Based on the water, scenery, I'd say mid coast or lower coast. Nice water and photos. Sure looks like fun, thanks for sharing.

Lower coast, weather was hot, SSE wind at 12-15, reds in shallow water. Hydros XL mounted on a Helios 2 rod, crab imitation. Lots of reds and drum cruising the line between the sand and the grass. We saw a giant, I mean giant trout way up in the shallow water hammering the small mullet. He snubbed my crab imitation and just cruised away. Nice to see the big trout up close, 28-30 incher!

Wishing I was fishing - THERE! Wherever THERE is ... Don't worry Tio. The sand behind the SPI Convention Center should be doing the same thing.
