Fished Shell Point all weekend, Stayed away from the crowds to the East. Did better in the afternoons when the tides started back out. Caught plenty of trout in the 16" to 17" size and some 18" to 19" and only one over 20" which was 21". Most of the fish had about half ...

Well, I will be fishing the Shell Point area this weekend. There is some good fish there right now, and I have some more areas I want to check on. I may run to the East on Tuesday. See yall out there.

Atticus; I got your e-mail but my reply wont send. My Action Craft is a 1820 Coastline, year 2000. I really do like it a lot, The ride is good. In a 2 foot chop I can run near 45 mph. In a 3 foot chop I can run around 20 to 25 mph. Faster depending on the direction of the chop. JT51 rode with me one...

Yes, it was a tight tournament. We had 12-13 lbs. which tied for third, our big fish was heavier (24" 3-13 lbs.) so we claimed third. we put in at Spring Creek and fished around Shell Point early and late, caught most of our fish around Cobb and Redfish Point. One of the five fish we weighed ca...

JT51,

Have you had any time to work this week.
I will be leaving Pensacola this afternoon, I plan to fish Fri. Sat. and of course Sunday. It is to blow hard out of the South this weekend. should make for plenty of water.

-Sevres as a dry place to sit when boat is on the bottom of the Falts.

JT51 Dude, Yes, there are many fish out there right now. You know my plan, Put in at Spring Creek, fish the creek during the low morning tide, about 9:00 am make the run to Cobb Rocks area while the Tide completes shifting take my time manovering through the rocks, then when we get where the fish ar...

Thats what I have always said, If your not catching anything don't reach for your Tackle Box, Reach for the Key and put the motor in gear. Heck your already casting your favorite bait, how could you improve on it. A boat has a motor for the same reason a fish has a tail.

I love Spring Fishing, See ya Out there.

I can get very superstitious, I always have a fishing hat when I fish. I have had hats that seemed to always catch fish and others that just don't seem to work as well. Of course the fish don't know what I am waring, But I do. So I guess it's what will raise your confidence level.

JT51,

You sound ready for next weekend, I'm ready can't wait. It should be a great weekend for fishing. the water temp should rise another 3 to 5 degrees with the sunshine. I'm sure our paths will cross Fri. Sat. or Sun. Good Luck,

Jumptrout 51,

Heard you had a Special Guest at the last tournament. Was he able to offer some of those great deals? What did you buy?

Flukes are all I use, "Year round", for saltwater. If your going through 4 or 5 packs a trip you need to change the brand your buying. Xtrude makes a harder plastic and there are a lot of other hard rubber baits. The first thing I do when shopping for flukes is squeeze the bait and feel ho...

Yes Sir Steve, Thems are Convicts.

I don't throw many topwater baits. But, when I do I like the SPRO 35 Shad.........I hate treble hooks
