1333.0. "FORT MEYERS FLORIDA" by WMOIS::M_MESSIER () Mon Feb 19 1990 12:44

    
    FORT MEYERS INFO. I will be going to ft. meyers area in the begining 
    of march and would like info on any good areas that will either rent 
    boats or a reasonable guide service. I will probably only get 1 or 2 
    days of fishing in and im not really interested in shiner fishing. IS
     this the time of year that bass spawn in florida???? Also how much 
    are licenses for 1 or 3 days. I will be spending most of the time on
    PINE ISLAND. any info will be appreciated.
    
    thanks in advance, mark

    	I spent some time fishing just south of Ft. Meyers, last summer.
      If you go south apx 1/2 hr to Marco Island the marina has good prices
      on rentals for the day or half day. There is some charter boats but 
      that can cost $$$$. We rented a 20ft cntr. cons. w/90hp. for 8 hours
      that cost about 100.00 including gas. BUT you have to stay in the 
      innercostal waters. (still good fishing) also If you do go to the
      Island on the same road as the Marco River Marina is Snooks Inn, they
      have the best steamers I have had so far. While the wife and I were 
      there we had 20 doz. (no$hit) Good Stuff !! by the way that was over
      a ten day stay. Have fun, stay off the bottom , lots of big cat's,
      fun to catch but they have nasty stingers.
