Re: Ladyfish
with the size I usually get (about 14-15 inches), I just cut the head off, cut off the tail fin, and use the rest. with a bigger, fatter ladyfish over 20 inches, that is two good pieces of bait right there. if it is frozen it will still work too, as long as it still looks and smells right. ladyfish is good bait but isn't my top choice though, i have used it more than anything else because it is most often available, yet have caught just as much on other surf species like jacks, black drum, mackerel, blue runner, whiting, ect.

Re: Ladyfish
You can see them splashing on the surface occasionally at the piers. Try the inlets as well, like boca. but they arnt the type of fish that you can predict where they're gonna be.snookabuser wrote:Never caught any ladyfish in broward.

Re: Ladyfish
try your luck there. but be careful of the rocks, they are unforgiving.snookabuser wrote:Hmm might head out to boca inlet to get a few.
as a matter of fact, dont even go on them, just stand from the shoreline and cast out some spoon. make sure to give a report if you end up going, i havnt been there in months...

Re: Ladyfish
The tough part is hooking them, they seem to play a game, which one can get closest without getting hooked.

Try using a single hook instead of a treble.
