Looks like Hurricane Nate will be out in the central Gulf by Saturday. My guess is this might be the weekend - to watch baseball. _________________ Don - permanent prescription of salt water therapy. |

A tropical in the Gulf and easterly winds blowing all the way across the Gulf has pushed water into our coast. Then we have a full moon on top of that. Now the question is will the new tropical storm push more water our way?

Some of you old salts here, in a high water situation, are there places (not boat drivers) where reds, trouts, go to avoid getting all wet when this water comes up. In fresh water , around mathis, I know where those places are , the dam, the spillway, various spots in the river, newly covered grass , etc. but in salt water, where might those places be ? _________________ Don - permanent prescription of salt water therapy. |

Tropical Storm Nate is presently in the Caribbean near the Honduras and Nicaragua. It should make it to the Gulf of Mexico by Saturday morning.

| The PINS camera shows the tides backing off a bit this am (Friday, 6th), but once this storm get into the Gulf, then all bets are off for the Weekend. (PINS is still closed, as far as I know now). |

| Nice Haul! Can't wait for the tides to get back to normal both in the surf and in the Laguna. Only managed two fish each of the last three days |
