I do the 3 or 4 inch gulp swimming mullet with good results. Ive only fished SWP once and had good results on that. I should and hopefully be headed out there this friday, i got some chickenboy lures i need to testout.

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?

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.
