I had a King ski my butt all the way from the back of the boat to the bow. We've had some take us around the boat three times. That's the beauty of finding the right place in FL. You can fish for tarpon, reds, trout, kings, wahoo, mahi mahi, spanish, blues, snapper, grouper and all kinds of other things all from the same spot. It can be flats one day, the river the next, the bay the next and off shore the next.

I will say that the LSC option is a great one as well. Some place you can drive to in a day will help with the budget..
