Well the hurricanes got us pretty good, So glad that Ivan is not in our way. I hope to get back to fishing here in Florida.
It was pretty awful. Anyone else get hit? |

Re: Hurricanes
Maine hasn't been hit by a hurricane since 1950 I hear.
Ironically, that year we were hit by 2 hurricanes in two weeks, right back to back. Usually we just end up getting some rain from the remains. Every 10 years or so a tropical storm comes and we get some wind. |

Re: Hurricanes
Im near Atlanta,
and believe it or not, it's about the biggest dang storm I've ever seen... ...bin windy as heck, and raining so hard it hurts wen u step outside. I guess this means that everything's flooded, and no bass fishing till the water level goes back down (which will take a while)... :'( oh well, at least no school tomorrow, seaphantom |

Re: Hurricanes
We got it fairly bad here in south Mississippi. Not near as bad as it could have been. I feel for all that got hit head on because it was bad enough here. I live 50 miles from the coast of Ms, and I was up at 3am cutting trees off of homes. I didn't have power myself for 12 hours. I can only imagine what the people that got hit head on got. We had 75 to 100mph winds here, and I felt them. Unfortunately I was out in it the whole time. Fortunately nobody was hurt around here.

Re: Hurricanes
Well we have had a ton of rain and wind here in tuscaloosa, but damage seems to be fairly light. I'm more worried about my aunts place on mobile bay, I wonder how much is left.

When the water rises, it can turn on the fishing along the edges, where the NEW areas are for the fish. Just my opinion, but I think after heavy rains it CAN BE some of the best fishing there is Lizards |

Water was somewhat muddy and very full. Caught several on a buzzbait. Fish were definetely shallow. Hopefully, no more rain for a while. |
