Larry, a new and potentially interesting opportunity might come my way. I am a West/Northwest guy, born and raised, but it looks like I may have an employment move to the Southeast. LOL - you cannot get much different.
Now don't get me wrong, I have fished warm salt there before, but always with a guide, and not for many years. I got to thinking, you go to new areas in the WORLD all the time, I suspect not knowing the species or the water, and you find a way to make it work. Normally when I go to new water I at least know something about the species I will target so all I have to do is read the water.
What is your game plan when you go to a location that you have neither fished before, or have detailed information about?
PS, I am glad I am a C&R guy for the most part; probably won't be able to tell one grouper from another.
