We have 90 degrees winter down here in The fishing capital of the world (Florida). Anyways, good luck on your decision on which ever state you chose.

In Florida, with Family, plenty to Do, plenty!

Fishing? Florida, fresh, salt, brackish , intercostal waterways,@ Jax. More water than you can fish in a lifetime.

Enjoy you're trip!

How about the Roland Martin Resort and Marina on Lake Okeechobee?  Check out the website! I have not been to that particular joint, but in February South Florida is about the only place on the east coast that will probably have sunny 75 degree weather. And the bass fishing on the Big O is awesome! The resort has hotel rooms, a restaurant, bass fishing guides, and they supposedly rent tricked out bass boats for $250/day. Boat and guide is around $400. They have some cheaper boats, too. There is nothing else to do in Clewiston FL besides fishing, eating very basic food,  drinking beer, and, maybe, wild pig shooting. But you are only an hour or so from great inshore and offshore salty fishing on both the Atlantic and the Gulf coasts. And you're two hours from Mickey Mouse heading north, or Miami Beach heading south, and three to six hours from the Florida keys. You can supplement your bass fishing with redfish, speckled trout, tarpon, snook, pompano, permit, bonefish, and all kinds of offshore stuff (think dolfin, sailfish, wahoo, snapper, kingfish, sharks, etc, etc). And great beaches both coasts.
