I don't recall it disappearing. It is there, yet always changing and moving around a bit.

I'm almost positive they are back but you can take a look through the photo gallery and see for yourself. It is full of recent pics. PhotoGallery

The sand bar took a hit and the sand has been all over the place. There were all kinds of holes but things are pretty smooth now.

Talking about things being pretty smooth, we were surprised at how hard-packed the sand has become. It was never like that years ago. Now you can play a good game of bacci ball on the beach, no problem. :clap_1:

Maybe all of that scraping kept the white and fluffy off the top.

It is always hard packed in the winter. It works out well because it is possible to walk on the beach with shoes in the winter so your tosies don't get too cold.

That is a nice red. Bigger than any I have caught out there.

I caught that last year in march along with a bunch of catfish and a few small sharks. Can't wait to get back at it!

I had one fin me through the bottom of my sneaker when I was a kid. We were way out on Cape San Blas and the nearest hospital was in Port St. Joe. By the time we got there, my foot was the size of a shoe box.

Nasty, trashy fish they are.
