Went out of mashes sands today and fished the bay. Water is still pretty dark. In 1.5 feet of water I can barely see the bottom. Fish didn't seem to care what color the water was.

Trout, red fish and a couple of jacks. A lot of short fish but fun anyways.

I fished Saturday, first time in two months. The water coming out of the St Marks and Wakulla rivers is much clearer now, the brown coffee is gone. Off shore is still a little dark and not so clear.
I didn't have any luck on trout in the flats southeast of the light house, but did run into some nice 20+ inch mackerel off shore at the reefs within 5-10 miles out, beautiful low wind day.

I went out of Bottoms Friday and Saturday and the water was still dark, but you could still see bottom in 2 foot of water. Got my limit of Reds Friday and a two person limit on Saturday with the wife :thumbup: Got the Reds before 8:30 both morning, but Trout was hard to find. Spanish was everywhere "BIG SPANISH" and I kept one of them. :beer:
