This (and better day boating) is why we picked the Gulf side.
Yes... I like inshore fishing so thankfully I live near several inlets (st.Lucie, Jupiter) where ther is great fishing.  My boat is just a 25 ft Bay boat, so it’s perfect for that.

I may have mentioned this awhile back, but I went Inshore fishing with my FiL when we were at Marco Island, and the guide had us help him catch his bait, which I found to be really cool, had never done that before, with the huge nets and all that.     Fishing is always up and down, but those Inshore trips are always fun for me, being so used to traditional northwoods freshwater lake fishing.

Yes, very hit or miss.

most of my adult life in Michigan, I would consider myself almost expert level for those inland lakes.  Didn’t matter if it was Michigan, Wisconsin, Canada. I could take a lake map and find walleye, musky, bass, or pike.   

Down here, you might as well put a bag over my head.... clueless.   So much to learn and the big thing is, it is all related to tides and currents.   So many species.  But, I am learning which is part of the fun.  Had my boat for a year now.

One cool thing here is, you can and often do hook into anything, including some monsterous creature when you don’t expect it!

My friends down there seem to have it dialed in, both near shore and in open water. I look forward to learning from them, and eating the grouper that we catch.

Fishing's not my thing, but I do like eating amberjack whilst in Florida.

If I recall, you like walleye for eating as much as I do.  Down here my favorite is Cobia! Needs nothing but maybe salt and Pepper.   Grilled 5 minutes per side.  I liken it the Filet Mignon of fish.

Cobia is great, and I do love walleye.


So many choices down there. There aren't many bad ones.

I've smoked a few great Cohibas

Here's a highlight reel of our tailgating from this past season. Yours truly got in there a few times, and Fearless may have snuck in.

Sadly, it may be our final season on the East River Flats. Still no word from the MPRB about the future.

nice work on the video!

I like walleye too!  Only ever had it in Minnesota, we either don't have it down here, or nobody likes to catch/cook it.  

But my buddy in Minneapolis had me over to his house a few times while I was working up there, and he'd grill it, or very lightly pan fry it.  So delicious!

Walleyes can commonly be found in areas of Iowa and Nebraska, but that's about as far south.

They have been introduced as far south as the northern Texas but don't do well there and I imagine numbers are few.

one of the best tasting fish in North America
