Brevoortia Tyrannus! Now why would Booth shout "Pogies!," after he killed President Lincoln. That is what he shouted wasn't it? :wink:

If you're talking about ly's? This time of year you can find them around buoy#2, I think it's #2. It marks the west end of DI Reef. I've netted them out of the Carrabelle River, around to the east near the big range marker, the Carrabelle River channel markers and in Alligator harbor.
