Thanks for posting the link :) My friend was telling me about the spoonbills, I would like to catch one of those bad boys. I'm heading out there in a couple of weeks to visit my sister and possibly wet a line with my friend.

Perhaps when some of you pros (builders and maybe even designers!) come down for the meet, you can stop in and give me a quick check up on my progress and offer tips, advice, etc. Who knows, I may make enough progress to have it flipped onto a trailer and sturdy enough to drag up the road to come show it off by then!

I dont have any plans yet, just depends who we have coming with us. So long as the weather permits, I plan to do the full moon trip at least the night of the 3rd. maybe next two nights if the bite is on. 3 nights of snapper limits will go a long way to filling the cooler :)

Wish I could, but we won't be there until the 7th. Got 10 days to work on filling the freezer after that :D Last year we brought home a 50 quart cooler packed with clean fillets. I've been thinking about buying a small chest freezer and putting it in the back of the truck with a power inverter.

Glad I'm not the only overly excited person about this trip. I have amassed a bunch of bass pro shops cards, and I am planning on taking a stop on the drive down from Miami. I'll probably grab a good rod/reel combo and some other tid bits. If anyone needs anything I can probably grab it.

I'm getting more and more exited everyday about this trip 8) If you stop at bass pro take the one in Ft. Lauderdale it's a nice big store, great restaurant and there's also a quite interesting fishing museum on the site.

Great tip Richard (Aripeka Angler) emailed me so I thought I share, this shop has about the same setup and size as Lauderdale, and is I think even more on our way as the Lauderdale one,Thanks Richard, I for sure will make a stop overthere
