Brings back good memories. Met my wife in Hudson, lived there for 4yrs. Anclote Mental Institution is private and I had a 2nd job there for 2-3 months. Wore the white coats third shift.

First night on job they wouldn't let me out at 8am. I explained I just started at midnight and did not receive my picture badge yet. I had to wait 1 hr till the human resources gal showed up at 9am

I had some lots in Moon Lake finally sold them to the neighbor next door. Rough area.

Three Rooker is just south of Anclote. I used to fish there a lot.

Is it the first island, pretty small, imediately south of Anclote?

That was the Crystal River Group. 2 Cigarettes(38&35), 2 Concepts(36&23), a 30 Scarab and a 30 Baja. What a great weekend trip.

What's with all the biminis, is it hot down there

It is already hot. Plus on a three day trip the sunburn can add up. On the Cigs, we use Anchor Shades. The Concepts have T Tops or Arches with tops.

Sea grass suxs.installing strainers this week if it stops raining.should be at the sand bar this weekend and shepards too.hope to meet up with some locals for a tasty beverage.

Which Sand Bar? I will be in St Pete from Thurs - Sat. Not sure how far north I will make it. I spend allot more time Clearwater to Hudson so I will probably stay from Johns Pass - south.

I will be down this Friday afternoon for the weekend. I can't wait to do some Gulf Coast boating. See you in a few days!

Hopefully we'll be able to run this weekend and come down there to have a few tasty beverages.Not sure what the island/sandbar is called but will find out.We might go to Sheppards on sat.
