WINTER 03' – NEWSLETTER

What’s New: Tricia and I were married this past summer and have recently found out that we’re expecting our first baby this summer! (8/4/03)

How’s Fishing: The weather has been cold, real cold! Water temperature dropped to 51 degrees this past week. But they should be the low for the Winter. The fishing is a little tougher when it’s that cold. The fish go into shock, all but the sheepshead. They’ve turned on and big sheepshead too. This time of year they fill the inland and near coastal waters to spawn. Good eating fish and a decent fight. The waters are already starting to warm and the month of February is predicted to be much more mild. The trout and pompano should turn back on soon. The best thing is that there is always something to catch.

Backwater Catches: Pompano, trout, sheepshead, small snook and some redfish and black drum.

Offshore catches: Grouper, snapper, spanish mackeral, sheepshead and some kingfish.

March: The waters start warming and the fish start migrating up the coast through the 10,000 Islands and the Gulf of Mexico. Spring is coming.
