good questionif the water depth is 20 feet or less i like using a 1 to 2 oz jig head. if water is deeper then i go to a 2 to 3 oz jig head. we usually just drop down and bounce of the bottom.

if the fish have been coming to the surface u can troll these jigs and do very well.

next question!

Hey wes!

I saw you out there on 11/21 and figured you were targeting the bull reds but we decided to keep on moving.. one quick question though..

When you were jigging those gulps down deep for those bull reds.. What Oz. jig head you using?!?! Assuming probably 2-4 oz. jig heads?? Do you just keep bouncing while drifting? or creating action while retrieving?

thanks!

on the 16th we found the gulf very calm but was late for the big bite. we started trolling 2 oz jigs with 4 inch berkley gulps and hooked up three reds landing two.

on the 18th we found the gulf rough and went instead for trout. we used 1/4 oz jigs with 3 inch berkley gulps. yes...we wore them out! here is chris and doug with a big stringer.

on the 20th we braved the seas and went on out for some bullredfish action. we quickly hooked up with blakes 21 lb redfish!

everybody caught one. here is ryan and david with theirs!

the 21st we caught alot of trout (see at capt wes' fishing report on his website). then we jigged up some hogs in pensacola bay using 4" berkley gulps.

here is justin fighting his big 19 lb red...

here is tyler with a 23 lb redfish

it was four great days of fishing!
