Vulnerable wear and stress points are double reinforced with an extra tough material sewn to the underside of the cover. An unbreakable 1/4' poly draw rope sewn with the perimeter hem enables the cover to be cinched tight to the hull. 1' poly loops are sewn around the perimeter of the cover to accept a Hurricane strap/buckle tie down kit, bungee cords, or rope ties for positive securing to the boat.

Tampa Bay Area Fishing Report:
The Apollo Beach power plant has been a busy place lately. My last two trips to fish the warm water outflow have produced some nice bonnethead sharks, black tips, and some really big Jacks. The cobia have been hard to spot on the surface due to the moderate chop we have had on the bay from all the wind. We managed to hook up with one real nice one though while tossing a gold spoon next to the channel marker at the entrance into the channel that runs back into the warm water outflow. Overall, the fishing at the plant has been okay. I think that as we head into February if we get some more cold snaps that the fishing at the plant will just get better. Over by the Gandy bridge on the Tampa side and the surrounding rip rap the sheepshead and mangrove snapper have provided some nice light tackle fun. Small fiddler crabs and shrimp have been successful in getting them to bite. On the St. Pete side of the bay around Weedon Island some nice trout have been caught in the pot holes on live shrimp and jerk baits. The shipping channel is still holding some nice grouper for those that spend the time to troll the edges of the channel. Up around the Anclote power plant loads of lady fish have been providing some nice acrobatic fights on light tackle. Some bluefish showed up as well but the trout were not to be seen that day. A couple nice snook were caught and fought well. For those of you who happen to catch snook in the winter be sure you spend the extra time needed to fully revive these beautiful fish. Snook are under enough pressure during the winter to survive with out us catching an fighting them. So, extra care with the snook is a good angling practice and not targeting them at all during the winter is even better. We are in for a windy week coming up so fishing the power plants, canals, rivers and backcountry will be the place to go to find shelter and some good winter fishing.
That is all that I have for now, so until next time be safe, have fun, and catch some fish.
