Probably going to stay over in st.joe for spring break with the family.  Will be fishing st.joe bay, and thought about trying dead lakes, looks like a great place to visit. Bringing the kayaks and gopro, can't wait. 

Can't find many reports on fishing, a few, some are dated. 

Man, dead lakes is the greatest looking area you will ever see. Its slammed with cover/ structure. Shallow, deep, flats. ... everything.

I've never done any good there. Noone else I know has either. Every once in a while you hear about a tourney out of white city being won in dead lakes. ...

There are fish there. And its beautiful. Please post a report!

thx for the info. I hope I can talk the family into joining me, it does look like a beautiful place in the youtube videos.

Yeah..... like I said. ... its one of those places where your mind tells you every cast could be a 5#fish. ... and then nothing happens. Lol.

Idk, maybe I'm just not dialed into the area. We always runs south to the tidal water. Limits are Easier there. I trully believe the overall size is better in the dead lakes area though.... good luck!

If I strike out, that's alright. I'm sure the slot reds and specks will by in the bay waiting for me and my mirrolures.

There's no doubt about that! Find a deep (er) hole between oyster bars on a falling tide and have at it.

They will also be much father up river than you might think this time of year.

A good gold spoon and a bone spook Jr will kill em too.
