Ecofina 3/17/17 report.

[Hit-n-Miss]

Lavon and I got to Ecofina around 10:30 and headed out at an almost dead low tide. . Talked to a charter cap at the ramp and he said they were in the creeks. But since the water was so low we decided to fish in the river for a whole. Caught lots of these and one keeper. . After the water came up some we went exploring the creek he told us about. . . We found lots of fish. (Saw reds, trout and sheepshead.) but they would not bite. We went to another creek and no luck. Water was up to 60 by now. But no luck so we went on the flats a little. The water was 55 there. So we decided to go back in the river where we started and caught 100 of these. . And two more keepers. A lot of the fish were 13-14.5". Still had fun and wasn't at work. . Good luck to all in the tourney tomorrow.. Prob gonna be tough fishing.

I fished in close behind rock island today because that's where I thought they would be. Caught a good handful of shorts and a few keepers for the most part 100 yards from the grassline. Talked to some guys I know that fished today too and they killed them out from spring creek in 4' of water. Man you just never know. Staying at rockys campgroup tonight and going to get after the reds first thing in the morning in the old faithful grounds at aucilla. You find the right grass and the trout are biting, surprising with this cold snap. Hopefully I'll get I bit more meat in the box tomorrow.

It sounds like you guys had fun! I can't believe the water temp has dropped that much, wow! Hopefully this coming week will put things back where they are supposed to be. We are going on a boat ride today instead of fishing, should be a pretty day.

We made the plans weeks ago. If not for the cold snap the flats should have been on fire.
