mullet-wrapper" T-shirt and a certificate for Minnie's Beach Cafe, and her photo will go into the pool of six
winners eligible for a grand prize that includes $100 from The Islander, a dining certificate from Ooh La La!
Bistro, a bottle of champagne from Anna Maria Island Liquor and Wine, dinner for two at a Chiles Group Res-
taurant and framing of the winning photo by Decor and More. For contest information, see page 4.

CART head supports TDC tax position


By Rick Catlin
Islander Reporter
Don Schroder of the Citizens Against Runaway
Taxation organization said he fully supports an initia-
tive by the Tourism Development Council to draft leg-
islation that would change the appraisal methods used
by the state's property appraisers.
"We want to be cohesive and work with them,"
said Schroder. "I think the TDC initiative is great and
we're both working toward the same goal of saving
our mom-and-pop motels. I certainly hope we can be
involved in their process."
At its June 19 meeting, the TDC voted to ask Mana-
tee County legal staff to draft a proposal for presentation
at its August session. TDC member Sandy Haas-Mar-
tens said the TDC wants to present the proposed legisla-
tion to state Rep. Bill Galvano and the entire Manatee
legislative delegation when it meets in October.


"We need to get it to them before the legislature
meets next January. I really believe they will be behind
this," Haas-Martens said.
And the problem is not limited to Manatee
County.
She said 40 of Florida's 67 counties. are experienc-
ing the same taxation and property appraisal problems
as Manatee County. It's a problem that the state needs
to address quickly, she indicated.
CART is currently working with Manatee
County commissioners to draft an ordinance that
would allow the county to defer tax payments
above a certain level in areas designated as "work-
ing waterways." Those areas would include Anna
Maria Island.
At issue is the methodology usedby Florida
property appraisers in determining assessed value of

Mayors spar over

paid parking, security

at Island beaches
By Rick Catlin
Islander Reporter
Bradenton Beach Mayor John Chappie and Holmes
Beach Mayor Carol Whitmore were like a brother-sister
act at the Coalition of Barrier Island Officials meeting
June 21.
The two engaged in a "respectful" verbal exchange
over paid parking at Island beaches run by Manatee
County. Chappie said his police department wants the
county to look at paid parking for Coquina Beach as
a means of security control, while Whitmore said the
Holmes Beach City Commission is adamantly opposed
to paid parking, particularly at the Manatee County
Beach.
"This is a very serious issue" for Bradenton Beach,
said Chappie. "You can't compare our city with Mana-
tee Beach or Bayfront Park."
The issues for Chappie concern security and safety
at Coquina Beach, Cortez Beach and Leffis Key.
On any given weekend, there are more people in
Coquina Beach than live in Bradenton Beach. People
are "cruising" the beach just for something to do
because it's "free," he noted.
Unpermitted parties, gang gatherings and, in some
cases, fights, have occurred at Coquina Beach. There
is so much traffic it creates a safety problem on State
Road 789. Large groups and families can bring their
barbecue units and beach equipment and camp out on
Coquina Beach all day. And there is no pattern to park-
ing. People can just park anywhere they find an empty
space.
"It's gotten out of hand," said Chappie. "We want
a safe place for people to enjoy."
Whitmore suggested the Island cities work with
Manatee County to find acceptable solutions, but paid
parking does not appear to be one of those, according
to Manatee County Commissioner Jane von Hahmann.
There's no consensus among commissioners for paid
parking at any of the county-run beaches on Anna Maria
Island, she said.
Chappie indicated that his city would deal with its
issues at Coquina Beach, one way or the other.
"But we're all in this together," shot back Whit-
more.
Maybe, but Bradenton Beach has a unique set of

Beaches subject of attention

problems, fired back Chappie.
Whitmore said these problems go back to the ever-
increasing population in Manatee County, particularly
in the eastern section. "Sooner or later, everyone comes
to the Island."
For Holmes Beach, the main issue is parking at
Manatee Public Beach. When the lot is full which
Whitmore said seems to happen every weekend these
days people will park anywhere, including the state
right of way along Manatee Avenue.
Holmes Beach police officers have been reluctant
to ticket these offenders, Whitmore said, but von Hah-
mann suggested that a few tickets might cure the prob-
lem.
"We're close to doing that," Whitmore responded.
"We've never had a parking problem until this year. We
want to try and educate the public first."
Von Hahmann said the county commission will
hold a special meeting with Island elected officials to
discuss these issues and seek solutions, but no date has
yet been set for that meeting.

