Thread: Sure miss my little river trips

With all of this rain, I have begun assembling all of the critters around here, two by two, to board my boat when the water level raises it off the trailer.

Not terribly as the heat makes trips less enjoyable. Probably make a run over to the brine this coming weekend. Likely be off the water by 9:30- 10:00am anyway. Fish pull off the flats or tuck waaaay back in the mangroves about the time the sun starts pouring on.

I've been fishing offshore and around Tampa Bay. I can't seem to figure out the summer fishery locally, aside from bass, and I just don't get big into bass fishing.

I've been doing a little playing here on Griffin, but not much to speak of. Heal well my friend, you'll get out soon.

Get well soon, how long before you can go?
If the rain ever stops.

Send some rain this way.We are drying up.some of the hottest days on record.

Thanks for asking guys. I drove for the first time today, and my collarbones have been talking to me ever since. I don't see any boat time for another month. Not real sure that I could fight a big fish if I went throwing a frog in the grass. I'm just hoping the rain quits enough that the river goes down by early October when we have a gathering planned. River is in flood stage and most ramps are closed. If you do go on the river it's idle only to cut the damage to the river homes. I know what a caged animal feels like now but not having someplace to fish 3 miles down the road makes it a little easier. Good doctor reports so I guess I should be quiet and count my many blessings. The best of which is my wife, I don't know what I would do without her. Might start tying some jigs to break the monotony, I've definitely got the time.

Wright some stories up if you got time. Or maybe some fishing tips. Share some of the wealth you got stuck up in your head. Just a suggestion. Might provide you an outlet for all that energy imho!
