Been going to Mexico Beach for years and years.
Ok, so just over a year ago I was asking for some Gulf fishing advise on here with my small 15 footer (AKA: Death Trap in the Gulf). Since then I have upgraded to a 19' Carolina Skiff 198 w/115hp Yamaha. The draft on these boats is typically 4-8" so can definitely get into shallow if need be. Not looking to travel MILES offshore, even in calm waters. Would rather stick fairly close to shore....few miles MAX.
I'd like to take my son (who is 7 years old) down to Mexico Beach, Port St Joe area and try our luck during the Christmas break he has from school.
Not terribly concerned about quality fish, so long as we catch fish....big or small --- doesn't matter. Going to QUANITY, not necessarily QUALITY. Wouldn't mind landing some medium size shark either.
WE ARE CATCH AND RELEASE...............
Last year, used GULP shrimp and sand fleas. And caught fish, but not in huge quantity. would like to catch MORE.
Suggestions from the experts of this area....?
