Re: To boat or not to boat....

Knowing you, there are really only 2 choices: 1) Take the boat; or 2) Take enough natty light to make you forget that you forgot to take the boat. I think option 1) will probably not land in you in as much trouble as option 2). :smt005 I think you are correct. We compromised. I'm taking the pontoon...

Re: To boat or not to boat....

That's a heck of a drive to go between St Joe and Eco... Call the local places down there and get some ideas for weekly/daily storage rentals you can use. :beer: :beer: :D Oh no, I wasn't doing that. I keep my boat at my little place at Econfina. It would be like leaving it at home and not carrying...

To boat or not to boat....

The family and I will be spending 7/2-7/9 at St. Joe Beach. We usually go the week after the 4th to avoid the crowds and mayhem. This year due to cheer camps and other various activities we had to make an exception. I always take a boat. One problem I have is that the house we rented this year has l...

Re: Econfina 5-28

Yeah I heard mixed reports on the radio. Just couldn't hem them up. We were in the pontoon with the big ol' net casting deck on the front. I get a lot of strange looks.

Econfina 5-28

Fishing was slow for us. Threw the tackle box and the net at 'em. We even threw cooked shrimp left over from a low country boil. :-D Caught some quality fish though. Ran into a big school of mullet a couple miles out from Hickory Mound. They were moving fast. Managed 5 before they disappeared. Picke...

Econfina Mullet

Went down Friday evening to do some maintenance on the camper and to crank the mullet jon. The little 15 fired right up on the 3rd pull. Haven't been cast netting since the week of Thanksgiving so up and at it early Saturday morning. Took a friend of mine from the area with me. Mullet were not thick...
