Damn. I'm so up for it. but I'm going camping on cape san blas that weekend. maybe next month...

There's a spot I used to fish close to Lanark, I would wade out there, but I'm waiting for a yak before I go again. The spot itself is pretty sweet. But it takes about 20 minutes of wading to get to it. By looking on the charts it might be over a mile out. Anyway, after 319 & 98 get back together ...

I suppose the 1 major downside to fishing in a tandem with 2 people is that I wouldn't feel comfortable casting a fly with my wife sitting in front of me. I'd probably hook her in the eye. I suppose I could take the fly rod out when I'm alone.

Thanks. I'll probably rent one from wilderness way soon before I make the purchase, but you're right lit - I won't be needing too much stuff. You basically covered it there.

Well, whenever I get one, y'all will know.

So I've had my eyes on a kayak for over a year now and I've finally made the decision to get one. My goal is to have it by June 1 - but really as soon as possible. After everything I've read , I'm pretty much set on getting a hobie kayak with the mirage drive. My main question is the fishability of ...

Actually all the reds you catch inshore are Female. Only when you get offshore (or over 36 " inshore) into "bull reds" do you have males. Same with grouper. All small ones are female and then at a certain age migrate offshore and turn male.

This is the reason the reds were nearly wiped out because ...

So last sunday we decided to take the drive to Eastpoint and try our luck again on the old bridge. This time my brother was here from p-cola, so him, his gf and my wife went. It was breezy, more so than the 24th. We got set up about an hour before high tide and weren't catching much of anything ...

WTG! Nice report! And good catchin'! But don't those extra spots on that red count for a quarter inch? :wink:

He was purty, but I measured him at least 4 times and each time he was just under 18. Already had 2 in the cooler, so we let him go to get real big.

The weekends just can't come fast ...

Saturday the wife and I decided to make the drive to the old bridge to St. George. It had been a while since we made the trek, since May I believe. Lately we've been going to P-cola to visit with my brother or opt for the shorter drive to wakulla beach to do some fishing.

I was glad I didn't have a ...

so I haven't really been posting here often since I haven't been doing much fishing in the area as of late. My brother just moved to pensacola, right on perdido bay, so I've been headed there every weekend to fish with him.

I just learned that there is a paper plant that discharges its waste into ...

I am confused now and will just close with the real question of 'how'd you get that slime off your hands and gear?' I only touched one in my life and never will again, lesson learned. There was sailcat smegma 2 ft up my line too. :smt028

I put a lobster glove on to hold down the cat, so thats ...

I just had to go fishing saturday, no matter what. I was "on-call" until 2 saturday afternoon, so I couldn't head down to the gulf until then. So I drove for 2 hours, stood in the wind and rain, well, mostly wind. It must have been blowing steady at 25 with some gusts that felt like I might get ...

You're right about that. I used a berkley GULP crab last time I went out. Right away I was getting little bumps. When I pulled it up I only had the body left.

After reading the last issue of Shallow water angler and seeing those sweet kayaks, I'm saving up for one. I've had my eye on the tarpon 140...but I'm still looking.

I reviewed a lot of litterature prior to conducting my research. My analysis was conducted on data I gathered from NMFS. After reviewing litterature I decided to focus the study on 5 fish. GreaterAJ, Reddrum, red snapper, red grouper, and vermillion snapper.

Just so you know, I wasn't a marine bio ...
