At some point this Fall or Winter, the thermometer outside your window will be hovering around zero. Snow more than a foot deep will need to be shoveled out of the driveway, the car battery will die, and the power will be flicking off and on for three days.
So what?
It’ll be 74 degrees in Nokomis! The sun will be a yellow ball against an azure sky and you’ll be standing on the bow of Capt. Tony Petrella’s flats skiff waiting for the next school of hungry bonito to show up.
Fish like this nine-pounder that ripped the entire fly line off Tom’s reel in fifteen seconds, and took nearly a half-hour to land…

It’s already been one heckuva day, though.
Missing breakfast was really worth getting out pre-dawn to nail several nice snook like George’s…

…and the redfish in Dona Bay were big, strong, and plentiful…

…and maybe tomorrow it’ll be baby tarpon like the one John caught…

Plenty of time to decide on tomorrow’s plan later this evening while admiring the sunset with a cold beverage and warm companion at A Beach Retreat.
Three nights lodging and two days of guided flats fishing for only $1,100.
