Englewood is on the gulf side of the state over an hour south of Tampa. Ed Walker, who I dive quite often with and is perhaps the best Tarpon fishing guide in the state, invited me on what he promised would be an "epic" trip, he was not mistaken. He did not schedule any customers for this past Tuesday, which coincided with season opener of Red Snapper.
I'll let Ed's story from another forum describe the day as he put it fairly succinctly and made me laugh as well. Story, pictures and video to follow...
