| "camp" on the beaches of Boca Raton, Florida during the mid to late 90's. We caught a variety of fish here,tarpon, barracudas, pompano, sharks, bonito, jack crevalle, permit and spanish mackerel . My favorite fishing was for tarpon right before,during, and just after summertime. On the good days we'd jump 2 to 4 tarpon, most shaking the hook on the second or third jump, tho many were landed in front of a crowd of excited spectators. Many a British tourist had never seen anything quite like it. Permit, Snook and sharks were also targets for us and we began to use live crabs exclusively for bait. We removed the claws to make them easier prey for the fish. The claws ended up in the sand, spread around camp and sure enough you would step on them. After cutting our feet up so many times, our area was deemed Camp Claw. Joggers in bare feet knew to steer well clear of our area. It's nothing serious, just a place to archive some fishing information and to share some experiences with family and friends. Thanks for taking the time to read a little about us. Please feel free to drop us a line or make any comments or suggestions--S.Baker 1999 |
