HMMMMM ???

Even though Tuesday was the New Moon, and the tides sure were kinda crappy. On Wednesday, Nick W. and I hit the St Marys river south rocks. Yep, another road trip. 

YEP, I'll certainly be doing more and more trips to the north. Charters and all..."who wants to?"



Yep, not a super banner day. But okay given all the circumstances, aka: Tides, winds, approaching front??

We lost some monster drag burners. Pitched jigs and plastic, Jigs and Shrimp, Float-rigged, only thing we didn't do is bottom fish.

Well with an "iffy" weekend....I'll maybe see you at Gander Mountain (Duval rd.Town Center) at noon. I'll be doing a seminar, for all who want to listen and watch.
