We decided to fish Flamingo/Snake Bight today, so we ran the boat over behind the Truck and launched on the bayside ramp. those of you who dont know, you can fish the bayside or fish back in the park in the hells bay/whitewater areas and beyond, you just have to pick the correct ramp for the direction you want to go. there is also a marine lift to get your small boat on the other side if you decide to switch.

well anyway, we fought the wind (20+ from the East) but still had a decent day, most fish came from a live shrimp-popping cork combo. we landed snook, redfish, seatrout, jacks, snapper, ladyfish, and even a large nurse shark on the unluck ladyfish.

not bad at all for a half day trip, we where gonna make it a full day but it was just to uncomfortable to bounce around.

no pitures this week as we where hanging on....

let me know if you want to make the trip :)
