Driving to Key West from Sanibel, need advice.

Besides, if you don't screw up, what will we have to ridicule you about.

So many choices.

I guess I'll have to get a couple nice Tarpon flies now.

I will bring the 10. Maybe time for a reel upgrade.

Looking forward to it.

I am planning on massive amounts of ridicule! By the way Warthog, check out the Allen reels, I have one and the quality to price ratio is fantastic.
Hope I won't be outgunned with a 9 weight. I am beyond stoked for this little outing.

Booking the Eden House if I don't here from my relative soon.
I'll let you know.

Perfect! I think I will be down for 2 nights, Sunday the 19th and Monday the20th, probably drive back to Fort Lauderdale Tuesday night to fly home Wednesday.
Edited to add, I can't believe this is less than 2 weeks away!

Cool- I am taking the ferry from Ft Myers, so I have to be at the docks at 5 anyway.

Be just as excited for the food. Trust me.

Geared up! Have a buddies 10 weight, feeling pretty good throwing into the wind up to about 70 feet....
Game on!

Shhh.... No wind

Confirmed hotel yesterday. Thank god- they had us down for one night. Got it fixed.

Hotel is 3 blocks from where the boat pulls in.

No more mention of the W.

Glad you confirmed, it would have sucked for us to both try and squeeze into my $6 a day sub compact.

It's been done before. 1st 3 times I went to KW, had no room.
Bars open till 4 am, sleep in the car until the roosters wake you up, and sleep it off on the beach.
This is going to be a huge upgrade.

[schwerty]

You FL guys outta organize a tarpon summit next year and give plenty of notice. I wanna go.

[stompinlines]

Id be in on that.

[warthog]

Not sure about Tarpon, but if you wanted to get a Tampa Bay mini going, I'd be all for it. We get Tarpon in June, but we have great flats fishing everywhere. Flights are cheaper, lodging is super cheap, and I have the boat(s), so no guide fee required. If we wanted a guide, I know a few that might be a good fit.

Let me know. I would love to show some more mags around.

[teleee]

I can vouch for awesomeness of Warthog and the Tampa fishing in general, not an opportunity t be missed.

Heh- and we didn't catch anything. Imagine how awesome it will be if we do.

[teleee]

When! When we catch something.

[warthog]

Hook is captain on this trip. I'm sure we will catch something.

[teleee]

Can't believe we will be throwing gargantuan flies at tarpon in less than a week!
