In 1977 as all have said, was the biggest kill on
record. We spent the day in the Lil' No Bones (flats boat)
scooping up so may Snook out of the Tomoka River
and Thompsons Creek that it took 3 of us 4 hours
to clean them all. Matt you remember that for sure
when you were smokey the bear on water skis.
Even the FMP looked the other way back then cause
they knew they were going to die.

See ya, Ken

I walked down to the barge canal off the Withlacoochee river, and counted 4 dead tarpon on Tuesday, and 5 dead snook within 10 minutes. The snook were all under 3 lbs/18", but one of the tarpon was in the 100-150 lb range, close to 6' long. I took a photo with my cell phone, but it didn't come out. A boater picked him out of the water and said he was going to have him mounted.

We have had 12 straight days below freezing, and 13 of 14 days this year. We've had 5 days reaching below 20*, and two days reaching 12* or 13*. It snowed here on Saturday past, and stuck to the ground. We have not been above 50* at my house for 9 straight days, and only 1 day reached above 50* this year. Today, we are finally supposed to reach 54*-56*.

The Citrus County Chronicle (aka the Citrus County Comical) published an editorial that blamed the cold weather on Global Warming...no kidding.

If you read carefully what the global warming models are predicting, its for overall average warming AND greater variability which means worse droughts, worse floods and colder blasts in winter as well as hotter temps in summer. They could be wrong, but what we are seeing is what has been predicted.

"Professor Mojib Latif, one of the world's leading climate modelers thinks the cold snap Americans have been suffering through is only the beginning. He says we're in for 30 years of cooler temperatures -- a mini ice age, he calls it, basing his theory on an analysis of natural cycles in water temperatures in the world's oceans."
