- Background
- My father was in the Navy and he loved to be on the water and fish. As a kid, we would go to Panama City and camp in a VW bus. We would spend our time fishing the Gulf. I spent many days fishing for Catfish, Bream, Crappie, Trout, and Bass in the freshwater lakes and streams in my native North Georgia. But none of that seemed to compare to the salt air, blue water, and catching the biggest fish I had ever caught. I was "hooked". Every opportunity I had I would head to Destin to fish. Fast forward many years, my wife and I got married on the beach at San Destin. We both loved the area and became determined to relocate here. In 2015 we purchased a home in Niceville, downsized dramatically, and now make it our home. Fortunately for me, my wife loves to fish, and we head out any chance we can get.
- Techniques
- Bottom fish, bottom, fish, bottom fish, with some trolling thrown in. I am a person that gets easily bored. With that being said, trolling can become a little boring, Granted there are fish to be caught with that method, and I do catch fish trolling, but I prefer the action of bottom fishing.
