2 Questions?

Post by famu40 »

Does anyone know if you can legally tent camp on Dog island? They other question is that i have been trying to find this jig head that i used trolling for trout and reds while kayaking with a friend. The jig head has a flat / diamond shaped head w/ a colored skirt. If you know the name or the web site i can find them it would be greatly appreciated.

You have to get a canoeing permit. It is only allowed as a part of the canoe trail excursion.
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!

The only Dog Island that I see as part of the canoe trail "that allows camping" is located close to Boca grand in S. Fl. :smt012
I would think that the Nature Conservancy would be the ones to ask "since it owns most of the Island :beer:

I've camped at the west end of dog island with no issues twice... Seen others at the east end multiple times... I think you'd have to be doing something pretty stupid to have any trouble. Stay off the dunes, keep your camp clean and you'll be fine. It's a great place!

I found the jig after a long stint of research. They are called tsunami flats jig. Thank you all for your advice!
