50 yards to the water. but last weekend it was packed there. so we walked down a good ways to get away from crowd. cart or wagon is needed to haul all your stuff if going far

Killed them last weekend with that north wind. Water was the prettiest I've ever seen out there. All keepers, don't have any throwbacks except all the damn sheepshead I kept catching. Yesterday they had another gator on the beach, the SSE wind is a bitch.

What is people's problem with Sheepshead??
I know they're a complete pain to clean... but besides that they're great eating and fun to catch!

The island is going to be wall-to-wall with people this weekend based on last week's reports...

With Elmers being closed to vehicles I doubt we see anything very interesting this summer. Still holding out hope.
