Went fishing Saturday night from 11pm to 6am Sunday morning at the Sunset Point Pier. We caught 5 freshwater catfish 7 to 12 inches, and 12 sailcat. We kept 8 or 9 sailcat which were between 18 & 36 inches. All were caught on bottom with fresh shrimp from winn dixie. Now just keep in mind, I dont have those big offshore rod n reels that you typically see at the end of the pier, but Im sure glad I did have 30lb and 80lb EZ braid on my reels because I needed it to keep those beasts out of pilings. I'm telling you those sailcat are fun to catch. One minute you are day dreaming about the Saints upcoming season and the next you notice your pole bent over like you snagged an orca.
Or you see your line has gone slack so you slowly reel down till you feel a little weight, go to set the hook and THUMP!... the no stretch line stops you halfway through your motion and your adrenaline starts to flow. There is a reason I stayed until 6am. -Anotherwhodat 7/28/14
