atcoha Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 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. Quote
kikstand454 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 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! Quote
atcoha Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 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. Quote
kikstand454 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 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! Quote
atcoha Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 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. 1 Quote
kikstand454 Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 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. Quote
