went to safety harbor on 12/6 no one was there except mullet fisherman. they had a good day right when i got there there was a massive school of mullet maybe a thousand and each of them got atleast thirty. well i castnetted some pins and fist fish was a catfish very odd to me. then i saw some greenbacks and i thought i could get some of those and get some silver trout.well i threw the net and my net started freaking out and it was really haevy first i thought it was mullet, then i thought it was a manatee, then it comes up and i thought itwas a dead guy! then he started moving and it was a scuba diver? ???diving in 3 feet of water? whatever. i wasnt catching anything so i went to the marina and looked like there wasnt any snook i know they're there but its hard to get them to bite so a half an hour went by and i tried something i havnt tried there sheeps head. i had an abundence of barnacles and those little shrimp and litttle crabs. and sky jays idea worked like a charm.i decided to chum the boat ramp casue i caught a sheeps head there in my net so i thought my best luck would be there. plus the weather was bad so i didnt think and boats would be goin out and no cars with trailers were anywere so i thought i was safe. so in a half hour about 4 to 7 big sheepies showed up. the first one that went for my 1/0 hook broke my line. so i bumped up to a thirty pound leader. and as i was doing that a boat showed up and it was raining and windy but he still went out scared all the fish away and they never came back either i wsnt donna get a bucket of chum again so i left but ill try again.
