I have cruised most of the South Pacific Islands, but love it here most. nice! must be cold as hell there though...how long is your season? |

I'm not in the bay near as much as I used to be, because golf, which I took up when I turned 60, has really cut into my fishing time. The grandkids like either the Potomac or Lake Anna.

It was a staging area for the ill fated Cuban Bay of Pigs invasion among other things. It is now a very posh residents club and resort. Directly west of Useppa, several hundred yards across the Gulf Coast ICW is Cabbage Key. Cabbage Key has some guest cottages and a small restaurant/pub which is a very popular boating destination hereabouts. |

But, I'm getting older'n hell. I think the Union sympathizers who staged from Useppa were much more successful than the Bay of Pigs guys. |

If you like looking at lots of estuary wildlife in one of the few unspoiled estuaries in the country, Estero bay is a pretty cool place. That is why I moved here Don't know if you've ever heard of Useppa Island, which is down south of you. That island played a role in the series of books I'm about to finish. The series is historical fiction, but the role played by the island, a home for union sympathizers during the Civil War, was factual. The series is the 'Honor' series by Robert N. Macomber. A fun read. http://www.robertmacomber.com/Books.html Useppa is actually north of me but I am familiar with it. Cabbage Key is up there too, great place for lunch and a walk around. There are a few other "boat only" islands in that area and one that also has a little airport for the filthy rich. (upper Captiva) That is up near Boca Grande pass where you see a lot of those tarpon fishing shows. They fish the drift in rows of boats that do a dance, alternating from the front to the back of the pack as they drift out of the pass. As long as everyone follows the rules it is pretty orderly. I have been in that zoo a couple if times on my Pine Island friend's boat. Now I understand. When you mentioned Estero Bay, I thought that's where you were located. This old age is a bitch! |
