do a search on this forum and you will find out. I'm not sure what pass you go out of.

someone can probably give you a better description than I, but since I've seen you ask a couple of times, I'll give it a whirl.



Basically, the edge is the edge of the continental shelf...the depth drops from 100-150 to 200+ very quickly and can vary depending on which part of the edge you are on. Lots of rocks and ledges and relief. From P'cola or Perdido Pass, you can basically head due south/southeast and hit the edge in around 30 miles.

I think you'd like the Hilton's maps. Get the "LA. Delta to Destin" one. It encompasses the entire nornthern gulf. Has all the rigs and wrecks and hotspots, plus gives you a great visual on the layout between sites- very valuable when you're runnin from spot to spot. A must have!

The price is $14.99 and most places will have them. Tom Hilton is a PFF member as well.

$14.99 ???? I'm not complaining but I paid $39 buckaroos for mine in O.B. I get my money's worth out of it thats for sure. I even read it while I'm on the pooper(i'm not kidding) I'm not complaining but man that would've been sweet if it was $14 bucks.
