Coby: The Bombing Range is an area on the northeast end of PIne Island Sound starting near Mason Key and extending up to and past Joslyn Island. The range is a group of deep potholes that were created by bombing training during WWII. You should have any problem finding them since they are light tan patches and some are a few yards long and abour 4-7 ft. deep depending on the tide. They're a good place to hunt down some bigger trout, sheepies, flounder and snapper. There are ocassional reds in the these holes. Drop a shrimp with a smallish wieght and bottom it along the bottom, jigs dressed with Gulps and DOA's will also produce. Stay off the patches and drift a few yards away from the perimeter of the holes. You might want to stake out and work these areas slowly flipping to the edges and bouncing your offering slowly through the hole. Another exercise in dredging the deeps!

When you post to facebook, there is an option to change which photo is displayed. The way facebook works, it grabs any image from the webpage you are sharing. It's up to the user to find the image you want to display. I believe you should be able to find that logo. Good luck!

You guys got to go to Jax Bar and Grill right on the main drag in Isla where the statue is. They also have the best charter boat fishing for sails on the island booking out of there. Owned and operated by two Americans you can't go wrong. Great place, great food, great fishing, it just doesn't get any better than Jax!!

Thank you for keeping up with reports, you are striking it rich down there. Any chance of some more day 1 pictures of the sailfish on the bait balls from up on the bridge?

Comment on Florida’s Strange Creatures by Mike

My cousins and I were fishing off a sandbar in the intercostal in tequesta and we dropped a piece of bait into the water. Within 2 minutes 2 of those bristle worms had converged on it. I hope that they aren’t endangered because they freaked us out so much we killed both of them. I that if 2 of them found that bait so fast that there must be a lot of them.

Comment on Florida’s Number One Hunting Community by dzinn

One of the problems I have found on many web based hunting sites is they are focused on other states. Some address northern Florida, but there is very limited information south of Ocala. It would be great if FS would present hunting hotspots like they do fishing hotspots by region. It would also be great if FS would put together the private hunting preserves along with public land along with what game is actually taken. Thanks
