I assume that you would've went North if you could have.
Not a bad day one the water if you were sight seeing. Glad you got out there. :thumbup:

Those crabs could have been easily caught. They were frozen. :(

There was nothing moving out there. What reds we saw were gone as soon as we saw them. Never saw a trout. The birds weren't moving. We never saw a mullet. It was dead out there.

Enjoyed the ride, BH. I'll tag along any time. :thumbup:
What was I supposed to do today?

I was down that way on the 1st, did good on reds in the canal, then hooked a good fish on the cape side late in the after noon on my fly rod while learning how to cast. He schooled me and got off. Saw 6 of them, all of them were upper slot fish. (first post)
Get your mind right
