    Sorry, We won't be down there untill the opening of the lobster season in the summer.

    There are a slew of good guides in the Islamaroda area. I know its more expensive but they'll put you on this fiish.

    Yeah I am on a couple of split charters just wanted to see if anyone wanted to get in. I am going to end up getting a charter though either way just wanted to save money.

    Ask around the hotel/condo/campground you are staying at. I've usually been able to find someone who didn't want to pay the entire fee, either.

    Good luck. You'll be down there at a good time of year. No that there is a bad time of year to fo to the Keys.

    Yeah there could be a better time but I am not complaining. We had a total of about 20 feet of snow this year...... dont forget.... But I have been looking around a bit around where I will be staying. I have to get there and try to figure some stuff out.
