Boat trip

seaplusnights · 10-11-2009, 11:33 AM

Just bought a new fishing boat and will be traveling from Ft Myers FL to Galveston Texas, any comments or recomendations from those that may have done this trip before? Looking for the best fishing holes!

Lots of good places to fish on the way. Run up to Clearwater and take fuel. First stop would be the middle grounds for some good ole grouper and snapper. Don't worry about exact spots, you will easily find your own. Stay out there for a day or so then head on to Panama City, FL. Good late season white marlin and wahoo up there. Then bounce some rigs on the way to Louisiana and take fuel around Venice somewhere. Spend a few days fishing out of Venice because everyone should fish there at least once in their life.
