What is the best place and time of year to catch a 40+ pound fish. I don't care type and can't afford a lot.

thanks

Now until December sling a half cut mullet out in the second gut of the surf. Something there should be willing to stretch your string.

I don't know squat about sea fishing....Looking for cheap charter place

I would try a jetty charter around now for bull redfish, a black drum trip in march, or a nearshore trip in hot summer when the sharks and kings are plentiful. Any of those can be had for basically the same cost as a bay trip but 40lb is a big fish. You have a good chance of catching something that size but smaller will be the norm.

Thanks all

Going coastal this weekend in sw La. Come get you some bull red action. Bring nancy baby....
