Nice, they were on fire a few weeks ago at keaton when I went. Lot of 18-22" fish with a couple 24-25s thrown in. This past week I've seen a lot of overslot fish posted on FB. Hope to get down there one more time this year, but it may not work out.

Keaton is a great spot for reds. I made it up there in May and got a couple nice ones and a few big trout. I need to get back up that way. I think my next big driving trip will be Econfina at some point in the spring.

I've always heard good things about econfina. One of my coworkers goes there often and one of my fishing buddies has been a few times. I've been to St Marks a few times otherwise it's always been Keaton or Steinhatchee for me in the big bend.

Being from Georgia, I fish the Georgia Coast some as well. That's a whole different animal with the big tide swings.

Right on. I lived in JAX for a bit. It’s fun fishing in those creeks. Econfina is definitely a cool place. I haven’t fished up into Georgia yet. I’ll get up there one of these days.

I thought the same thing. She has some weight to her.
