West coast! Buffin` party?... I can imagine our crew paying the troll under the bridge. Credit Ron White.

Wouldn`t you rather live where we have 84 degree water now?

Folks North are at 62 deg. Brrr.

If you concentrate a big honkin` led light on a lobstah, they are putty in your net.

Try this. They can not see squat. They are blinded by the light.

My log book is lacking, but my thirst is not yet quenched.

Breakers Reef? Peanut Island in the Spring? Other ideas?

i would be in when the weather is cooler for some boat/beach campin!

Yea, That sounds good. peanut island is a circus, but the location is excellent.

Long Point Park at Sebastian Inlet by far is the best central East Coast place
to have a gathering!!
Volusia County (Daytona Area) has squat!
With that, it does not matter to me or the boss!
There is the motels on the mainland side of Sebastian.
That's where Steve (lost2a6) stayed...
So we have primative and civilized accomodations for everyone!

Lets Do-It....

Peanut Island, been there done that was good enough for me...

Not sure what has changed with the booze ban. I`ll ask the rangers.

We had a 2 tank dive off the Breakers Sunday. The site is 7 windows. We dove 2 and 3.
60 ft. World class diving folks. Not quite sure why this gets no press. Master Wayne said he has been to Cayman, Turks, and Fiji. He and his wife think our reefs blow all of those away. My fiji water is bottled.

Did get an invite to work a hoo tourney in Cayman, but the Christmas winds had their way. Got a Bone to turn on a fly. I`m not a fly guy, but it was fun trying.

Cheers,
NSF

I looked up our legendary 1st Long Point Trip. We booked for April in November. So I bet we could get March if we got started in Oct! Peanut Island is too crazy, but Munion would be cool to not be backed up till March. We have a few islands next to Ft. Desoto that would be no reservations. We could use their facilities, but camp next door! Any other East coast spot without reservations??

[gofastsandman]

Here we are fighting about where we will have the next gathering.

Do they have phones up North?

The new Munion facility is sweet. Just our style. Seconds to fishing too...or a dock.

Sandy I found a fact sheet on Munyon stating there is no camping!
