We can go to either coast when it's safe to do so. The Keys? Been there. Done that. Got the tee shirt. I went fishing in the Keys one time about ten years or so ago. Never understood the attraction. Never been there, but it looks pretty in pictures. Seems a good place for finding scenic fishing spots close in. You can enjoy that with a drink even when the fish aren't hitting. Once you're out of sight of land, water looks pretty much the same. If you are skunked, you start to think, "Why am I here?" --Vic There are places in the Keys where there are reefs a couple hundred yards offshore in the Atlantic, and fairly calm seas much of the time, and you can catch all kinds of typically way offshore fish without the danger of being out of sight of land or the expense of a big, open ocean boat. I stayed here once about 12 years ago: www.rainbowbend.com after a conference in the miami area. The resort was pretty nice. The rooms were adequate, the restaurant first class, the beach was lovely, and we had free use of a small boston whaler with an outboard. We caught snapper, grouper, spanish mackeral and I forgot what else, right in front of the hotel, and the restaurant's chef did a wonderful job each night cooking up our catch. Thanks for that. You may have changed my vacation plans. --Vic |
