got it on a mullet flesh bait - fresh though, not servo mullet.

i was a bit surprised actually....my bro and dad have bagged out on snapper/squire in half an hour at harry's before using soft plastics - just using 3-4 inch minnows i think. mostly catch them on the drop

[pinkey]

how hard did you smash him?

[thousandyards]

pushed him down the stairs....broke his hip hahahahahahaha....

nah just kidding. he's a pastor - doesn't pay to tick off his boss hahaha
