On Sunday Aug 14th, the TBRC will be having a beach/collection trip at Ft. DeSoto. We will have tables reserved at Arrowhead. This is a great way to spend a stress free Sunday afternoon especially since school will have started for most of us. We'll start cooking the hot dogs around 11am and will have the grill available for anyone who wants to bring anything else to grill. We're also going to cook some Lionfish for everyone. We will also need an RSVP from folks who want to attend(just to make sure we have enough food) by Wed. Aug. 10th. RSVP to me here via PM or even on this thread is fine. This event has been requested by many members so we hope to see many of you there. Remember you do not need to be a paid member to attend, everyone is welcome.
The club will be providing hot dogs, sodas, water and juice boxes. We would ask that you bring something to share with everyone too. Just like a regular meeting.
Please be aware that there is a $5 admission fee, per carload, for Ft. DeSoto.
There are limits as to what and how many snails, inverts, etc that can actually be kept and you must have a saltwater fishing license. Info below:
Florida Recreational Saltwater License
If you are at least 16 years old but under the age of 65 and want to fish in Floridas bodies of saltwater, you must have your recreational saltwater fishing license to legally fish. Saltwater fishing licenses in Florida are valid for either one year, which costs $17, five years, which, costs $79 or for life, which costs between $401.50 and $1,001.50 depending on your age. If you are a nonresident, you can purchase a three-day Florida deep sea fishing license for $17, a seven-day license for $30, or a yearlong license for $47.
Purchasing a Florida Saltwater Fishing License
You can purchase a Florida saltwater fishing license at your county tax collectors office, a sporting goods store or bait and tackle store, online or by phone at 888-FISH-FLORIDA. Note, you will not receive your FL deep sea fishing license for 30 days, but you will be given a temporary license number (TAN). Keep a copy of your TAN if you plan to fish before you receive your license in the mail. Please click here if you are interested in a lifetime fishing license. Remember that even though you have your Florida saltwater fishing license, there are still restrictions you must comply with. You should know what kind of bait and equipment you are allowed to use, as well as any species you are not permitted to catch.
