Mid-Week Trip

Post by **Ron Wilson** » September 27th, 2005, 7:37 pm

Any thoughts on weather and sea state for Wed-Thurs fishing trip in the flats off St. Mark's? NOAA calling for 5-10 mph southeast winds with 2-4 ft. sea state. Not sure what the means for the St. Mark's flats, but we'll see.

You won't know if you don't go.

I'm planning to a make a two day trip of it on Fri and Sat....Weather reports I've seen look good for Fri other than a slight chance of rain...Course all this can change overnight...

5 - 10 should be perfect. Maybe it will be overcast also...

Going with my 18-year old son and two of his buddies. Life's too short to pass up this opportunity with kids this age.

MJ,
Good point on the live shrimp. Rarely go out without a dz or three.

Unlees it's a hurricane - or radar shows showers - i've slowly learned not to trust the NOAA marine forecasts.

Otherwise I'd probably only go on half of the trips I take down at the LH.
