Why not rent a Kayak or canoe at a local state park? They are cheap to rent and you will triple your catch ratio! Try taking a short drive to Oscar Scherer State Park. You can fish fresh OR saltwater and it's a nice scenic "paddle" too. Plus, this is a "no-motor" zone waterway! For more info call park at 941-483-5956. Another NICE "wade-able" area- Philippi Estate Park in Safety Harbor FL. Cast "topwaters" until you get a strike and then "slow down" and fancast Jig/Mud-minnow or a "popping cork/live shrimp". Ken Thompson Park can be good fishing either EARLY (like 5-9 am) or late in the day(7-9 pm). I would also hit Bay Island Park on Siesta Dr. I wonder if Jiggs Landing is still around? There's a good freshwater destination. If your RICH go to Tidy Island. (lol) Hope this helps ya? Good luck!<br><b>References : </b><br>'Ole FLA swampboy from way back. Don’t have a boat?
