Ice on the boat and a coooooold ride!!! I had Ron, Jim and Joe on board from the Villages fishing club today and with a gulf water surface temp at 49 degrees, I was a bit worried. Typically the trout won't bite when it's that cold, so thank goodness for sheepshead. The bite was extremely slow for the day and to be honest, I was getting worried with only having a handful for a couple hours of fishing. Eventually the fish got happy around 2pm and we had a nice catch to end the day. I thank you all for the fun time and I look forward to next time... Capt. Dan
