Hell... after 25 years I may start diving again. Those are really amazing. Wish you would have put the wreck names on all of them!

Firefishvideo

Thanks!.....A lot of them are on natural reefs between trysler and timberholes....the others that do not have names on the player...that's just youtube f'ing up my videos....youtube does not give you much to choose from in choosing the displayed frame, and for some reason only randomly displays the title....I'LL have to work on that!

Feelin wright. If u could pm me that link as well I'd appreciate it. I have fished most of the public reef wrecks but it would be nice to see layouts and stuff to see if we r maximizing our stay.

All of them hold fish. I would target the ruble sites and deeper barges. Not to burst a bubble but March is not the best month. It is one of the windiest months and most species will be closed. I would guess out of the 31 days in March 4 or 5 of them are going to be decent in a 22 footer.

Nothing wrong with the 22 footer. I ran all over the gulf in a 21 footer for 10 years. But good days in March are tough.

If I waited till end the of April would any new species be open. Less wind? obviously warmer.

Depending on what the federal yo yos do, something might be open by April. April is the traditional cobia run and they come in close. They are not my thing though. Gag grouper may or may not be open in April. I think mingo will be along with trigger. On the inside, the specs and refish will start moving back into the grass.

For weather, Feb is cold and windy on average. March can be cold or warm day to day but still often breezy. April is usually fairly warm but still not the best month for wind on average. We don't really fall into our summer pattern of calm winds unless something is brewing in the gulf until late May or early June. Not trying to scare you away. There may be 2 weeks of straight gorgeous weather in April but it is hard to tell.

Remember to look at the weather systems themselves, not just the seas forecast. Within a couple of days of a front SE winds will stir things up in the gulf. The front goes through and the wind blows like hell out of the North, usually laying down the second day. But if you're fishing a wreck within a couple miles of the beach a N or NW wind can actually be friendly, especially if you wait to come when we've had some spanish show up and want to troll in shallow. Don't forget the redfish and sheepshead in the pass and around the Pickens pier. Let one of the local tackle shops rig you up and be sure to carry some fresh shrimp or fiddler crabs if you want to tackle the sheepshead.

Do you think the sheepshead will still be there at the end of March? We will be fishing during the week. Perhaps we will chase some cobia as well.

Great site. I am new to it and glad to see a place just for us, P'cola!!!!

It's always fun to be able to go down on a site that's not producing a bite, see the fish staring at the baits in the water, pick out dinner and take it home. You don't wait on them to bite, you bite them. Just saying.

+1 on Firefish's videos. Good stuff.
