Had a dove shoot planned with my buddy Brian until I rechecked the regulations and realized its out till the 14th

So to save the day I loaded the boat and we headed to Panacea.
Trout are tearing it up... Fished the long bar off Piney - caught fish on the breaks.
Got most on a tourist rig- although Brian lost a nice one on a strait jig.
Some photo highlights:
Fantastic winter sunset on the way in: The box shot: At the cleaning table at the Panacea Marina- You can see the flounder and a very happy Brian!



Finished it up with Dinner at Hookwrecks... Does not get any better!

Great save

Nice trout bman.

I wish winter were here, but it seems far, far away.

I just hope my first-mate and trailer backing skills were sufficient to get invited back...did you like how I let that hoss 24 incher get off right at the boat so I was sure you beat me on the day?

2 rules...

Never beat the boss at golf and never catch more fish than your host.

Now that is a fun day!

HEY BMAN, THAT IS A VERY NICE MESS OF TROUT, GLAD YA GOT'EM. HOW DEEP WERE THEY BITIN.
PA THE OLD MAN

Sweet!

Nice job Barry

PA- they were on the edge of a bar in about 3 feet but the bar we were catching them on is near drop offs between 5-10 feet
Also caught them on a falling tide. Put in about 4 and had our limit plus at 6

Walt, You can call it wishful thinking but I'm calling it Winter!

Bagataway- You did just fine! plenty of room to harass you about your trailer skills but you put it in the water.

I was dreaming about fish last night- may need to go again today

Good Job Guys

Heck of a lot better than our day out at St Marks!


Great job!

Nice !!!

Great day bud!

Nice work Barry. I launched about the same time yesterday out of Aucilla; had to do some yard work and replace a battery in the boat first. Much the same result during the same tide. Seems like the trout bite is on fire.

Very Nice
