Hey guys,
So me and the wife went and tried out the Anclote Power plant on Monday. First time out in the area so it was also recon for Kayaking opportunities. We fished from the Anclote Gulf Park, but the wind was blowing South to North which meant the wind was blowing against any cast i tried to make into the warm water out flow.
I only saw one fish (a nice convict) before we left. The boats came and went, even those that got right up against the barrier to the no boat zone.
It was still a good time, even though we got skunked. There is a huge bald eagles nest just off the River park, always nice to see the national symbol alive and well on Presidents Day. Other than that, pretty un-eventful.
Question: Do the power plants only discharge at certain times? I.E) If i dont see smoke from the stacks does that mean they are offline or not generating at peak out flow? Just curious in case i just mis-timed the trip, and should plan around the peak outflow plumes.
thanks,
Jason
