oh ok, never really ventured that far north during my time in St. Pete. Since I got into bass fishing I always wondered about the spots I never tried back there.

Yes.

 

May I suggest investing in a "Spot" unit?

 

Good luck.

I am from louisiana and have fished an adventure fishing world championship down there the last two years..talk about trips of a lifetime... we did out trips in kayaks and ranged over 25 miles a day from backcountry to miles out in open water...in a boat I could only imagine how great it could be...cell phone coverage is at a minimum to none in areas... I documented my last trip in a 4 part series if ur interested in reading a lot of the donts...I did win the event so it was worth it in the long run, my buddies on the other hand would likely disagree..

There are a number of large pythons on those islands throughout the glades.  I'd be more worried about them then the gator or crocks.
