The storms do push a lot of sand in with them. Some places are more shallow now.

The storms do push a lot of sand in with them and make the water more shallow. A lot of places have changed over the years.

I didn't know he died either, sorry to hear about him. I'm pretty sure he's the guy that helped me at the landing after my partner swiped a pole with my trailer and pinned the fender on my tire. he was a real nice fella.

Great report, yall did real good! I had heard the fish are out deep now, we used to catch them at Aucilla in 12-13 ft. in the hot summertime.

Saltydog, I was there yesterday and had similar results. Fished from the fort all the way to marker 39 and never got a bite. I threw jigs, Gulp shrimp tipped with shrimp, a mirrolure, and a gold DoA shrimp and nothing. I would have been glad to catch 3 sand trout, I was skunked and left about 12:30 ...

Those big trout get big by being smart, they seem to know how to throw hooks better than the rest. Live pins are the best bait for bigguns, go out and try to catch you another one!

Nice! Did any of yall see what the new regs for flounder are now? I think it is 5 for recreational anglers now and 14'' min. size.

Got to go last Fri. while the water was really low, put in at 10a and tide still falling. Nothing happened until about 2:30 when tide started moving, ended up with 3 nice keepers and caught many just-shorts.I had some fat ones that were 14 3/4'' :cry: . White gulp seemed to work best. Haven't been ...

Nicely done! Good to hear they are in the river now. Any particular bait work best?

Great job on the fish and taking time out with the kids! I know they had a blast.

Be careful out there. Water gets skinny on low tides this time of year, esp. with a north wind like we had on Saturday. It blew a lot of the water out overnight. :o I almost took my boat out Sat. and decided to pier fish a deep river instead. You could try going out later in the day with the ...

Nice fishes!! That is a nice doormat you caught, too!

Did the recent rains mess with the rivers much? I was thinking about trying to snatch some mullet next weekend if rivers wern"t flooded out. Thanks.

I think you said you have access to a pier there. If you fish fresh shrimp or fresh cutbait off the far end of the pier, you might catch some good fish. A 1-2 oz. weight should be enough, depending on how swift the tide is running. Like most fishing, best with good water movement. I like to go out ...

Sometimes they just don't wanna eat, nobody knows why My Dad used to say, if you can see fish, you probably won't catch them. Sounds like he was right that day.
