Wherever the standard of freedom and Independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will her heart, her benedictions and her prayers be.

But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy.

She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all.

She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.

Sweet Pics, where the Tarpon was caught was where I fished last year this time.  I am sure that you will fish by bathtub beach.  When you are down there and am looking for a place to wade fish that is the place.  When the current is coming in our out just throw your fly in and work it as if you were on the river.  You can wade fish the beach and it does not look as if there will be any surf so you do not have to worry about waves.  Once you park at bathtub it is a .5 mile walk down to the inlet, go right when facing the water.  You can fish by the rocks, or follow the beach around to the lights.  Anywhere is good as long as there is water moving.  I am sure that you all will hit Jenson when you are down there it is a 15 or twenty minute boat ride.

Also, at night or in the evening you can walk the beach and look for nervous bait.  It will be a little harder to see because of a breeze, but I am sure that you will be able to see the fish busting the surface.  It look nothing like a trout rising to a midge, more like a fish doing gymnastics
