Chickenboys in the red/white tail and the chartreuse color but kept getting hung up. Didn't bring anything else and the small bait shop only had dead shrimp. I might have had one when I was reeling in in the shrimp but wasn't sure. I'll probably pick up some gulp, probably going tomorrow evening for a few hours. It closes at 6 right?

Near the submarine and then to the left of the pier. i think the less rocky areas were already taken though.

IF YOURE GOING TO FISH INSIDE THE PARK .I THINK YOU BE BETTER OFF USING LIVE MULLET AND GET THERE EARLY.THE GOOD SPOTS GET FILLED UP REAL QUICK.ALSO YOURE REALLY LIMITED TO BE CASTING AND RETRIEVING LURES WHEN YOU'RE FISHING A HOT SPOT.IT GETS TO CROWDED.PEOPLE NEXT TO YOU AND A WADER IN FRONT OF YOU 5 FEET AWAY.ESPECIALLY IF YOU HOOK A FISH.
