awesome..i have relatives in scottsmoore so i put in at the north end of indian river at the ramp there it's right by thier house. Also put in towards the south end of the goon and paddle to the pole and troll area.
I usually throw a clear doa shrimp to reds if i see them, or just reel it just above thegrass.

My success is pretty spotty i prob should be going at day light instead of 10 am.

I'm guessing you are fishing amongst the islands.

last trip..came across a line of several mantees in shallow water that must have thought i was a big
gator they stampeded. Manatee Stampede= shallow water..huge water thrown 10-20 feet high in a line 50 yards long, big big noise. It was incredible how much water was up.

It worked they scared me away.
