There are two of them out there. The first one is the one that has been halfway down for a while and finally went under. It is southeast of the mouth.
N 29 59.952
W 83 54.572
This one has been under for several years, but is still dangerous. It is just above water at mean tide, and you will not see it. It is southwest of the mouth
N 29 59.965
W 83.57.952
Because of Mrs. Dubble's surgeries. I have not been out there since March, but I assume they are still there. I know FWC was made aware of their locations, but nothing was done that I know of.
JT51. Everyone knows Cobia do not hang out at them old racks....

Sharkman, my main fishing bud, said that the one southeast of the mouth that used to be quite visible was not only under last time he tried finding it (month or so ago), but that he couldn't even find it on his radar. And as for the one to the southwest, haven't eyeballed it in quite a while but will say it sure gave me a shock the first time I boated within about 20 yards of it wide open throttle.

Someone should tie a bouy to them. I fish at keaton and pulled alot of lumber from the water after storms.
