Where is the bait barge located?

Near the entrance of the harbor.

It's about 100 yards inside the mouth of the harbor. You can't miss it. There will be a bunch of ppl around it in skiffs that they resented from Daveys Locker and sea dogs all around it

I need to get more observant I guess. I was fishing out from the Coast Guard Station on Friday and didn't see it. I could see the mouth of the harbor so I must have been near. What sized scoop do you get for our kayak bait tanks, the five gallon tank? I think it may be fun to leave the harbor and troll for bonita.

On a good day when the fish are feeding you can get into a grand slam on the bass around that barge. Now granted the fish aren't very big, but if numbers is your thing then you'll have a blast.
