On a whim, set out this am in our Gheenoe, first cast around 9am, back to the dock around 11 am. Three keeper fat trout, no other fish (except one hugh sail cat) no shorts, no other trash. Just the two of us and a great dinner tonight!

Creeks? Cutoff? Paddle out to the flats? Nice trip either way. Congrats on a fine suppa!

First time putting in there, just stared fishing when ever we felt like. Islands and grassy shore near.

We used to call it Williams" Landing when I was growing up.

I've been treated to many flats fishing trips out of Williams Landing, and have put in myself many times but since all I have is a Gheenoe and a Jon I always go up. I'm sure I've said this before but I'm not scared of snakes, gators, half Pirraanah Blackfish infested upper Aucilla spots (lol!) or anything like that but I'm scared stinkbaitless of getting roughed up on the flats.

A few things are shaping up so that I will have time to go fishing this fall though, and I'm trying to warm up to the idea of creek fishing in the Gheenoe. And if that goes well, maybe go on down and snag those mullet I keep hearing about.

By the old Moulmein Pagoda, lookin' eastward to the sea,
There's a Burma girl a-settin', and I know she thinks o' me;
For the wind is in the palm-trees, and the temple-bells they say:
"Come you back, you British soldier; come you back to Mandalay!"
Come you back to Mandalay,
Where the old Flotilla lay:
Can't you 'ear their paddles chunkin' from Rangoon to Mandalay?
On the road to Mandalay,
Where the flyin'-fishes play,
An' the dawn comes up like thunder outer China 'crost the Bay!

I do love Kipling. I read "If" to my grandson last night. We started with Robert Service, "Cremation of Sam McGee".
