I don't remember the details because it's been years ago, plus I've basically tried to forget this period in my life which was a nightmare (lol!) but there is something like a peddler's license when it comes to selling watermelons on the side of the road like I used to do. Obviously fish are a whole...

I don't even bother in March...I'd rather inhale baitfish carcus odor mixed with rotten seaweed all day than fish in the wind. I usually go once in February just to scratch the itch then go all out as soon as the wind quits in April.

Does this hilarious incident exist anywhere with full audio and video that doesn't cut away as soon as he falls? I've seen it on countless YouTube compilations, his show obviously, and my own Bill Dance bloopers DVD (the very first 1 and sencond release after the 80s VHS I think). It either has no a...

Most important question...did you catch any fish and did you see any mullet :-D :-D :-D Somebody showed me a picture of either the biggest or the 2nd biggest Cottonmouth (I saw 1 on the Aucilla myself in the same range...probably not going to hold them together and measure them to be sure) that I've...

I stocked a rarely fished pond off of Natural Bridge Road years ago after going out with a biologist to shock up some fish. Even though this pond was rarely and I mean rarely ever fished, most of the fish shocked up, especially the bass, were on the small side. The biologist told me the type of pon...

There’s actually one mounted behind the buffet in the Mayo Cafe. :lol: Mayo, Fl? I've been in that cafe and that tackle shop/pecan cracking shop :lol: :lol: :lol: We ran the pecan outfit over in Monticello for years and years and did alot of work with them. As for the cafe, I don't remember the Bow...

O good grief can't ya'll just be nice and explain to the person who is obviously new in town that Lake Ella is basically a cement pond with tame bream and ducks in it and be done with it. Save him the embarrassment lol!

Wow I hope they survived

Got down to St Marks Refuge today just before noon. Totally blown out tides, air temp 38 with a strong north wind. Decided to scout an East River spring that I found while wadefishing some years back... It was filled with eating size mullet. As in thousands upon thousands. :-o :-o :-o :-o :-o :-o :...

The God complex of game wardens has ticked me off before, but that's more of a personal problem between those lone human beings and whoever gave them their small worm that isn't used for fishing if you get my drift. Those few rotten apples aside, I think enforcement is lagging. I know about people c...

I've been going up and down this river my whole life but have never been all the way up to the spring that begins the channel they call "Little River." There's an old launch site there called Malloy's landing that you can't drive to anymore. Has anybody here ever been up there? I'm curious...

Lol cypress trout. We call them swamp bass.

Keep trying. There's probably some warriors in there. I've never seen an overfilled pond that wasn't either a catfish pond or a bream pond (and as soon as we put bass in it...bam it all evened out). Otters, birds, etc make it nearly impossible to have that problem. The only reason that bream pond of...

Somebody mentioned patties...the folks I know who eat them make patties similar to salmon patties. They also make cakes similar to crab cakes out of them.

I cleaned some for an old man once and...I'd try um. Never have though.

As for the record, I know where some are on the upper Aucilla River.
