Re: Boat ramp Break ins???

I saw something about broken windows at Mandalay Bay, but I think it was on Facebook. Haven't been able to find to post again.

Re: What am I doing wrong

I scouted around the East River Saturday. Caught 2 cats and a sting ray so I wasn't skunked! :). Water temp was 68 in the river and 72 in East River.

Gonna make reservations at Stony Bayou next Saturday!

Re: What am I doing wrong

Me, all my friends, my family members, and about 642 other fishermen who have access to this forum internet thing will be there this weekend. I'll bet the fishing will be great. Between 1 and 5? :D Sorry I mentioned a specific spot. Next time I will leave out any specific location. I'm not sure if ...

What am I doing wrong

I'm in a dry spell! Went to the St Marks river Saturday 2/19 around 1pm starting at the Fort and working up river. I got all the way to the 98 Bridge and still hadn't caught anything. I did get to meet Redbeard in person at the boat ramp, so that was good. Prior to that on Friday afternoon my step d...

I have never been turkey hunting, but I've been told that once you get into it it becomes a passion. Good luck and happy hunting!

Did you put in at Mandalay or some other ramp?

Re: Aucilla fishing trip 1/7-8

Sounds like a great trip! I agree with being brave in the Aucilla! The only time I've seen a broken foot was from low tide rocks in the Aucilla.

Re: Lighthouse ramp

Looks like Cedar Key at low tide! The curb at the end of the ramp is almost out of the water.

Re: St Marks 12/31

The worst thing to me in those conditions is that the mist keeps my glasses fogged up to where it is a pain in the ass and I’m nearly blind without them. I guess just a part of paying your dues! That was happening to me last Saturday with my sunglasses. If I pulled them further down away from my ey...

Re: St Marks 10/23

Yesterday the water was 69.5 degrees and I'm sure you had issues with the wind in a kayak! We only caught one catfish.

Re: Christmas Time is here…

Great report! Nothing beats some fresh fried mullet, red roe, eggs and grits for breakfast!
