cold snap kills fish

Kinda what I figured, Paul - I've done the same thing following a long cold spell...

Hope you sent your clubs down too

I was thinking, don't know if you've ever made the trip over to Useppa Island - it would be a great day trip for you and the missus and friends. It was built as a tarpon camp (some camp!) by Collier for the same crowd that was in the great striped bass clubs in SE NE in the late 1800's and the bar and dining room is decorated with great photos, vintage tackle and signed tarpon scales with dates, weights and angler - pretty neat

You take a small ferry over from South Seas Plantation on Captiva and it's a nice day trip when the bite is off due to weather

My wife and I went over to Useppa for lunch at the Collier Inn with my cousin from Cape Coral and it was pretty nice - a few cocktails with fresh grouper for lunch, a walk around the island before the ferry came back - no cars, just carts like Cutty - great way to spend an afternoon

Thanks Chuck. Played 36 holes so far.

Fishing Monday on a charter with Capt Brant from Salt Water Cowboys. We will see what happens.

South Seas Plantation and I have a relationship that goes back to the mid-70s. Can't tell you what was being shipped in and out back then.
