    Shark Attacks In South Walton

    I had one very interested in a couple of specs I had dangling off my kayak a few years ago when fishing Hogtown Bayou. Seen several ranging from 2-5 feet out around the 2nd sandbar on my paddleboard but never any that were aggressive. I think the fatalities have all been from blood loss. i.e...

    Looking for a restaurant serving Flounder

    Stinky's has it from time to time, and i think i've seen it on the board at Shunk Gulley occasionally as well. Like someone above said, you'll mostly find grouper and snapper since that's what most people prefer. I don't think many of the (mostly) bay fish are commercially harvested enough to...

    I fish around there a good bit. That water is super skinny so they'll have to do some serious dredging.

    Is the water warm enough to swim in?

    MagicSeaweed is a good sight for wave and water temp info. And like some others have said, there will be some people in the water regardless of date or temp (myself included). The cold water is great for inflammation.

    Bullard Road beach access in Dune Allen

    I'd seen it listed as a NEIGHBORHOOD beach access, which could be taken to mean its only for residents of Beach Highlands. Wonder if that's where the confusion comes from.

    Bullard Road beach access in Dune Allen

    Can anyone tell me if this is a deeded or dedicated beach access owned by the county (or some other non-private entity)? I'm looking at property around there and wanted to make sure that that was an 'official' access and not some illegal footpath that would one day be gone. Thanks in advance.
