Crystal River Flats

Sunday April 10th
  My wife and I were out from 8am to 3pm fishing an area About 5 miles / 240 degrees from marker #1. We were over and around a hole about 25 ft deep. We always fish for what ever is biting, bobers, free line drifting, and bottom rigs, so we get a variety of fish. We caught a lot of lady fish, some catfish, a few Jacks, a couple Sea trout, and a half dozen Shark up to about 5 ft.  Of course it's always catch and release. We lost 2 contests with something really large that we never got a look at in that deep spot.
  Our bait was cut Mullet, Squid, and live Shrimp. We also had a chum block out most of the time. There were schools of bait fish around the boat all day. We were even surprised by an aerial display when a 6 ft sting ray came flying out of the water not too far from our boat.
  Action was constant and exciting, never knowing what was waiting to take the hook.
