I'm ready
Could have been one of those sharks. Every once in a while I check out the ocearch.org page. it is something to see how close those tiger sharks and great whites come in sometimes to the georgia coast.Last time we went I bumped into something very large on the deep end of the net, down toward Jekyll point, near the green channel marker; not sure what it was, but it was big. Possibly a tarpon or alligator, wasn't a manatee. Did not get in the net, so can't say.
Tide will be right to shrimp St. Andrews, may see you there depending on weather. Blue crabs can be caught seining in numbers higher than traditional crabbing.

Possibly a tarpon or alligator, wasn't a manatee. Did not get in the net, so can't say. We decided to avoid it and went back to the dock to continue seining. We ended up the night with approximately 50+ pounds of brown shrimp of good size. Nothing like a little excitement to get the blood flowing.
Mullet show up occasionally and that leads to problems with dolphins. Should you see them before you start seining, it would be wise to wait till they move on before starting to avoid holes in your net.
