It's been a typicalwinter so far. Mostly mild temperatures with a day or two of cold frontseach week. Same goes for the winds. Look for windy days most of theweek with one or two days when it calms down a little. Water temperatureshave dropped this week with the last cold front, but some sunshine will bringit back up to the high sixties. The water has been murky the past severaldays after the cold front chopped things up a bit. It will clear up fastthough.


Fishing continuesto be good if you are looking for some of the wintertime catch of drum,sheepshead and assorted other fish. We have been catching some bigsheepshead lately and you can find them around just about any structure thistime of year. Drum will be hanging in the same places. Look forcroakers around deeper cuts of the area. Snook fishing around the bridgesand jetties has held up nicely for night anglers. We have been gettingsome nice trout in the deeper cuts on the river this week. Ron, Mike andRay found a couple nice over 18". Al and Ryan found lots of sheepsheadon their fishing adventure. Jacks are insane right now. It's hardto catch the other fish when they are tearing up the place, but they are fun.


It's important thistime of year to dress in layers. With cold mornings and warm afternoons,you need to be able to cope with the temperatures and layering makes it easy todeal with. Don't forget sunscreen! It's easy to forget in winter,but you can get sun damage easily this time of year!
