In Florida, the time line was established along the Apalachicola River beginning at the Georgia border. But things change near the coast.
As the time-zone line approaches the seaport town of Apalachicola, the line veers west and wraps around the town of Port St. Joe. Even though Port St. Joe is west of some Central time communities, it goes by Eastern Time. Years ago, when Port St. Joe was a major shipping and railroad center, industry found it more convenient to go by Eastern time.
Seems to be some confusion over time. What time are we using Mr. Tournament Director? St. Joe seems to be in Eastern but a little birdie told me you guys went by central time last year.

We will be using Eastern Time. Tournament begins promptly at 6:30 a.m. and back at the ramp at 3 p.m. for weighin,pictures and whatever.
Specifics will be discussed Thursday night,however,since I will be leaving at 5 a.m. Friday I don't know if they will be posted until I get back.

Atleast next tournament I'll get to fish with someone who doesn't have REDFISH on the brain. Remember this is a TROUT tournament. Of course that's what I told you for 8 hours last month.

I don't know, there is some nice redfishing in SJB. I may not be able to control myself.

At 1 fish a day you'll almost have a limit to weigh by Monday. Too bad the scales will be closed by then.

A tether would be better. He's known to run out of gas in that bay and can't get back.
