    SoWal Fly Fishing

    A daark green and white/silver streamer pattern titched slowly on (or just under) the surface after sunset or before sunup works well on specks....even in relatively deep water (i.e. 5 - 10 feet)..

    Wanted Looking to Rent a Skiff

    Hi folks, I would like to rent a skiff (aka bateau aka jon-boat) or something similar. I would probably want it only for one day. Will only use it in fresh water, probably in Black Creek or Choctawhatchee River. Probably sometime in March or April. Just want to do a little cane-pole fishing...

    Dune Lake Fishing

    Soft plastic jerkbaits twitched slowly at or near the surface used to work well for bass. I haven't tried in years, though, and don't know what it's like now.

    Where Can I Buy Really Good Steaks?

    Where Can I Buy Really Good Steaks?

    I'm looking for high-quality steaks. Doesn't necessarily have to be a butcher shop, but does need to be a step (or two) above the generic Publix fare. What I specifically want is a very large Porterhouse with a full-sized filet on one side of the bone and a full-sized sirloin on the other...

    Beachside villas questions

    BSV looks like a large apartment complex with open parking all over. Generally, plenty of parking (although it might be a little tight around the 4th of July). Right across a small, two-lane dead-end road from beach access. Very convenient. No issues I know of (am not an owner there--used to...

    Sailboat off west side of 331 bridge

    Folks need to stop trying to anchor in that part of the bay--for an extended period, anyway. Nothing but mud on the bottom. Remember that boat Hurricane Ivan set down right in the middle of 331 a few years back? Hull split wide open and all the clothes, gear, etc. scattered all over the road?

    Free workout equipment

    Check with the Fire Department. Not too long ago I donated some stuff to the one in Freeport. Those guys live in the station for days on end, plus the demands of the job require they be in good physical shape. They came to my house with a trailer and removed large machine and a bunch of...

    Quick question--- Dolphins in the dune lake????

    I'm not aware of it ever happening, but it certainly is possible. I've seen dolphin far upstream in Lagrange and Mallett Bayous (much closer to Freeport than to the Gulf) so frequently it's not even interesting anymore. They have little problem with brackish water. If, hypothetically, one...

    Is there anywhere near 30-A where I can get 1099 forms for tax year 2013? I know I can drive into Destin to the Office Max, but I was hoping to get some around here. On a related note, if anyone has 1099s they need done and don't feel like doing them yourselves, I can put them together for you...

    My wife does volunteer work at Alaqua. She says there is one there now that recently arrived at Alaqua. It is currently in quarantine (that's routine with new dogs), but since it has checked out fine, should be out of quarantine any day now. Even while it is in quarantine, you can still go up...
