Welcome to Florida Texan

Congrats on being at the best hospital in the nation. Go GATORS.

As far as beach fishing you have found one of the best areas in Fla.

If you ever want a Free lesson on fishing our beaches give me a shout. You won't need a Corn Field cast, Nor a fancy newest bling rod and reel to catch fish in our neck of the woods. 

So are you a Aggie or Longhorn? I have been here since '63 but spent alot of summers on the farm in S. Texas and Padre Island before the Condo's arrived.

Well now.....Shands @ UF

With a stiff breeze behind me, I can stand in my funeral parlor's parking lot..... and using my "fancy newest bling rod and reel".......pitch a Hi-Flight sinker right through your office window. They did give you an office with a window- didn't they ?

MY friends..... hang out in the bowels of that dump. Where they do things unrelated to actually healing the people. Them things. I am not allowed to discuss them things, on here, because they say it scares the normals. But hey the cafeteria ain't too bad. They serve a mean ghoulash with lots of meat and extra sauce and stuff. I see my friends from the anatomical board wheeling covered carts down that way all the time. If you see them, say HI and hit-up the Wendy's instead.

The springs are nearby you. 45 minutes max. Google-up  "Ginnie Springs". It is one of the finest around. There you can snorkle and drink cold beer at the same time. Most all the other springs are for the alcohol-free crowds with the little children. I just handled a funeral at Ginnie a few weeks ago. Wes Skiles- scuba adventurist. He dived the caves and mapped the aquifer all the way, cage dived with sharks, made movies, etc, etc. Big party. At the conclusion, we lit a boat on fire and shoved it out into the flow of the spring head and shot off fireworks, and of course.....everybody drank beer. He wished for something a little less than traditional you see. Always happy to do my part. I skipped the bar-b-que, because the flies out there will carry you away. Check it out- you will love the place. I have tried to visit as many of the springs as I can. Two thirds of the experience is underwater, without a snorkle, mask and fins, you might as well sit on the picnic table as even get wet. Going to do Wakulla, world's largest spring, this weekend. They rent rooms in the lodge the DuPont family had built. I suspect when I leave the lodge, to go eat at Marie's Steakhouse in Tallahassee Saturday night, my woman won't let me wear my Tim Tebow really is Superman shirt, cause they don't really like him up there. He beat them Crminoles four years in a row you know.

There are a couple more folks that hang out on this site, and live/work in Gainesville- Home of the three time National Champion Fightin' Gators. Best football team there ever was. We call it Title Town and Againesville. Nice place actually, alot cleaner than Tallahasseee. If you have any conservative views about anything related to politics- keep your mouth shut. These folks drink the pink Kool-Aid by the gallon during their communal drum dance festivals. Everyone drinks., and then they sing song old Vietnam War protest ballads.......and I am not allowed to discuss politics or football or Jesus on here either. 'Ever Again' was the term I believe they used, although I don't know why. Anthony's daughter is a freshman @ UF this year- Go Gators. You are a Gators fan- aren't you ? If not....man are you gonna hate Gainesville- just hate it.

So let's review here- you posted up a request for basic advice as to which rig to use for mullet fishing.....and you get four offers to go surf fishing for real. Not too shabby. I wouldn't mind fishing with old Catfish myself. Don't let Jeffy trick you into carrying his cooler like he did me all those years. When your finacee' gets to hankering to go beachside, post up her intentions, and we aught to have somebody going fishing that day. Really shortens the learning curve, kind like skipping whole semesters and stuff. Never know, we might get you to go to the beach....just to go fishing. Girls can do it too, you know.

Anyways.....Good luck with your most worthy commitment, and try to sneak in some sleep, and say HI to Dr. Eloise Harmon for me. Nice lady, just follow her instructions please, and never mess with Dr Donneley down in pathology. He is a biter. Made me acknowledge that the morgue is his sandbox. Just a tad uptight about them toe tags, bodies in and bodies out type stuff. I refrain from flippancy when I see the staff putting their heads down....for he doth commeth.
