Well an excellent month at Mexico Beach Florida is winding down. As usual now that we are getting ready to leave the fishing is getting really excellent. Yesterday we caught about twenty fish including whiting, catfish, a small shark, and a ton of lady fish. A neighbor gave us some tips and gear for catching flounder but I guess we will have to wail until fall to catch our first flounder. (We will definitly stop here again on our way to Crystal River)
Ron and Nancy spent last week visiting and we thoroughly enjoyed their company. They stayed at the El Governor Motel and that place gets two thumbs up from me on the view they had of ocean sunsets. Ron and I spent a lot of time fishing and didn't kick butt but we didn't get shut out either. Ron did hook two really good sized fish that broke his line but we didn't catch any pompanos, flounders, or sharks. Guess I still need some work on my guide skills. I really enjoyed the night fishing we did and only wish we could have caught the one that got away. We also spent a day running around Panama City Beach, where Ron kicked my butt on a go kart track.
We are pulling out of here Friday and heading for Nashville, Tennessee, then onto Holly Michigan to see the kids and welcome a new grandchild.
Still peeling, still reeling in our "adventures" traveling from VA to FLA in the hail & tornadoes" in Nan's NEW SUV, the fire at our Hotel still has FF Ron telling the guys at work about our stay...and we are still finding sand EVERYWHERE! Ron enjoyed running, biking & ocean swimming in BOTH time zones. WE WILL DEFINATELY VISIT Y'ALL IN MEXICO BEACH AGAIN !!!
