Econfina Fishing
A couple more and I'll have a collection...
Re: Econfina Fishing
Yup, I've seen that before. I know a guy that has at least one more like that I'm sure he would be willing to deal on.

Both of those got a couple more seasons on them!
It may be that my sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

JR says that meteors fall there every night. There are new rocks there each day.
Re: Econfina Fishing
JR's explanation sounds as good as any I've heard! lol
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!
Re: Econfina Fishing
If anyone knows, JR should be the one! X3

I've got plenty of props that look just like that. That's why I like aluminum ones. I'm saving them for a recycling payday.

Re: Econfina Fishing
IF you go to the Aucilla at night, you can use a spotlight and watch the rocks migrate and breed. baby rocks soon pop up during rock spawning season. they migrate into the river in the winter to spawn.

Re: Econfina Fishing
When the water is stained & dark, I go with at least 1.5'+ tides, stick to a few "RELATIVELY" safe routes and go with the, "Rocks? What rocks?" mindset.
Then when the waters clear the pucker factor goes way up as I hold my breath and motor over the 17 billion rocks while frantically trying to mark them all.
Then by the time the waters get stained again and I find the time to get back out on the water, I wonder what in the heck all the unnamed waypoints represent... fish or rocks?!

Re: Econfina Fishing
I understand the pucker factor. When the water is clear I have to take my polarized glasses off when I am running out of the river. Even though I look at the tides and know I'll be safe, it is still too scary to me to see all the rocks under me as I go out. The creeks are something else. I know where at least two of the rocks in the creeks are by now as you can see above.
The good news is that I will always know where some of the shallow rocks that warm the water around them in the cooler months are.

Re: Econfina Fishing
I like the rocks. Just think how many people it keeps out your fishing spots. I have fishing buddy's that will not go down there.
Re: Econfina Fishing
I think most of them are encrusted crab traps. I have been out there in a negative low with the yak, and there are probably 10 traps to every big rock.
