I think it is usually out of the Fort.

Usually St. Marks Fort ramp and return there for pix and cookout and all the kids running from boat to boat and bragging about who caught what and whose is the biggest and who got the most and the big one that got away,etc.etc.etc.
It's also great if you have kids or grandkids and bring them on that day too. Then these kids you are hosting have an opportunity to see what a real family looks like.

I could take some out kayak fishing. I might be able to get some more people to join us and we could put them on some Trout or Redfish at Wakulla Beach or Bottoms Road. Let me know if its something ya'll might want to do.

I think the one out of mashes is the FWC's "Kids Fishing Clinic". But I believe they may both be on the same day.
