Default Boating Plans for 2006

I am going to MN this summer for a week. Other than that it will be the
usual. Central IN fishing. I might go to Lake Barkley this summer for a
couple of days. Then to Lake Monroe (home of John Mellencamp). With probably
one short trip to Michigan City by the pier and or Trail Creek when the
Skamania run starts.

What, if anything are y'all planning to do this year? Anything new?
anything different?

For us, it will be a lot of the same inshore fishing the Pine Island,
Matlacha with the exception being hopefully catching our targeted quarry
more often. Will venture out some, weather permitting to the Gulf for some
offshore bottom fishing and probably get back to diving a bit more
regularily. Then we have the summer trips to the keys for lobster and some
offshore blue water trolling.

Come late spring / early summer we are looking to get a few more tarpon
memories and my neighbor wants to try for tarpon by kayak in the
Caloosahatchee. I may just bring my video camera and let him go first. Has
anyone fished for and landed a tarpon fishing from a kayak?

I expect quite a wild ride and come to think of it, the area we 'found' is
maybe about two miles from home. It does pay to go fishing with people who
know better than you thought you did. I guess you can always learn
something new.
