knives?


Sent from my iPad using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

no...clown knives are located boca to west palm area....more in boca and boyton...

miami is know for pbass...cichlids

broward has pbass and cichlid in the south and central region and snakeheads in the central and northern region

snook and tarpon is all over but are elusive and people keep the good locations to themselves like their live depended on it...

i don't have a problem letting ppl know where the locations are but over half of them are in gated communities which ppl can gain access if they can find parking elsewhere and don't mind a good walk lol
