Hypothermia
When it comes down to it, life is full of some really hard
decisions. I recall my senior year of high school and trying to
decide on what college to attend. To be honest I was overwhelmed; my
dad, realizing my dilemma, stepped in and offered some of his great
fatherly wisdom and together we decided on Clemson University. By
far this is one of the best and most important decisions I ever
made, and my parents supported me 150%. Clemson prepared me in so
many ways for life and it was a downright awesome place to learn.
Just about every weekend after football season my friends and I were
in the mountains; mountain biking, camping, hiking, and of course
fishing.

SAFMC Meeting
Reminder!
The South Atlantic Fishery Management Council is
holding a series of 5 scoping meetings across the southeast to
receive public comment on current management issues. The meeting
series begins this coming Monday, March 3.
The meetings will be held from 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM and
from 6:00 PM until 8:00 PM. Members of the public are invited to
attend at any time during those hours.
These meetings offer a unique opportunity for the
fishing public and those interested in fisheries resources. This is
the first time that the majority of the Council’s technical staff,
including the SEDAR Stock Assessment Coordinator, will be on hand to
answer questions and discuss the scoping issues and other topics.
There will be no “formal” presentations – but ample opportunity to
ask questions, learn more about upcoming fisheries issues, discuss
concerns, and provide comment. Staff and area Council members will
be available throughout the meeting hours. Members of the public can
provide recorded comments. All recorded comments will be distributed
to the Council to consider at their March 3-7, 2008 meeting in
Jekyll Island, GA.
Copies of the scoping meeting documents are available
online at
www.safmc.net or by calling the Council office. Written comments
can also be submitted until February 22, 2008 – details are in the
scoping documents.
Topics for public scoping include:
• A Comprehensive Allocation Amendment – dealing with possible
methods of allocations between recreational and commercial fishermen
(and within each sector);
• Amendment 17 to the Snapper Grouper Fishery Management Plan –
addressing Annual Catch Limits (ACLs) as mandated by the
reauthorized Magnuson-Stevens Act, possible further reductions in
snowy grouper landings, bycatch assessment/reduction, etc.;
• Limited Access Privilege Programs – being considered for the commercial
snapper grouper fishery;
• Allocation of the South Atlantic commercial king mackerel quota
Plan now to attend a meeting in your area. Your
assistance in publicizing these meetings is appreciated!

The Final Word |
We have
had some nice days to fish this past weekend and week. Had a
lot going on myself and only managed a boat cruise with my
wife before the Super Bowl, sad to say we never picked up a
rod. Those that have been fishing are doing good on the
Reds. Water is super clear and the fish are all over the
flats. Fish are holding in very large schools so it takes
some luck to pull one out without spooking the rest. Cut
bait, grubs, spoons, they are hitting it all. There are
still a few Trout around as well, most are holding around
docks and shell beds and are hitting grubs, DOA shrimp under
floats, and Mirrorlures.
The Sheepshead are at the rocks, and a few are starting to
move to the artificial reefs. Offshore bottom fishing action
remains strong from 60 feet and beyond.
Tight
lines…
