i love Minnesota, but when it comes to a fisherman's dream, try Anna Maria Island, off coadt of Bradenton, Florida.
Shore fishing on Western shore for just about anything in the season, out my back door into Anna Maria Sound for redfish, black drum, flounder, snook, shark, sail fin cats, jacks, pompano, and mackerel. All assessable in my kayak or a walk to the beach.
jump on a charter, and the sky is the limit.
try it some time, you will not be disappointed
