i have stayed on little gasparilla island many times, love to watch those mercury test motors run the speed boats all over the bays, love to fish north captiva island also
Have you fished down there lately??? I was hoping to catch a kingfish but i guess i will have to go later in the year for that. I can't get enough of saltwater fishing, maybe considering looking for a job in florida or geogia when I graduate, just don't know if i can give up what I have and know here in Michigan.

Hey Trophyhntr - we stayed on Little Gasparilla, too. Right across from the marina in Placida. I'd say about 1/2 mile north of Bird Key. The fishing from the dock was great. Snook, trout, jacks, sheepshead, snapper, small grouper, spadefish, ladyfish, catfish, whiting, etc.....We had a golf car with no brakes and crashed it a few times trying to make 3-point turns in the little paths that went to the beach. Went offshore once and bottom fished for big grouper once. Caught a bunch of big grunts.
yeah we had a golf cart to, carried our boat last year got on some nice reds, at night sat on dock with a few drinks and dipped shrimp out from under the snook lights for hours, ate good
I will be heading down to SW. FL. to fish for Snook & Reds next month, I spend most of my time fishing the waters around Sanibel- Captiva and around my house in Estero Bay. Cant Wait!! Pike
