Yeah it's hard to figure what to do after you catch your limit and about a dozen more in 2 hour sit at the red fish hole we found in the Aucilla. We couldn't buy a trout on the 40 minute troll out there, nor on the way back. So we're off to clean fish and we'll look for some trout tomorrow in the Saint Marks…
We caught all reds on freelined shrimp off an oyster bar that was blocking the incoming tide. A couple more factors in that equation I haven't figured out quite right yet… ?
The warm, spring fed Aucilla river is known for its winter reds, but I didn't notice the temperature of the water today. It's been running about 67 or 68 in the Saint Marks system, so only a couple more degrees needed to start off the big spring fishing season…



The spot contest was won by this guy…

You boys are gonna make me load up the river boat and head that way. Been too long since I prowled the waters of the St Marks and Aucilla Rivers.

Sounds similar to what we found a couple weeks ago on the St. Marks. Incoming tide breaking over oyster bars. Water temp real close.

Made it home today after a long tough post-frontal Saturday...



Slayer and I came home with similar stacks of fee-lays...



What do I do with a wife that has hot corn bread and chili on the stove when I return from a week's fishing?
Guess I'll be keepin her. And going fishing again!
