Mini-season

Was wondering how it's going? Any impact from last years Irma? Got blown out here in Pinellas County for the 2 days due to rain and wind..

Re: Mini-season

Marathon was tough as usual. I’d say 1/10nth of my spots filled in with sand.

But Irma messed up lots of lobster traps and the bugs this year were bigger than normal.

Chuck, I know the feeling. Some of my 1'-2' ledges with nice cracks, holes and under cuts are sand filled in from Irma off St. Petersburg. You have a nice looking haul of bugs.
