I get that question asked by many. You need to dress for the occasion on this fishing trip. (Above) Many on this trip are very powerful man belonging to such groups as Freemasons & others Secret Societies . Come correct on this trip or have your Rods/Gear missing or worst case scenario- YOU with heavy feet. They work fast so be on your guard at all times. If I can give you one more advice is to rent the movie, the Usual Suspects.

Ask away Singleshot. I think some one posted a link to a good thread on jigging, it should be on one of these threads.

Rare, Is that a sharkskin suit?

Thanks for all the replies, I will have a lot of questions, never fished the Selegs b/4 so I don't even know if my feet will be wet or dry!

Merry Christmas to all!

Mr. Bill- I see that you are not a first timer in these parts of the waters. You will fit right in with this group 8) Your Alligator shoes will be as dry as the first day you got them. :wink:

Singleshot, the boat is pretty high in the water but it doesn't hurt to bring some type of boat shoes that will keep your feet a bit dry.

OK Rob762, Russ/go4em, and I have a deposit on the first 3 spots from the stern corner. Pretty sure they will only be booking one side of the boat so get your deposit in quick for a good spot. (Not that there's a bad one)

"Boots , shorts and no shirt... Hey Pat, do they have beer?"

I hope we can dress like that! I know it got really cold last winter here in Okeechobee, down below freezing. I'll just check the weather report and I'll know if I need to bring some warm clothes. I am NOT going to wear that Searsucker suit from Cox's as Rare suggested!

Would you guys help me out with some tackle suggestions?

I have 6' and 7' Penn Slammer rods rated up to 50lbs that I think would be ok for jigging.
Also have a 2 speed Penn 12 reel and an Accurate Boss Mag, 6 to 1 gear ratio, these reels may be a little heavy for jigging all day, what do you think?

What do you reccomend for line? I plan on spooling up with spectra and use a flourocarbon leader. What pound tests would be right for this trip?

I plan on getting some Williamson Vortex jigs as suggested earlier in this post. Would some heavy leadhead bucktails with gulp curly tails attached be usefull? What are your favorite jigs and colors?

Are bite offs a problem and if they are would short wire leaders be usefull?

I guess out there in the ocean we could see just about any kind of fish! Do you keep a rod ready in case we would run into a school of tuna or see a wahoo or dolphin cruising. If so, what would you use, spinning or conventional and how would you rig, including lure?

That's all for now, I'm sure that I'll think of some more questions later. Thanks in advance for your help,

Bill :happyfisherman:

I'll let others comment on the gear, but for line I would go with at least 50 lb braid with a 3 to 4 foot Fluoro leader of 65 or better. For the next few trips I'll be using my 870 spooled with 65 braid and a 65 fluoro leader on a 7' 30-60 Chaos. Not ideal but the 2 speed reel should help if I manage to hook into a bigger fish. I'm working on a spinner setup now but that will depend on delivery for this weekend, I will have it for the 29th. I got one good hookup on Reward, and that fish chewed through my 40 lb fluoro in less than a minute. 40 sounds big, but for this it's just not enough IMHO.

Paid! 8)

Bill, I am new to this jigging but have two trips under my belt. I'm closing in in what I want. Both are heavy reels for jigging all day as we are planning on doing & are not meant for jigging. The slammer rod IMHO will either snap with the type of jigging we are doing. The Boss Reel is high speed & you really want a low speed reel. The VSX (is it mapped out?) will be good cause of the low ratio, but still heavy. Bring both of them reels & look at least for a rod is not costly just in case you might not like jigging you don’t break the bank. Bring a spinner 20lb- with at least 2-3ft+ of leader in the 40-50lb to pitch a hoo at fins if they are there.
