No fish left in the big pond. Shell point/wakulla beach/wal

It was a beautiful day for a boat ride. Never seen the water so clear or so low. 90% was
1-2’. If i wasn’t in my mud bug i would have been stuck out there for sure.

Where did the fish go? I caught the incoming tide in the afternoon and we didn’t even see a splash. No bait fish, mullet, crab, nothing. I didn’t even see anything swimming under the boat. Talked to another guy and he said the same thing.

Did anyone catch a fish yesterday? 1-20-18

Water is too cold for most of the fish on the flats. Try up the rivers and creeks.

You won't find anything out there right now, water temp in the 40's and just too cold. Like they said, go up rivers and fish.

Got out Friday afternoon and fished a few creek mouths to the east of the Econfina, caught several reds in the late afternoon. Then went and caught plenty of trout in the river on Saturday. Left the river due to so many boats. Went out of the River and fished a few more creeks, managed a 3 man limit of redfish plus some overslot fish up to 30". Probably saw 200 reds Saturday. They are there just have to know where to look. If you have an Instagram you can follow along with the fishing @dudewheresmyplug. Put up real time stories everytime we go out.

I usually fish econfina or st marks and usually always limit out. I hate fishing around shell point, never seem to do any good. But we stay on live oak island when we go down and it's easier leaving the dock. I figured we'd at least catch a red. There wasn't anything in the mouth of spring creek either.. St. Marks it is.....
