Man I hate to miss this challenge but unfortunately I will be enjoying my family in the white sands of the Alabama Coast. My wife and I will be celebrating our 40th anniversary and my son David and wife Jacquline their 16th. Will be walking the beaches carrying gallon buckets picking up seashells with my girls. Life Is Good And I Am So Blessed. So with that said enjoy and be safe........Ranger

My goodness, everyone I have talked to is going to Gulf Shores within the next 30 days. What is the attraction?

Ah the Redneck Riviera. Used to take our family there most summers and always spent one day catching red snapper out on the cheap party barges. General George the attraction is that its close. It's cheap. And the kids loved every minute of it unless the wind blew the jellyfish in. Some good cheap golf courses in the area as well. Mark, buy the kids each a 10" small mesh dip net and have fun trying to identify all the weird stuff they bring you from the ocean. We have already booked a big house on the beach as soon as we get back in the states. Have fun guys.

I am unable to make it that weekend, so my words are not very loud. However, I and many of the other people enjoyed having the "Gains Creek Challenge". It leveled the playing field for everyone, and there was plenty of water to fish. maybe we could still have a "Gains Creek Challenge" and a "Eufaula Lake Challenge".

Thanks CC. Never heard of a sand flea rake but I will definitely check that out. Sounds like another must have tool.
