    Use caution. when cruising the Gulf side ICW north of the seven mile bridge. the lobster traps are thick in the ICW and many have over 20' of floating line before the ball

    A must stop on Florida's left coast. Grab lunch, cheese burger in paradise of course
    chase a turtle. It's good cardio after siting on the trawler all day. You may see Randy Wayne White " Doc Ford".

    the marina is a dive, but the Country Grill restaurant was incredibly good . I wish they had their own dock
