I have this sand flea/bug rake that I made from a 3" piece of pvc pipe about 8 ft long and has a rectangular deep fryer basket I got from a Mcdonald's trash dumpster attached to the pipe end. It really does the job for geting fresh live bait during the pompano run. But the last few years hasn't been good for getting size and numbers of sand bugs. I was told it was because of all of the beach renourishing. Tons of sand has been piled on top of breeding size bugs and smothered them out. True?
what kind of bait did you use?

@smoothcriminal997 Man why waste such delicious fish on sharks you can easily catch on more bloodier baits.

Your wife is one hell of an angler. Hopefully my GF loves to fish. My dad is looking into buying a Tiara 31' With outriggers and the cobia tower.
