Made a solo trip Friday and someone forgot to tell the flying teeth that it is January. The further you got back in the marsh the more hungry they were.

I was looking for a change of pace so I decided to check out some new areas off of the ICW that I have been looking at on Google Earth.

Made a foggy launch at the Chef and headed a little ways down the Intercoastal. Tried for some trout.... Read More

Hello. I'm getting back into fishing after a 20+ yr break. I was wondering if the pass from Lake St. Catherine to the Intracoastal Waterway is navigational under what seem's to be a train tressle? I'm trying to cut down travel time from the Rigolet boat launch out to Chef Pass.

Thanks for any help that you can cast my way

Do the ducks flock to the WMA to rest or eat? Or both? What's the natural food source? Is there any food left after the storm?

Does anyone know for sure what the pond baiting rules are? I've heard a million different things. I hear you can bait your pond but it has to be gone for the season, I've heard that you can bait year round just have to hunt a certain distance away. I don't want to lose my boat but would like to keep some ducks in my area since Isaac killed all the feed
