    Anyone in Southwest Florida? I'm about to move back after 8 years of being away. I'm in the Coast Guard. I miss Fort Myers. I'm actually extremely surprised that they're sending me back.

    Nice dude. How long have you lived down there? Do much fresh or salt fishing? I fished a couple fresh ponds but didn't really know of any hot spots. I never really looked for any wheeling spots down there either. Theres a shooting range that's pretty sick north of the Cape that I remember.

    There are a couple spots to wheel down here but nothing good. Lazy Springs in Lehigh has a decent rock garden.

    The Florida tacoma Club is actually pretty active. I go up to ocala area alot to wheel with those guys. We doing the second annual Georgia take over next month where we wheel the north Georgia mou tains

    I am also in Cape Coral. Been living here for a little over a year. If you guys get out to Lazy Springs, send out a message. I have been meaning to make the drive out there to check it out.

    Thanks man. I kinda figured there wasn't a ton going on down there. I'm super stoked to be going back.

    This place looks legit. Ive been to their range. Looking forward to going back.
