We recently found ourselves with a lot of questions that only a “boots on the ground” visit could answer. The recent red tide event has left us with a driving desire to find clear water and good fishing in our saltwater estuaries. Well, we not only found the answers to many of our questions, we also dug up some information that may be of interest to you.

You might recall the launch at 19th Street in Boca Grande was redone as a riprap dock for loading equipment onto barges for the cleanup effort after Hurricane Ian. For several months, it has been unusable for kayakers who have any concern for their hulls.


   

Kimball and Les Beery, authors of the waterproof “Angler’s Guide to Shore Fishing Southwest Florida” and “Angler’s Guide to Kayak Fishing Southwest Florida,” contribute these columns to promote the excellent fishing available in Southwest Florida. Their books are available at most tackle shops in the area, AnglerPocketGuides.com, or Amazon as a download or hard copy.
