John, where in the gulf? I'm near Crystal River.

Dan, I was in Pensacola in the navy. I had a boat at the navy pier, and
fished for blues, kings, and cobia. But I spent most of my fishing time
surf fishing for reds, pompano, and sharks.

Then a young gentleman joined the squadron, he was from the area, and he
talked me into going bass fishing with him on the Blackwater
River......I was "hooked"!
