I fished out off of 27 north of 75 this a.m. I usually go to the second boat ramp on the west side but there redoing the dock (about time). So i drove a little north to the 4th ramp. There was plenty of water. Once i had the boat in the water i headed north to the end (broward palm beach county line). Nothing was biting in that area, not even a blip on the fish finder, so i trolled back south. Made my way done one of the fingers canals and managed to catch one all they way at the end. He hit a horny toad and weighed just under 3.5. Headed back south some on the main canal and started fishing again. Caught another on a slug-go, along the shore line. He was small but a keeper. Managed one more on a raplala crank bait. Other then that i didn't even get a bite. My fished finder was showing a fish here or there but basically nothing was showing up. None the less it was fun, was off the water by 12:30. Oh ya i was also using a devils horse, zara spook, fluke, flipping, rattle trap.

Sounds like you had fun despite the lack of action.

All the rain has increased the water levels which slows the bite.

Welcome to the site!

It's been tough lately.... that's fer sure...... Anyone fishing Night Owls next Friday?

They head for the flats when the water comes up.

I don't care how hot the water is.

Agree as it only gets better as the water cools down. As high as the water is at Holiday it isn't at crazy high levels. Was it last year or the year before the water was in the parking lot at Holiday for about a month, right about now. I have heard it is tough going (always is but tougher than normal) due to all the growth that occurred when the flats were high and dry earlier this year) but I plan to get back in a couple of the cuts and see if I can make my way around. Love the Flats!

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
