Where's the guy with the little electric snowblower?

We were supposed to get 4-8" of snow, but the storm passed north of us,
and we got 2-3" max, though there are snow showers forecast for today.
It's -11C right now, though, and the winds are howling. I haven't been
outside yet today. Looks pretty miserable.


We're not totally immune down here in Florida either. It's a chilly 58F
right now. ;-)

Seas are 2 feet right now, but building to 10 feet this evening with NW
winds 20-25 knots. The temp is supposed to drop 25 degrees over the next
12-18 hours. The Tampa area (160 miles north of me) is issuing Gale
warnings, with seas 9-13 feet, and temps 27-32F.




Sounds like a good day for the semi-annueal SW Florida Dental Assn
Fishing Tournament.



I went out today anyhow. Fished the back waters, and it wasn't too bad
if I fished the leeward side of the mangroves. My 5 year old and I
caught countless mangrove snappers and sheepshead on live and cut shrimp.
All were teeny tiny, but it sure beats the snow.




Here's a weird tip. When I lived in NE Florida and fished a lot with live
shrimp, I tossed the ones that didn't survive in the livewell in a glass
jar filled with diet pepsi and stuck it overnight in the fridge. For
reasons totally unknown to me, the next day, those pepsi-soaked shrimp
were gangbusters as dead bait the next day. Coke did not work.


How the heck did you ever think of even trying that?
