Yes it was, went to St. Joe Bay Saturday and had a great time fishing with my Brother in law. He caught 3 Spanish, we had several Spanish break us off. We could not find the trout but it was just nice to be in the boat again...

Hmmm... but did you get love from any other species? Inquiring minds want to know! In particular wondering about one that should be showing up any day now...

Steve Stinson and I put in at Hickory Mound and started fishing outside the creek mouth.
The bite was not on fire,but OK.
We caught several top quality trout, a good red and some flounder.
All fish came on soft jerk baits except those that did not.

We fished out of Keaton Friday and caught three limits of nice trout (17' to 19" ) in 4' to 6' of water. Mostly caught on four inch white gulp shrimp with chart. tail. Also one good Spanish and a big blue. Water was dark and couldn't see the bottom. No Sea Bass, pins, cat's or sharks.
Nina and I fished Wakulla Beach for a brief period mid afternoon. We caught 4 upper slot trout and then the wind started blowing. Doesn't take much in a Jon boat to be affected by weather conditions so we went in after about an hour and a half of fishing. Don't have a temp gauge on the jon boat, but I can tell you that the water was pretty stained over there. Afraid it will just get worse as the rivers are still dumping.
