Thanks. Any tips on hoe to find'em? Went out today and all we found was 2-3ft tall seagrass which made it incredibly difficult to see the bottom where thr scallops would be. Contrasted to out of WW where there was only short grasses where it was super easy to see scallops sitting on/in it. We couldn't crack the code in the tall grass before the weather made us call it.

He said he was on the back side of anclote island in the grass flats. He said it’s was a tough task. I just went to homosassa today and we killed it! 6 gallons in 1 1/2 hours between 3 of us

Wow, nice job! We had a tough day with just awful vis. Ended up finding them at end of day. Had to feel around for them was the only thing really working.

Went out today and was just south of Homosassa channel in 5-6ft of water. Managed a 2 person limit in 2 hours.

Re: weeki watchee scallop eport

On Saturday we hit Homosassa Bay in the middle somewhere, 6-8' deep, checked a couple spots and found enough. My best was 9 in one dive. Mostly getting pretty good sized now.

We were almost the first boats out there, but at the end around noon there were probably upwards of 500 boats. 360 degrees of boats as far as you could see....

Fun times, thanks for the tips!
