Surprising given the high winds with the cold front. Water temps will drop fast with this.

I believe the front pushed them into the bay and they may be 50 miles south tomorrow

I believe with the front hitting late afternoon...the Mack's bit well with the pressure moving. I spoke with Bryan and he caught 61 today.

Guys, guys.....the macks don't ever leave. they hang around all year I think most of them migrate out. Maybe a few stay. I have caught isolated macks in water cold as 64F at Ft Desoto.

In what I have read, Most Macks migrate to warmer waters south of us in the Caribbean in the Winter & come back in the early Spring. This is why most of the Macks are caught on the outgoing tide in the Winter. Some Macks do stay in the shallow waters on the rivers off of Tampa Bay where the waters are warmer to lay their eggs. Then when Macks return in the early spring, they are always found first in the Shallows of Tampa Bay rather that the Deep Waters of Tampa Bay where the waters are warmer.

Yes, it's about over for macks, 2 buds went out this morning and got one 18", said the bait is also thinning out. Sunday 11/24 I fished around light pole #15 and got over 35 on a sinker rig with a white aluminum spoon. I gave away 32, one was 23". Next day they were not there.
