Fort Myers Florida Backwaters Feb 16 2009

#1 Post by nige »

Booked a 4hr trip with http://www.goodtimecharter.com caught a lot of sheepshead. Nothing else came aboard which was a pitty but couldnt blame the captain as he really tried alot of different spots. Bait was live shrimp and using light tackle all the fish gave a nice fight. Even my girlfriend caught a few fish even if she didnt bait up or cast or take the fish off the hook:) A few dolphins decided to come by the boat as well. here is a few pics -
