Aside from chickens and turkles fishing was brutal today. Fished all my deep spots low and slow with plastics and ended with only 2 flounder and one drum. Hits spots from the JFK to Pureoil. I'm going to do it again in the morning. The water clarity is awesome. IMS _________________ I LIKE MINE FRIED. |

| talk to three neighbors today and they had the same results. 1 trout and 3 drum between three different fisherman Thinking tomorrow should have fish turned on. I won't be out though as I am one of the 67% that this year's flu shot did not work on. Type "A" hit me. |

Fished this afternoon from 4 till dusk around Pita and didn't get a single bump.
But, the water is crystal clear.
Good luck tomorrow. _________________ You have 2 choices in life: The right one or the easy one. |

Yes one was 16 and one was 18. The drum was 20. Slim pickins . The water is very cold saw quite a few stunned mullet on top of the water. The birds were having a hay day. I would like to see a 10 deg water warm up. _________________ I LIKE MINE FRIED. |

The gulls and pelicans are having a feast in the canals too, but not on breasted out ducks. LOTS of cold-stunned dead fish. Saw dozens and dozens of dead mullet and irish pompano. Many more dazed mullet who on their way out of this world. Talk about easy picking for a giant trout.
Also saw a few of these floating in the canals, along with some mangroves.
Water was VERY cold, even though yesterday was a mild day. The flats were much warmer, and most of the live mullet were there warming up.
Oh and I'm with Stan, VERY slow for me yesterday afternoon from 3 til sundown. One dink trout and undersized flounder. _________________ ...if my boss ever finds this forum I'll be unemployed... |

I saw the GW's out in their airboat this morning checking duck hunters. Hopefully they caught those guys. |
