With the recent arrival of fall cold fronts comes prime time for fishing and camping in the Everglades backcountry. The December 2006 issue of Florida Sportsman magazine, now on newsstands, covers everything you need to know to safely get your skiff to a secluded campsite, and to put a few fish in the box. See "Islands in the Glades," by longtime FS contributors Max Branyon and Jody Moore. For an updated list of campsites, click here. Be sure to contact the park to obtain a backcountry camping permit, $10 per permit, plus $2 per person per night. For a glimpse of the area, see these exclusive on-line photos from Jody Moore.
