Thanks for all the advice, I just have to try wading more often. When I wade, I usually try to catch a few fish on sand eels just to take the edge of so I don't get skunked then bail out of the boat. I made one wade trip to Mecca AKA Chandeleur Islands - We smacked em but no big fish. Sting rays were everywhere, big sharks too. I made one wade trip to East Cameron Jetties - my friend's son came with cut off shorts, no shoes,no shirt, a old red ambassador reel, his rod had the tip broken off and he caught fish after fish on a double rig with glow/chartreuse cocahoes. He eventually felt sorry for me and gave me some of his baits but I still couldn't catch em like he could. My friend says his kid does that all the time. Guess I'll just keep trying, just keep trying.
