Pat(602)sent this picture of his wife, Sibyl, with their catch for Thursday.

We had a pretty good day on Thursday. Did not get on the water until 9:15 and back by noon. I have never seen the trout bite that consistent. Every cast would be a bite. We got into the dinks early on and used up a lot of our live shrimp. We then drifted about 50 yards and started picking up keeper trout. They were also hitting very well on Gulps until we ran out of Gulps and shrimp.
Went back on Friday morning and boxed 5 before we left to get on the road back to Austin. The bite was not as good as Thursday, but still pretty good. Unfortunately, the porpoises were in the area and perhaps that made the difference.
I really thought that when we left the marina that it would just be a waste of time as there was a whole lot of fresh water in the area around the marina. The water looked just like the color of a Pepsi. I am surprised that the shrimp stayed alive in the bait well. Maybe all of the fresh water pushed the fish over to St. Joe island.
