I am around... I live on Cape Coral now which is right up the road. I don't know where you have been fishing, but the further I get from Sanibel (mouth of Caloosahathie River) the cleaner the water and the better the fishing has been. I have some rare days off this week and will be up towards Charlotte Harbor the next few days.

I'd love to hear some reports if you are willing to share. I'll be at Captiva with the family next week. Also would like to know about good food if you don't mind.

Dhall, any follow up info from your trip? We just got into Captiva yesterday and my wife is calling around for fun family activities. Looking at going over to Cayo Costa for the day tomorrow. Saw a guy catch a tarpon at the first bridge to Sanibel on the way in. Pretty cool to see from the bridge.

Just left Sanibel. Apparently in SW Florida, South Carolina residents are quickly gaining a reputation like we have in Arkansas. A guide at the tackle store on two occasions in the last 3 weeks took out some South Carolina "sportsman" who preceded the next day to sit in spot. Even worse one of the groups thought it okay to take there center console and run of and off the flat tearing the grass all up no more than 100 yards from the said guide.

Shit... don't let the locals blame it on tourist. The worst offenders for tearing up our grass flats are the "tournament" type guys with there tunnel hulled tower boats. They don't think twice about running full throttle in less than a foot with or without people like me poling the flat nearby. You think bass fisherman are bad, they have nothing on the pro Redfish guys

We had a blast there, and I was in several tackle shops. Those guys could not have been nicer, and I told them where I was from. Watched several charter boats tear up the snook. Saw one guy catch a nice tarpon, and saw several free jumping. Certainly plan to go back. We stayed on Captiva.
