Re: Solo Keys Kayak Trip 3/23-24
I am going with Arik81 next week on his first trip to the keys. We are staying on ramrod key just south of big pine key and anyone down that way feel free to looks us up. Any suggestions on a good place to launch down there?

He chooses to throw a 1/4 oz jig head vs a lighter version on 10lbs braid n 20lbs leader. Says that he can cover more water with longer cast. I usually bounce...
