Me and a friend were fishing out around Marker 24 several years ago. It was in August best I remember and hot as blazes so my friend decided he wanted to take a dip off the boat. I warned him about the strong current and when he dove in he came up some distance from the boat due to the current. He s...

Are the sand trout still around in #'s around the Shell Point and Ochlocknee Bay area?

Thanks Silverking, that's exactly what I was needing to know. Looks like it will be Rock Landing Ramp for me.

Was wondering if you could launch a 20' bay boat at the Ochlockonee Bay Boat Ramp on the SW side of the bridge at say mid-tide or higher? If so would it require a four-wheel drive truck to do so? Just looking on google earth it appears the ramp is covered in sand at a lower tide. Not sure if that's ...

Check that.....didnt realize this was a article from 2018.

This article in the Wakulka news says the ramp is closed for dredging and may open on March 20 (weather permitting). Anyone know if the dredging is vomplete?

That sounds promising. Hope to get down there one more time in the next few weeks. Thank for reporting.

I fish this area several times a year and was wondering how the bottom topography might have been affected by the storm? I've seen a report where ancient ships have been unearthed on Dog Island so I can only imagine that underwater reefs, inshore bars, etc are probably rearranged . Also was wonderin...

That's GREAT fishing for this time of year....great job!

Nice catch on the Goliath. Those things are getting to be too plentiful and maybe time for a season IMO. Where were ya'll fishing out of if you don't mind me asking?

We had the same issue with Goliath's and sharks a couple of weeks ago out of Lanark in state waters. Had (2) gags bit in half on way up and also hooked a couple of those freight trains (Goliaths). They seem to be getting pretty abundant. I heard there might be a lottery or something to start taking ...

Now that's a great trip! Do you mind sharing the approx depth you were in and how far out. The reason I ask is that I too have a bay boat and am limited as to how far I can go out.

We fished out of Rock landing in the Shell Point area on Friday (4/13) and only managed 6 keeper trout, 2 flounder, and 1 nice Spanish with only a few shorts. We also fished some bars for reds for a couple hours with zero results. The water was really murky from all the churning from the winds and t...

Here's one from the past....the Cocahoe Minnow!

Not sure about the full length version of the trailer hitch deal but google the one where the snake falls out of the tree on top of him in the boat.....talk about hilarious!
