Bulls in the harbor with the bassboat

Went out Saturday in a buddies hydraskiff and the weather killed us. Caught 1 whiting. Sunday was beautiful so I made a run into the harbor with the bassboat because that’s what I have. 2 bulls 35” and 40”. Check out the action. Live finger mullet on chicken rigs and Carolina rigs.

I like that modification to the Carolina rig. I use a similar set up when I’m fishing my heavier rods. The egg sinker can really beat up your main line. Especially if I hook a big ray and have to wrestle him off the bottom.

Yes sir, definitely helps cut down the cost of lead when you’re fishing deep water. Those big sinkers are expensive.

It’s nice to see you taking the bass boat out there. I have an aluminum
Bass boat as well, and while I don’t mind putting it in the salt, the trailer is another story. What type of trailer do you have and where do you put in?

Beneskew I have a regular trailer that comes with a bass boat, it has gotten a lil rusty but oh well not very bad though for having been in and out of salt for 2 years now… I wash the trailer and boat and flush the motor every outing. It’s an old boat 96’ as is motor and trailer. Worst case is I buy a new trailer or replace springs and axel down the road. I put in shem creek usually because I like to fish harbor on slack tides and creeks behind Sullivan’s while the water is moving. Have put in remeleys as well. My buddy used to take a couple jugs of fresh water and rinse his trailer after he launched his bass boat in salt.

Mine is an 09, and the previous owner used it in salt a lot. Have had it out in the salt a time or two. Does just fine on calm days. Nice fish though

Those are some big reds!!! And in a bass boat? More awesome. Nice job. :dizzy_face:

That’s awesome! What water depth were you fishing?

I had a Lowe Bass Boat with the exact same motor for years and fished it in the salt all over the Lowcountry. Not a problem. Great going !!
