With the banks so close to shore and the rich waters of the Gulf Stream behind you, you'll spend more time fishing and less time getting out there. Once you're over the prime fishing grounds, you'll be dropping cut bait down to the ocean floor, where it will attract bites from cruising bottomfish. Once they're on, it's all you!
