[QUOTE="Grnwing, post: 4571958, member: 14910"] Thanks again for the feedback on the lure selection fishboy! I have plenty of trays full of baby 1's and will switch out hooks. I am looking into getting the maps for my Lowrance unit and making sure everything works. I have a lot of clauser flies from my Everglades years but need to get some more copper colored shrimp/crab imitations for my fly options. I did take a look at the tides for the month of March and the end of the month had really good water flow (1.3ft) on a 2 tide day but since I am not familiar with the water and don't have a anything to base the flow on, I opted for the early part of the month to hit a 4 tide cycle with less moving water. I feel mixed about passing up on moving water but I know I would end up too far back and risk getting stuck, not something I want to do on my first go at it. I spent the rainy weekend going over my boat and trailer and had planned on putting new bearings on my hubs. My current set had been on there for almost 13 years and were always well greased but didn't want to risk loosing time on the water for something that was preventative. I was really glad I did, as soon as I took the wheel off I saw one of my leaf springs was completely broke and pressing up against the trailer frame. I have no idea how long that had been but have to think it just happened. I picked up some new springs and bearing kits and essentially rebuilt my trailer. I'll leave at 2 AM on Sat March 10 and return late on Monday the 12th. I will try and do a good job of documenting the trip so i can post an update upon my return. I really appreciate everyone''s feedback and input! Thanks [/QUOTE]
