    Kribbs

    I just have to tell you my first trip to Florida was successful beyond anything I could have imagined. The fishing was completely off the charts. My arm hurt for 3 or 4 days after getting home from catching so many fish. My wife and I both thought it was an absolutely beautiful state and the Everglades are beyond awesome. With that said I could never live in Florida as there are just too darn many people, but it sure is a fun place to visit and I hope to do it again and again!

    One happy couple. Celebrated out 36th anniversary while in Florida.

    Wow! That’s awesome! One thing to note, in Florida, the farther South you go, the heavier the population gets. Also, the farther South you go, the “bluer” it gets and that goes hand in hand with the number of transplanted Yankees moving away from the cold. I’m glad the fishing was good while you were here! Looks like you nailed it on your guide search. Wish I could have helped, but it’s pretty much out of my wheelhouse. I don’t really fish, I just drown worms!

    Ha! I knew as soon as I proofread that post that somebody was going to comment on that. I know I sure would have if someone else had posted that.

    Congrats, you’re an official Good Hunting smart ass!

    QA is one point today. We went to Hollywood Beach and only lasted about 20 minutes. It wasn't anything like Hawaii where it looks like every other person could be a model for the cover of a swimwear magazine. Instead it looked more like a manatee swimsuit convention. I will say this however, the Weston area is some of the prettiest landscaping and neighborhoods/businesses I've ever seen despite some hefty individuals wondering around.
