So when it's that bouncy out there, do you anchor up or drift? Too bouncy for the trolling motor, or do you have one of those HelmMaster setups to use your outboards to stay on a spot?

Tried to hit the snapper one last time yesterday. Launched before 6 at Carrabelle to beat the crowd (barely) and headed out with a forecast of 1-2 ft seas. Stopped inside Dog Island to catch some pinfish and thought "hmm, kinda breezy. . ." We headed out down-sea to about 80 ft. Stopped to...

Speaking of sharing scalloping grounds, I saw what I think was an 8-10 ft hammerhead slowly cruising the shallow flats near the party bar the other day.

Snuck out today and pushed through 2-3 foot waves far enough to know we weren't going to make it to snapper depth. We stopped on a public reef (I'm legally prohibited from saying which one) and picked up a few grunts, but were hoping for something bigger. We put out the chum bag and some live pinfis...

Thanks. Soft swimbait on a weedless worm hook seemed to work best getting thru the weeds, but I didn't get a bite on it

Tried to fish the flats East of the lighthouse this morning, but a stiff breeze and tons of floating grass made it tough. Only caught a few shorts. What are y'all's strategies for fishing when clumps & lines of floating grass are everywhere?
