    Thank you, Chucky, Tunavic and Sodapop. Of course, there was a lot of driving and sightseeing too, in addition to our low budget fishing, and it all worked out really well. Utah and Colorado are both great places to fish. Fish aren't hard to catch in Alabama, either.

    I used to write long reports, but then circumstances made it difficult for me to fish much for a few years, and this time, I decided to do it with pictures. :)

    It's an interesting vacation. If you go up to Orlando it's very similar to Orange County CA. lol The keys are very nice and the fishing around Key Largo in the tidal flats is definitely worth doing!!! (Key Largo is the first Key and Key West is the last Key) I told my buddy we couldn't go to Key West. It would be too much of a temptation to take one of the descendants of Ernest Hemingway 6 toed cat's home. lol We did fish out of the landing that is at the end of the Everglades National refuge. We caught a huge variety of fish, Red fish, Snook, you might even get a Tarpon, Sharks and plenty of Sea Trout (aka Brown trout that lives in sea water) and Sail Catfish. A Channel Catfish that evolved into a Salt Water Catfish with a huge Dorsal fin that looks like a Sail! Me and my Buddy Alan C&R over 120 fish on a 3/4 day trip with a guide. The Mosquito's are thick on land but when you get over the Ocean their not there.

    You might be a little old for South Beach but it's Spring Break there year round!! I did have the best meal of my life there, a fresh lobster tail with all the trimmings!!! Yum Yum!!!
