42" Redfish - St. Joseph Bay, Cape San Blas

A Tropical Breeze has been booked with our wonderful guests all summer.  This past Wednesday was our first gap since mid May, so we took a quick trip down to enjoy the beach and do some fishing. This picture was taken on Thursday in the St. Joseph Bay.  My son, Cody and his buddy caught the fish about 1:30 in the afternoon using a pin fish as bait. They netted the pin fish just outside of Eagle Harbor and hooked the red fish about 1/4 mile out of Eagle Harbor.  The fish was too big to keep but after a two hour fight to land it, they managed to get this great picture to share, before releasing it back into the bay.

While they were fishing, I spent several relaxing hours sitting on the beach in front of A Tropical Breeze. The weather was perfect!  

 One of the highlights of the trip for me was seeing the three sea turtle nests on the beach in front of A Tropical Breeze.  Last year we didn't have any nests near our home so this was a wonderful surprise.  Maybe I will be there to see them hatch.

Fishing and Biking on Cape San Blas

Just back from Cape San Blas.  Our daughter had a three day weekend so we decided to head on down from Atlanta.  Every time I pack for a 3 day weekend, I wonder if it's worth the effort, however once I'm on Cape San Blas I never regret the decision.  The weather was great for early March and both our daughter and her friend got sun burnt.  Rob fished both Saturday and Sunday and caught a few small redfish and whiting. Even though I packed plenty of food, we ended up at Coneheads for ice cream on Friday and  dinner on Saturday.  We enjoyed Coneheads excellent hamburgers and fries, as well as the chicken parmesan sandwich. They were quite busy, which was good to see this time of year.

After our dinner at Coneheads, we had a bonfire on the beach in front of A Tropical Breeze, enjoyed the abundant stars and roasted marshmallows for s'mores.  Our only regret was not bringing our bikes.  The extended Loggerhead Bike Trail is almost complete and runs from St. Joseph State Park to the beginning of the Cape and Salinas Park.  Construction is in it's final phase with just the last mile under contruction.  We saw families, snowbirds and serious bikers all enjoying this great new addition.
