i have 2 questions about the area. first off, what kind of fishing is around this area? would i be flying kites or reef fishing? second, for those who have been/camped there during the projected time, what is the weather usually like? comfortable at night in a tent or hot?

Evan, plain and simple, pack your bags!!
Inshore and offshore will be good in April!!
Long Point is one great location on the East Coast..
It is centrally located for eveyone in the state.
Just like Ft. Desoto on the left coast!!
Lets set the date and Do-It!!
See ya there!

You could sell surplus shirts to ME. Temps are OK at night in my mini motel.

The beauty of Sebastian is inshore. The winds will dictate what we Ken Do. If anyone surfs, this is the break on our coast. Off shore, the Cobia are runnin` then and they don`t have the same reef pimp/shark dead head syndrome we have here where depths are much tighter.
Black Dog runs a bonita roped off the transom to shake the pigs away. Thanks for that lesson Bill. Offshore, it is spring and a tad early for the run, but hey, let`s get it. Love me some Cobia.

Run `n gun was proven to be quite effective as well. Mother ocean will allow us to make choices. Can we sign up now or is it 3 mos. out. Let us take all of the good spots in a contiguous manner as before.

Cheers,
Us

Count me in, we are looking forward to meeting you guys. I might have to hitch a ride with somebody if there is fishing though...I don't have a livewell...or rodholders lol

Just signed in for it.

Now, let's BOOK-IT!

Danny ... Have you contacted Long Point & can we get sites on the point like last time? or can they set-aside 10 contiguous spots ... and then we call in with our reservations?
Maybe you can post some details ... Ph#, cost/night, required deposit, accept credit card?

Ok Danny, take charge, and let's get it set ...
I'm ready to have a great time!

And for those who haven't been to a Florida gathering ... it's not all about fishing ... it's the comradory, seeing/meeting other CSC members, their boats, sharing stories and so much more ... oh yea, and the food ... YUM!
Hope to see you there!

Great post Carla.

Here is a link to their site:

There are plenty of sites on the water. We are focused on sites in the 70's and 80's for water depth. We will be mixed in with other campers. If I have intel about multiple continuous sites, I will post here. Dates are Fri 4/26 and Sat 4/27. There is a phone # on their web page. Let the booking begin!
