Probably should post this on the Fishing Reports Forum but .... .
My earlier quote from a Florida State board:
The water level was real low on the canal today like everywhere else I suppose. The Speck bite was on from when we started at about 7am to when the high wind came up at about 9:30am. Then the Specks stopped biting when the high wind came up no matter what we used. If the wind had not been up, we were doing real good and probably would have gotten a lot more than just the six in the short time drifting. We used jigs, live minnows (only hook), and jigs tipped with minnows all about four feet down below a float and that is how we caught most of them. The largest was 12 inches. I did manage to get two on the fly rod using a slow sinking fly line and a #8 yellow chartreuse Crappie Candy fly.Originally Posted by dixieangler
