A unique website dedicated to fishing information from Florida's Northern Big Bend. This includes the area from the Econfina River west to the Apalachicola River
Yesterday I announced October 12th as our fishing date with the 26th as a backup. Today I found out that I can only reserve the pavilion at the Fort on October 26th, so that will be our fishing date. October 12th is out.
Hope to see as many of you there as possible. These children really depend on us and look forward to this as their top event to repeat every year!
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
It's time to plan for this year's Take a Kid Fishing! The water will be just right in October and we're looking at the 12th with a rain date of the 26th. What better way to share a perfect day than to go fishing with a child from the Fla. Baptist Children's Home. These kids are really looking forward to our annual Take a Kid Fishing. Date is Saturday, October 12, 2013, out of the Fort as usual in St. Marks. If you can make it or know some one who might be interested, please call 850 510 0828 or email me at doneengland@gmail.com. New extended fishing hours (by popular demand) are 8 to 1:30, back in by 1:30 pm for the cookout. This year we need enough boats for 20-26 children.
This year, we could also use some volunteers to help cook, serve, and clean-up.
If you ever wanted to make a kid happy and have unforgetable memories,this is a day you won't forget for a long time. Let's make it happen again this year captains!!!

Yes, please bring her. I always request to bring your kids and I will match up as best as posible ages and girls with girls, boys with boys.
It sometimes doesnt always match up , but most of the times.
Thanks Tommy at Capital City Trailors for supplying the grille and charcoal.
