    Redeared Sunfish .. they have a "crusher" in their throat for crushing shelled stuff (sanils and etc.).

    Plenty of streams in the area and the lakes off the river contain most of the crappie fishing ... Several large state made lakes in north part of area I don't really know if they have crappie in them but they have some of the largest bass in the area as well as great bluegill fishing.

    Hope that helps

    Thanks for the replies. I have been in florida a couple of times now and am always impressed with the hospitality of the folks I meet. Thanks again.

    sandy landing is off of chumuckla hwy. to get to post and bend, you have to go down river. If my memory is right, it the first slough on the right, after about 5 or 6 bends. You cant go very far down river passed it because of the log jam.
