Thinking about running out Monday morning and seeing if the trout have moved into the St. Marks river as of yet. Anybody been out and tried it yet?

Put in either at the fort or Sheilds. Head down the river. After you get just past the power plant, there will be a bend in the river (you will see the Resume Safe Speed sign. Drop anchor just past that sign and bottom fish with shrimp (frozen is as good as any). Dont be surprised when you catch red...

Ted, It's either all or nothing in the river. Im there at least 3 days a week in the winter (going Monday for the first time this year). The trout will bunch up pretty tight and Ive found the best way to find them is to troll. I usually use a 1/8 oz jig head with a little yellow or white paddle tail...

New Ulterra going on today. That leaves me with a trolling motor that I don't need. Works fine. Foot controlled.45" shaft. $300 or trade for ????

Just ordered my "early Christmas " present. Ordered a Minn Kota Ulterra trolling motor. Thats the one that self deploy, retract and trim up via remote control. Anybody out there have any experience with one of these?

Sure am glad to hear that. Ive bought nothing but shorts all year long. Maybe the cooler weather is bringing the bigger fish in? Who knows. Just glad to hear that bigger fish are being caught. Look forward to hearing somebody report on trout up the St. Marks river!

Haven't tried it yet this year. My experience has been that they come in when the water temperature gets into the mid 60 degree range. Any idea where it's at now?

anybody ever tried the Vudu Egret Magic Mullet? The action on the video is the most realistic Ive ever seen! Just picked up a couple but haven't had a chance to try it yet. Love to know if somebody out there has fished it.

Wonder how the trout fishing will be in the St. Marks river this year. Last year was certainly off!

Hand launch only and no motor zone.

Hey Rocky,

Was good to see you Friday (before the slip and fall)! Wish we would have had some time to catch up. As for the ramp, its like walking on ice BUT Ive got a pair of old rubber crocks that doesn't slip at all. Thats the only foot ware I will wear when launching out of the light house!

Not familiar with the event. Do you have to have a Captain's license or no? If not, Id love to help.

Question for someone with more knowledge than me (thats just about everyone)…… Just replace my live well pump motor. Didn't have to replace the plumbing that goes thru the hull and the 5200 applied there is still good. I have an access panel at the back of the transom right by the two drain holes (M...

You guys talking about the flats east of the light house or the east river area?
