Nope, not yet. It's not a bad tow though, 3 hrs to tampa bay!!! I was there hiding out from a hurricane 2 years ago. Been on biz a couple of times, but no time to fish.

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

You been to that Fort Meyers area what ya think of it

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

Real nice area, bigger than Sebastian. It's neat seeing sunsets on the water instead of sunrises! Would have considered that side for sure! Just get away from Tampa/Clearwater area - way way to busy! From Ft Myers is a close shop to fishing the glades

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

would that be what is considered tops Franco fishin the Glades areas

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

Because My buddy that has the condo down there says either they built or they are building, I forget, a ferry that takes him to Key West in a half hour. From Fort Meyers :o one of those high speed jobs

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

Key West to Ft Meyers in 1/2 hour :o...that ain't a ferry, that's a TIME MACHINE!!... ;D...

Lakes down here are Lake Murray (850 miles of shore-line, close to Columbia, SC), Lake Hartwell (1,000 miles of shore-line, close to Anderson, SC) and really secluded Lake Clark Hill (1,200 miles of shore-line closest big town, Augusta, GA)...lakes plenty big...lots of fishin' holes... 8)...

Come on down, I'll give ya the tour, bed and breakfast!!... ;)...

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

The glades would be pretty wild to fish I think, a real wilderness. I thought they launched rockets ffrom Caneveral, not Ft Myers

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

I think it is a high speed hydro foil, supposed to be up and running for a couple of years now.
Hey Oz I was checking out those lakes on the maps, they are some big puppies huh! Are they shallow classic bass fishing type lakes or are they deep water hold everything type lakes.One of my buddies fished a lake in Georgia he said was huge but it was shallow and warm water only fishery, packed solid with bass boys on low slung rocket boats flying all over.

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
 

Willy their depths are what make these great striper fisheries...close to 200' in some places...lotta cool water for 'em to retreat to in hot summer, plus LOTTA bait... ;) ;D...

Still worried about the Ft Meyers to Key West in 30 mins... ??? ::)..somebody pullin' leg down there ;)...

Re: Gov. Home Auctions Look
