Re: Thoughts on chartplotter/sonar

Not the most tech savvy guy around but the times I tried using my ipad it would overheat in the sun. It would actually shut down on me. I do not have a t top.

Re: Fish bit someone at St marks sandbar

Been fishing the St Marks area for 15 years and have always caught a few spiny puffers but only in the last two years have I been catching the smooth skin SOB's.

Re: Fish bit someone at St marks sandbar

Are they a non-native invasive species. What I mean is, should I bash them with a bat?

Re: St. Mark’s 5/15

Not as knowledgable as some others on here but when you start using swimbaits on jigheads and/or mirrolures you will pick up larger fish.

Re: Bainbridge to Apalach

If possible make time to cut over into the dead lakes. It's approx 2/3 of the way down. That was beautiful. Good fishing also.
Have Fun and be safe

Re: Bainbridge to Apalach

I made the trip approx 10 years ago and fished my way down there. I took 2 days to get there and slept on a beach area about halfway down the river. Be careful of shallow areas. They sneak up on you pretty quick in some spots. It's a beautiful trip but make sure you are prepared. A lot of places hav...

I needed that. Just laughed my ass off at the mental image of a bunch of flaming armadillos running around setting crap on fire.

Re: Fish finder advice needed

I will add my 2 cents worth. I have a lowrance and can attest to their horrendous customer service. When I first purchased my unit 3 years ago it would not hold bottom. After working with support for a few weeks it was finally determined I needed to send the unit back for repair/replacement. 5 weeks...

Re: Apalachicola River

I made the run from Lake Seminole to the bay about 8 or 9 years ago. Took my time and fished my way down camping on a beach about halfway down overnight. Fantastic trip. The river does have hazards to include logs/stumps/shallow areas. Fishing was pretty good for me but I primarily focused on cats. ...

Re: 24 in Gag at Rotary Reef

All depends on who checks you. I was checked last year on the flats out of St Marks and the FWC officer measured a fish at 15 1/4 when I mentioned that is my minimum. He said if the mouth is closed and the tail touches that 15 line at any part "throw it on ice".

Great job getting a kid out and involved. My son is now 16 and still has fun catching ladyfish. To be honest, so do I.

Re: Scalloping......

St Marks is barren of scallops. None at all. A few people staying at the fish camp made the drive to Steinhatchee.

Fishing Line

Just looking for some input on fishing lines. I almost exclusively use braid when trout fishing on the flats. The reason for this is that the stretch with mono makes me have to make a big swinging hookset rather than a short forearm hookset with braid. I want to use mono but haven't found one that d...
