A few cigars, and a quick escape from life for some short fishing trips.

This is from a park called West lake it is the back side, and I get in by jumping across a large river. I have been doing this spot for years, and have even been there at night. It is a strange fishing spot more peace then anything, and more getting away from people issues for me.

These trips were tops 2 hours each one....quick hit & run:

Here are some shots: Started the day with a Rocky Patel Sun Grown, and later did a Grand Cubano. Rocky Patel was great nice and strong, but the Grand Cubano was not good at all.

Some thing took half of my soft bait!

Another back country quick trip:

Lake Fishing:This lake is fresh water, but connects to the ocean:

The long skinny fish are Barracuda. The photo I took was not that great it was a pretty nice size. She was longer then my arm. Also I had never had a Cuda jump out of the water like a Tarpon.

Information:

The barracuda is a ray-finned fish known for its large size (up to 6 ft in length and up to a foot in width, for some species)[2] and fearsome appearance. Its body is long, fairly compressed, and covered with small, smooth scales. It is a salt water fish, and is found in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide.

The Darker fish is a fresh water Bass.

I was there in the above locations after Snook......they are very hard to come by you have to stock them, and hunt them. We are in the process of building a huge salt water fish hatchery....to process over 10 to 12 billion fish to be release back into the wild. If we do not do this we are looking at a fish less future. Please keep in mind that over 10 million is spent by fisher in FLA over an hour each day.
