Rockin' the Guitarfish @ South Causeway NSB

Thirty Eight Live Bait shop, or 38 Live, is a highly recommended bait shop if your going to fish New Smyrna Beach. I know they close at 9 PM on Friday nights too. They are located less than a mile from the North Causeway and South Causeway fishing piers. They offer live shrimp in small, medium, large sizes, mullet, pinfish, & mud minnows. They didn't have any live mullet when I was there, but they did have a good deal on live shrimp. It was 50 small shrimp for $5.00

After the bait shop, me and Cody took the short drive to South Causeway fishing pier. I hooked up a live shrimp on each Wild Cat rod and waited. It wasn't long when we got a fish. I reeled in this half shark half stingray looking creature. Seriously it has the rear body of a shark and front body of a stingray. It's called an Atlantic Guitarfish. Cody's taking credit for this catch even though I did all the work. LOL
