Water clarity, scallops

[BayGator]

Nice job of saying what had already been said, MD. BTW, you're the King of Tripe on the forum. Get yer butt outta that chair and go fishing.

Water out in front of Keaton was Gin clear in 3-6 feet last Friday.. it's a short drive and killer fishing.

Thankfully, I come from a LOOONG line of smart arses...I have a feeling that might help me fit in around here. Thanks to all for the great info.

P.S. I still don't enjoy scallop season and never will. There's just something about congested ramps, no trailer parking, crowded flats, inexperienced, rude boaters and mats of floating grass that I find slightly annoying. Besides, those dang things don't jump at all when they're hooked.

No truer words were ever spoken, SK.

I've said it before and will say it again. You want scallops, PUBLIX SEAFOOD market has them year 'round. No cleaning necessary.

Scallops, aka stingray...

You probably can't tell the difference.

There's a difference

You are probably correct. There is a guy here in Panama City that I have fished with a few times that loves to eat stingrays. He takes a pair of gardening sheers/loppers with him and cuts the tail and spines off before he puts them in the cooler. When he gets home he skins/cleans the meat and cooks it just as you would a scallop. I have never tried stingray (that I know of), but he says it is great.

I object your honor, WAM is the king of tripe. I am but a poor humble southern humorist. If you look closely, I added several well placed points of punctuation to my tripe ... errrr.... post.

I say lets all wait and see what the water looks like in mid-June I'm making the trip scallops or no scallops,,,there's always fishing-fellowship with friends and maybe even a cold one to take the edge off..We dont make the weather we just make the trip,and make the most of it,, I have had great luck out of the Econfina the past few years I think it will be good again..
