Nice! I knew Tuesday would be a great day. I Haven't had time this year to get on the water this winter. Glad you spanked them!!! BTW, Topwater Grant caught 30" on a pink cork the other day.

Re: E Matty

Nah, I stop fishing from May thru Sept, and start again around October thru April. My first time out was last week trying to get used to the Outback. I sold the PA and bought a used Hobie Outback wanting something lighter, I will go back to the PA soon, need more storage and room.

Video of Speckle Trout feeding, Lighting Fast

Re: Torquedo 403 ultralight vs WS Helix Drive Opinions

I looked at the Torquedo 3 years ago for my Hobie PA and could not justify 2500.00. I decided if I need power I will go with a 2.5 HSP Suzuki, 29LB, with built in gas tank. Price $775.00 Island Hopper has motor mounts for different types of kayaks.

Few Bites, Big Fish

I haven't been on the water for weeks and I needed my fish therapy bad! Like Slayer said, the bite was tough. Got on the water at 11:00 and spoke to some guys wading and they said it was slow. Started fishing in deeper water nothing, went to some areas I like to fish and the same story, nothing. Dec...

Re: Fishing w/ barometric pressure

Tobin said it best! Pre frontal bite is the best and most aggressive and it's usually due to a dropping barometer and some other factors combined.

Re: axis deer

Cows weigh a lot compared to an Axis deer. Obviously, a cow will consume more grass. If there is over population of Axis deer in that region I guess it's possible to have grass shortages.
