SS, st Joe is SUPER salty.
Only has one set of tide.
Read somewhere that earth colored softbaits are best...like rootbeer.
Very shallow in the back part-don't get caught when the tide goes out or you'll spend the night.
Lots of pot holes to hold fish.
Never been myself. The guys that did the tourney two weeks ago will help.

Fish around Black Island and Pig Island, holes, channels and changes in the bottom are keys to success, but not guaranteed.
Take a pill for patience, them amateurs will be out in droves

What Chalk said. Look for irregular or broken bottom. Fish every sandy spot you can find. The most important piece of equipment you have is polarized glasses.
Good luck.
