should be some good realstate to see along with the purty sand and water

No waves, said fishing in mangroves in the backwater or on the beach in mornings and evenings. Should be fun

Im goin for a tarpon. Bigger or little, I want a friggin tarpon. Wouldn't mind just wading the sand bars on the beaches... We'll be at the south side of Captiva.. I'll probably rent a Yak one day and go into the back water...

There is a ton of guides down there. We may go down July 16ish just nit sure yet. When u enter sanibel island go over the causeway n look to yer left there is a big pass you can wade out n get on a sand bar n smoke em. There are also a few lighted piers in captiva
