Thanks Tony......our fish are still shallow for the most part David so we attacked shallow fishing merely a foot deep and it paid off immediately and often.....we were mild early Summer and we have received abundant rains which serves to keep the shallows a bit cooler and they were still 84 degrees today so we have been very fortunate in that regard.......I'm getting a blog together that I intend to share on BBG covering the last 82 days in which 3,711 gills have been landed and 11 anglers caught a personal best Sunfish.....just been a remarkable season this year......The fish will get a well deserved break as I will leave for Hawaii soon for a combination of work and a well deserved vacation for my wife.....looking forward to it but I will miss the fishing for sure.....BBG will get me through!

What was the plan, fish the cypress or the channels?
