When you say the real Posey's which one are you referring to? I haven't been around Keaton or Steinhatchee much, but I want to check it out this summer.

Re: 3/25/23 Fishing Report

I have seen 2 large cats out there recently! I thought about taking one home to see for myself how good the are. I had to go all the way to the Pinhook River to catch a nice Red on Friday.

Re: New to Area looking for Boat Ramp Advice

For a 27' boat St Marks Fort would be plenty of room (as doomtrpr said), but the St Marks Lighthouse ramp would be a little tight. I haven't launched at Shields in a while, but I think it was $5 per launch last time I was there and it should be fine for you. If you are talking about the Lanark Boat ...

That brings up a question for the Red Bearded one, why isn't Lake and Bay on your short list? My sister's boyfriend has one it seems like a well built boat.

Re: Can we talk Boats?

Went and looked at a 25’ Sea Hunt yesterday; was pretty surprised how much is “standard” and the value your getting compared to other similar brands. So you're saying the Sea Hunt is a better value that other comparable brands? I have two friends with Sea Hunt boats. One is a 17' 1999 CC with a 115...

Re: Atamasco/Zephy/Rain lilies are blooming

I was just thinking about that on Saturday. The ditches have lots of lilies on 267 from Wakulla St to the Lighthouse Rd.

Re: Spring pattern

We were out near the sand bar checking crab traps Friday and Saturday afternoon and the fog was thick. Water temp was 72 and air temp must have been 71. So glad to have 2 separate GPS devices to find my way home!

Re: Fishing Story…but this one has heart

Great story! We went fishing with my girlfriends Dad on Saturday who is 78 and ran his long tail mud motor for about 3 hours in super skinny water to get us a limit of reds. Some new memories are even better than the old ones!

I would post pics, but I forgot how!

Re: Info on Cedar Key/Manatee Springs

Manatee Springs is a great spot to kayak and watch Manatees, but no ramp close by to launch a boat. There is a big parking lot near the spring where I've parked my boat in the past. It's about 35 miles to Cedar Key and that is the best spot for fishing in the area. Late May is pretty good for fishin...
