I decided to leave the grouper alone due to us doing pretty well on them latley in addition to the small craft advisory this past sunday. Im not gonna lie we did go to the mouth of the river to look at her but she was kickin up something nasty. 2ft white capping chop was what we ran into in the mouth of the st marks so we turned her around and decided to go harass some redfish. We fished several areas and finally found them along the deep holes on the side of the river between the fort and the broken down pilings on the left side of the st marks river if you are heading to the gulf. We caught all of our fish on live shrimp on the bottom using a jig head. We ended up catchin 40 short reds along with out limit of nice keepers between 22 and 24 inches. My wife caught the two biggest at 24" . My dad even caught a nice 14" flounder. I also lost a slob at the side of the boat that would have gone 26". Tight lines

Final Tally:
4 keeper reds to 24"
40 short reds
1 Flounder at 14"

could you plaese tell me what were the tide doing when you were fishing on this trip . Do you think it played a big roll, Thank you for any info

Nice report!

Nice fish as well.

Thanks

Great work

Great work

Dave- we fished the outgoing in the morning with minimum success but when the tide turned and started pouring in the afternoon the bite reallt heated up. If you can find some good movement near deep holes along the river, you can usually find some fish. Good luck

thanks for the info, i will be trying this week end. So when you said you were fishing on the bottom, you ment on the bottom right, not off the bottom? Just using a jig head with a live shrimp? Thanks again
