    I’d bring a castnet as well. Lot of cool things caught in them which your kids would enjoy.

    Throw an orange jerk bait for peacocks. You can only keep 2 I think. When you find them you can catch one every cast. A big one is 2 pounds but they are fun to catch. They’re a beautiful fish and no 2 look exactly the same.
    Oscars are probably even more fun to catch. They’ll bite anything. But crickets are hard to beat. Take twice as many as you think you need.

    I actually got some good info from a bass guide at the ramp. They are not secretive at all there.

    I have a buddy that goes down there and he orders rubber crickets off of Amazon and 1 will last prob for a dozen or so bites before they have been torn apart. Take plenty of hooks too, as he said the Oscar's will bend hooks up hitting them so hard.
