Got on the water around 4 yesterday "right at the end of the rise" fished around Piney Island, first 5 cast produced 5 short Trout

drifted over towards an Oyster bar and picked up a 22 inch Red

did the drift again and hung and lost a BIG Red "probably to big ta keep"

tide went slack and the bite quit, ran back to the flats between Piney and Bottoms and caught two more short Trout, then headed back home at 6:30

Water temp was 81 at the creek mouth and 84 on the flats, still pretty stained but a bit clearer than Saturday morning

Good report. Now tell the truth. Trout really means catfish, and Red really means shark. Its ok.

Ya'll best just stay over around Saint Marks

Did I mention the BIG pot-holes in the pavement

or the fact that you have to back half your truck into the water to get the boat to float

definitely not the ramp for you TC

Hey wevans.... isn't that the same area that they refer to as the "bottoms triangle"?? Where those mysterious sinking's and unexplained fisherman disappearances have happened?

I'll be around soon.
The shrimp up the river are gettin' ancy.
