Struck Out @ Lighthouse, 10/24
Posted: October 25th, 2004, 8:11 am
I would like to thank all of those that responded to my request for info concerning the area fishing.
I decided to go down to St. Marks Lighthouse and try a little wading. I had a great trip, however it did not include the catching of any trout or redfish. My sons, 6 & 11 had a blast catching penfish on an ultralight on every cast. This allowed me and my brother to concentrate on fishing for something a litttle more substantial.
We tried several different things, however nothing seemed to work. Only a couple of bumps, and they were not that strong.
As I had ben told, this is a beautiful area and will warrant many returns. I will be in my pontoon next time and be able to cover alot more ground. At least I know where the kids can catch bait!! Learn something every trip.
Till next time, hope to see some of you there.
Thanks again for the help.
