Caught them just drifting east of the lighthouse, well before the rock garden. 5ft - 3ft is the depth I stayed in, clear water, felt cold to me. Shrimp under equalizers, also pink and white grubs. Caught a couple in the river mouth around the bars also, but action was much better in the grass flats.

Wevans, yeah, knowing you haunt the western range of this forum like I do it's getting old reading about the Econfini Aucilla St Marks success. I may be heading east too.
By the way, a Dog Island Shoal report:
Sunday, clear water, lots of it, some grass growing on the bottom.
