The Before or The after

What does everyone prefer the two days before a hurricane or the three days after a hurricane? I have had the best luck after the hurricane.

I remember a couple years back during Hurricane Charlie I was fishing Charlie breachway with some buddies and we took keeper after keeper. The sea was angry that day my friends, like an old man trying to return soup @ a deli.

Bottles and bucktails, or heavy needles

It's variable. I've seen it light up right before the storm with things shutting off after it rolls through as the fish push south. Other times, the storm stirred things up and got things going.

Let's keep our fingers crossed for the latter.
