Jim Mercer with a good one taken on a big tide

Damn, I love to see that !

It seems as though our salt water has turned to fresh water, but that doesn’t seem to bother the fish a bit. We have finally put some of the nasty weather behind us for now and actually had a few glassy days ! That is something we have not had much of this year. Reds are doing it on the low and high water the tarpon are around, but I haven’t seen great numbers, but I have had some reports of fish being caught last week to the south 0f us. The best time to look for poon is when it gets glassy, but that is also the best time to hit the reds, dang it man !

The weather has been tossing us some curves and it has not been that classic light and variable summer pattern. It’s been a bit more like windy and rainy ! Enough whining, the fish have been chewing. Those who have been willing to brave some of the elements have had a good time chasing reds n the shallows. I’m still kind of waiting on more poon, seems as though the fish have held up south of Savannah, and I haven’t had the chance to go give them a peak.
