Sounds like a great day- we fished the St Marks- along with 100 other boats. All we got were silver trout & one short Speck. A Question- Do the bass you catch in the Wakulla taste different from bass in a strictly freshwater river. I wonder if the pinfish and crab give them a different flavor. I...

Anyone have an old transom mount Trolling motor you want to unload?
Doesn't need to look nice- just work.
Something like a minnkota 30lb thrust- I need it for a small jon boat.

Penn Reel Maintenance

Hi guys-
I was looking for a guide for stripping down an old Penn and found this on the web. Thought some of you may want to see it.

Level Wind or not?

I'm a newbie bottom fishing- much more of a flats/freshwater guy. But a buddy is taking me soon! So here is a question- Do you get reels with or without level wind guides? All my flats/bass bait casters are level winds- So i have some comfort there. So why do many bottom fishing reels not have a lev...

love seeing those coots- They really taste great.
Mlder than a Duck. I love them in a gumbo- or grill the breast after you marinate it in Itallian Dressing.

My thoughts- Shoot a Coot- make space for a Duck to nest.......

We were out there on saturday- Picked up trout around the bars between the fort and lighthouse. Tried Sheephead fishing up the river but didnt loose any bait.

If you dont mind sharing - do you fish on the up current side of the wreck back to it or on the down side?

Thanks

Have any of you tried a Hydro SHield?
http://www.hydro-shield.com/

I like the design from Porter- I see how it protects the leading edge of the moter better.
But, the Hydro SHield seems like it would protect the prop better.

anyone have experience with the Hydro Shield?

That sounds great- It just a little bigger boat than I need!
But I'm excited about going and really excited to try out the GPS.
That will give me a little better idea of what I really want.

Oh yea- and the DIGITS :-D :-D

I got checked at StMarks yesterday and the guys were nice. They were still out looking for the man that was thrown from his boat a few days ago. They think he was swamped by a bigger boat as he left a creek by the channel One tip- when they are pulling up throw out all the lifevests - on the deck- n...
