    Default Istapoga report


    Finnly got a brake from work. I was going to try Kissimmee river, but the water wasn`t running. ( don`t do well this time of year if it`s not moveing). Went to Istapoga insted had to hunt around to find fish. found them on drop off in 5 to 6 fow. ended up catching 42 and keeped 19. Longlined to find them then spyder rigged. blk / chart, wht / chart, and chart were best tiped with minnows.

    Good report! The only time I was ever on Istapoga was about three months ago. I left from the landing at Lorida and never found any water deeper than 3 ft!*l*..and lots of muck....Were these taken more over toward the islands? I never got that far over .

    Hey fishin813, 3 yrs or 6 yrs all the same when you old like me. I'd rather remember something from 6 yrs ago and think it's 3 , than something from 3 yrs ago and think it's 6. Did that make sense, I'm not sure, I just made it up. lol You poor guys, I'm coming to Talquin. I can't wait to bs with yall. haha
