| Mary and I got to the surf this morning about 7:30. Surf was rough and brown. In many cases a foamy brown. No bait. No fish. Did not lose a dead shrimp nor a piece of cut bait in an hour and a half . Best part of the day was taking two mile walk with Mary and then coming back and tailgating eating fresh pomegranates. |

| Same thing on PINS except you couldn't keep bait in the water or throw lures with all the dead weed. Been a tough fall so far! Jeff Wolda |

Well, if you and Mary couldn't get a bite, then I know the fish weren't there.
I've been hesitant to try the beach since when I go to check it out I seem to always get a slight whiff of red tide....but then I seem to have become super-sensitive to it this year. |

Always a way to make lemonade out of lemons. A lil walk can do wonders for the sole. _________________ "I do hunt and I do fish and I do not apologize to anyone that I hunt and fish." - Norman Schwarzkopf |

| I went out to the surf this evening and the water was much browner than on friday. I couldn't see the baitfish due to the visibility being about 3 inches but there were mullet in the wade gut. It had to wait till they flipped around to see them. Only caught a hardhead and a ladyfish. |
