Had plans on fishing sat out of Lanark,was gonna run to DIR w/ a friend in a 21 SEA PRO but now seeing 2-3 ft sea w/ 5-10 knot winds,gusts up to 20mph. SO,,,,is it Keaton and stay close in?Lanark and close in? Help me out fellas cause i'm going e to Keaton even if he backs out,in the 16 ft Wahoo w/ a dang 40 hoss...Gotta go when I can being a firefighter and it's my only day off..Whatcha think??

Probably about 6-8 weeks too early for Dog Island Reef. The reports from KB have been much better.

Thanks Cap'n Dave,so you think w/ traditional tactics and drifting 3-5 ft of water we may catch 'em? I havent fished alot this time of year,nor Keaton,maybe 2-3 trips and did fairly well.

I'm good w/ Keaton(my first choice,til spring and then it just might be Lanark))but he went to DIR about 5-6 weeks ago and caught 4-5 bulls reds and boy did he get the "bull fever"...his truck will now only drive to Lanark,haha.Can't tell him a thing now!

Big difference between 6 weeks ago and now in terms of water temps. The Alligator Harbor sensor is showing 58 degrees currently.

I'd go shallow at Keaton or else try the Steinhatchee River. Lots of big trout ganged up there now from what I've heard.

Thank again SK,I'm gonna talk to the hard-headed redfish guru in the morn at work..I,myself will be to the east w/ or w/o my Lieutenant.
