I did find this on another site, posted yesterday

Never got cold enough long enough at the right times . We checked on them a week or so ago and scored one . Maybe they will show up in March on the moon .

Panama City to Steinhatchee and everywhere inbetween. Some maybe beyond both directions but not many. Lots of Keaton and St Marks.

BigBendFishing.Net
A unique website dedicated to fishing information from Florida's Northern Big Bend.
This includes the area from the Econfina River west to the Apalachicola River

Should say what Don said....but who's complaining

Between March and the April full moon is the time according to Capt Mcgriff.....

Having dove on several areas of live bottom, ledges, and wrecks over the past 2 months I can tell you that the most abundant fish on the reef besides grunts are sheephead. Anything that has relief should be holding fish.

Oops, guess I should have checked the boundaries huh?

Crystal River, Yankeetown, Cedar Key ect. are all in the Big Bend on the Florida Sportsman site so I just assumed....
