The mullet still are very thin. Although the fishing has been good tonight landed five tarpon and a nice snook but the bait totally blows. Ya you can muster up enough fingers to go fishing but no " Happy Bait". At this point we just got to hang in there and hope October is epic.

When you do see the real schools of bait look for the white holes. These holes are created by big eating fish. If you do not see these white hole an you are not getting any strikes move on until you find the white holes!
