Not many reports over on the GSPPF This was from last Wed...Probably not too many reports since then with the storm roughing the Gulf up a bit Well I went after class at 1220 today. Got there and watched a huge squaw line (thunderstorm) go completely around us. I could see the rain hitting 98 and not a drop on me. Wind picked up and the waves were rolling very good. LY's, threadfin, small, medium and large hardtails, AND cigar minnows if you could snag them) were available for an enterprising fisherman When I got out on the Octagon 1 king had been stolen by flipper and two others broke a leader or cut the line. Dolphins were a pain and sharks were there but I never had problems. Just before the wind died a king came over the rail about 20#s but then nothing till about 630ish when a spanish was brought over while racing flipper for it. Ramora were a huge issue like Ive never seen before. They were attacking everything from diamond jigs to x-raps and of course all natural bait too.
I left about 815 p.m. when it got too dark to really fish. Looked on the Pensacola Pier Fishing forum and last report there was back in July

After watching a few YouTube videos I’ve noticed they all use sand fleas and they hammer anything from blackfish to bull reds. Definitely gunna use them and shrimp Sandfleas are MUCH easier to locate at night.

I fished over there a few times during the oil spill being our pier was shut down. It was a blast from the past, took over a hour to get past the pier house due to seeing Patsy, Moore, and Frank putting around on his scooter. The last time I fished over there was after Fredrick when we got destroyed. I have an old black & white photo somewhere from the early 70's with around twenty long haired dudes with cutoff blue jeans standing ON the rail during cobia season, were you one of those guys?

I could very well be in that picture. We all stood on the rail and cobia fished backed then. Patsy has moved to Georgia and her health will no longer allow her to fish. Frank passed away a long time ago. If you find the picture, post it up. I would love to look at it.

I actually wrote a book on how to fish our Gulf Coast piers, but am currently sold out. When I finally decide to have new copies printed, I will gladly send some of you “newcomers” a free copy. I'd love to buy a copy. Please let me know when it is available. My brother is moving there from Reno NV and I'd love to get a copy for him.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

I’d be interested in one as well I’m having some more printed up. They should be ready in a week or so.

Many decades ago saw some dudes catch a 14 ft. tiger shark off there. They used to allow shark fishing at night and those dudes would catch some monsters. They would leave a loaded 30:30 along the rail by the beach so when they would lead the shark up to the beach they would shoot him and then a guy would wade out into the surf to wrangle the shark to the beach. They somehow winched that 14 footer up hanging from the pier for people to look at. It was huge.
One evening also saw a giant hammerhead swim right under the pier the head looked 4 feet across. Amazing.

I'd like a copy too. I was in Destin last week and we were on motorcycles. Checked out several out of the way fishing spots. Couldn't take my rod this time. May have to find a way to get it down there next time.
