There are several ways to make two drop rigs for mingo and triggerfish. The bead rig and the dropper loop rig. In both cases my rigs are 36 inches long and have swivels on each end so there is no top or bottom, both ends are the same.

Swordfish are primarily considered nocturnal feeders. In recent years we have found they do feed in the day time, but instead of feeding near the surface less than 300ft deep where they migrate to at night, they are feeding at depths in excess of 200ft deep. Swords can be caught year-round, but we find the best and most consistent action between....

Here along the Emerald Coast we have a opportunity for some of the most exciting fishing you'll ever do. While we catch cobia all year when bottom fishing, during the spring the cobia migrate along the coast in the shallows heading to the Louisiana delta to spawn from March to mid-May, and some years until June. Most of the cobia are caught after sight-casting on the fish as they migrate by in 10ft to 60ft of water. The emerald green water makes this exciting fishery possible.
Fishing for king mackerel is without doubt one of the most popular types of fishing along the Florida Panhandle. The kings usually arrive in late March when water temps reach 68 degrees and stay until mid-November. They are relatively easy to catch with some good techniques. They can be caught trolling or drifting. You can catch them on live, frozen baits and with a variety of lures.
Red Snapper are one of the most sought after, and definitely one of the top targets of all anglers along the Florida Panhandle. Recent years have seen a huge increase in size and numbers.
