Carrabelle, Two trip report
Posted: January 16th, 2007, 11:13 am
Had the pleasure of fishing on the Second Chance (nice rig) with Vance P, aka Second Chance, Saturday. We didn't hit a bonanza off the east end of Dog, but was a good day fishing, anyway. Picked up 2 keeper gags and 4 black bass. Mostly trolled and drifted over good bottom at 30-35'.
Conditions were as published at mostly 2-3', but smoothed in the PM.
S/C with a nice un.

Went again yesterday, with a friend here in Carrabelle. 'Decided to go a little further out- South and 7-8 miles west of the O tower, just to see, if anything was biting in the deeper water. We pretty much did the same as Sat.- trolled (no luck) and drifted over live bottom at 70-75'. Bait was cut LY's.
Forcast called for 2-3 and that's what was out there, but the 'mostly sunny' part was a bust with overcast sky til late afternoon. Once again, the water settled in the PM.
The catch amounted to 3 keeper gags and a sizeable mangrove snapper. We had one other gag, that bearly made 22" (too close to call for me), so 'decided to put it back. Likely a good decision, since we were checked in the river on return.
Here's a pic of the first two in the box.
