Cool post and great pics both under and above water. As a poor ole Ga boy 200+ miles from where I love to fish( just not often enough) I really appreciate these posts. Can sorta live vicariously!

Here on beautiful St. George Island for a family beach week with some bay fishing thrown in. Speaking of beach, yesterday for some reason there was a TON of sea grass that had blown up into the first 20 yds of the surf and pockets further out. My son was trying anyhow and when hauling in his line ...

Seems like winds have moved to later in the year, used to be March when you’d catch those but our April trip to the Hatch last year was absolutely the same weather wise. Think I’ll change my planning strategy to trying to make reservations only couple days out in the future. I’m mostly retired and ...

Well I said I’d send post on my trip so here goes. BLOWN OUT! That’s it.

My wife and I got here Monday afternoon and got the boat in and tackle ready for Tuesday morning which dawned with the wind STRONG only to get worse. Steady around 15 gusts 20-25 and that was by far the best day. We did make ...

Thx for the post, looks like y’all had a beautiful day. Sorry the big ones didn’t cooperate. My wife and I are headed to Steinhatchee Monday for several days and super excited to just cruise those beautiful flats. Don’t get me wrong, sure hoping to catch some fish as we love trout filets. If anyone ...

Yeah, don’t have to fill the cooler to post about a fishing trip. Most of us just like to hear about adventures however they turn out. I thought it was sorta about exchanging information good, bad, or ugly. Tomorrow is supposed to be beautiful so you know there are some lucky folks going so maybe ...

I agree! I had not seen any posts in such a long time I even reached out to the site moderator to see if it was still viable ( course never heard from them either). Realize it may not be the best time of the year with weather but you know there are some hardy souls that are venturing out and when ...

Well, my son, grandson ,and I did make it to St. Marks yesterday. Got boat in water about 9:30 and tried slow trolling some swim baits as we headed towards mouth of river, no luck. Not many boats in river maybe 10 or so. We next tried the insides of several bars at river mouth same results so headed ...

200 views and no replies, know it’s not necessarily peak season but surely someone has wet a hook. I ended up not being able to make it but my son and a friend went. Wind was apparently gusting 20+ easy so trolling and anchoring tuff. They showed fish stacked up in deep holes but those wouldn’t bite ...

Son and I hoping to maybe try the river at St. Mark’s tomorrow if the rain passes as supposed to. Has anybody been giving it a shot? Have any fish made it into the river? Just not that familiar with St Marks as living in Georgia just not down there often. We did go last year later in season and tore ...

Awesome, we will try some dawn topwater especially if they still issue a yearly pass to state park which used to give you access to the gate code so you can get your boat in the water before sunrise. I’d rather catch one on topwater than 10 any other way. And if you are staying on the east end of ...

We are headed to St. George Island Saturday for a week of sun n fun, grouper sandwiches at Blue Parrot, and steamed shrimp at the Indian Pass. When not feeding my face or enjoying a cold one or two plan on doing some fishing probably most in the bay behind the state park and maybe try to run some ...

We headed to St. George next Saturday for week for family vacation but taking bay boat for some trout n redfishing in the bay. I’d love to try n hook up w a triple tail but no experience w that. Know to check crab trap buoy etc but understand that parts of bay behind the island has spots that get ...

Awesome, great day! We headed for St. George Island 6/3 for a week and will definitely try the buoys as I’ve never caught a triple tail. We ate some filets ( hate to admit I bought) last summer and they were delicious.

Wow! Thx for going to the trouble of looking that guide up and great timing as gonna try to make my Dry Tortuga ferry reservations today and start working backwards from there for rest of trip so I’ll give him a holler and since we talking bout 5 months out may be able to hook up ( literally I hope ...