Consolidation, again, too
In other business, the BIEO discussed the consoli-
dation issue, which has been around Anna Maria Island
since 1950, perhaps even earlier.
Whitmore said the Holmes Beach City Commis-
sion wants another Island city to "take the lead" in any
consolidation of services study. After four prior failed
attempts by Holmes Beach to consolidate Island ser-
vices, it's time for another city to step up to the plate.
Anna Maria Commissioner John Quam said his city
is now in favor of studying consolidation of services,
but would like each city to pay its proportionate share
of any study cost.
"Then show us your proposal and I'll take it to the
commission," responded Whitmore, but Holmes Beach
Commissioner David Zaccagnino said the commission
consensus is for Anna Maria to do the study, then bring
it to Holmes Beach.
Holmes Beach Commissioner Rich Bohnenberger
added, "I'm from Missouri. 'Show me.'"


Beachwalker treasure? NOT!
Just one beachwalker, Islander photographer Edna Tiemann, walking from 23rd Street North in Bradenton
Beach to the Manatee Public Beach, collected this trove of trash in one morning. And she does it almost every
morning with the same volume of results, as dp many beach/environmental-conscious folks. The beach trash is
mostly toxic to marine life, and hazardous to everyone and everything else. It's expected to be worse after the
July 4 holiday, so, please, everyone do your part and pick up beach litter! The Islander

properties.
Appraising property at the "highest and best use"
usually means a mom-and-pop motel is compared to
a similar condominium for value. While that means
good news for tax coffers, it often spells doom for small
motel owners on Anna Maria Island, who have seen.
their taxes increase an average of 84 percent the past-


three years.
The result of rising appraisals and accompanying
higher taxes has been that more and more mom-and-
pop motels are converting to condominiums because.
owners can no longer afford the taxes. CART was
formed two years ago in an effort to stem the loss of
small businesses on the Island.
The Florida Legislature plans to create a committee
during its 2007 session to study all aspects of property
appraisal and taxation in Florida.

Cortez agrees on sharing woods cleanup


By Jim Hanson
Islander Correspondent
With the two women most immediately affected
agreeing in principle but disagreeing in application,
Cortez is moving to clean up an offensive and poten-
tially dangerous patch of woods.
Karen Bell, owner of the Star Seafood Market &
Restaurant, was victimized one night last week by an
intruder who kicked in a door panel and took $700 from
a safe.
Linda Molto, longtime Cortez activist, was told by
a neighbor that he had seen an intruder in her unat-
tended house, a man who had been in similar trouble
there in the past.
Both women felt the incidents probably could
be traced to a wooded tangle on Cortez Road nearby,
known as a haven of the homeless and drug users. Both
want the woods cleaned up so police can see what's
going on in that private property and forcing the inhab-
itants to move on.
Where they disagreed was whether the historic
village's prime action organization, Florida Institute
for Saltwater Heritage, should help finance such a
cleanup.
The problem was aired Thursday night at a FISH
meeting at the schoolhouse. There, Mary Ann Norman-
Ellis told the meeting that she and other villagers were
"worried about the safety of our children and the bad
impression" made by the woods because of the home-
less and suspected druggies there. She wanted FISH to
join other financial donors wanting to clean it up.
Bell earlier had agreed that cleaning up the area
was probably necessary, although noting Cortez "has
always had a tolerance for aberrant people," just as the
village is traditionally tolerant of what residents choose
to keep in their yards fishing gear, etc.


- ~'U -.-4S.,.

to villagers as a haven of the homeless and drug users. Islander Photo: Paul Roat


Molto agreed, especially after her suspected
intruder was arrested by Manatee County Sheriff's
Office deputies, but said FISH was not organized to
undertake such projects but was committed to "preser-
vation of our commercial fishing heritage."
In the end, FISH voted almost unanimously to con-
tribute to the cause,.with Bell voting with the majority


and Molto casting the lone dissenting vote.
-The $250 approved for the cleanup was just half
what the property's owner, Ham Jones of the Seafood
Shack, had pitched in, FISH members noted. But they
viewed it as an indication of strong community support
for clearing out undesirables. The total cleanup cost was
estimated at $6,000 to $9,000.

GSR principal, wife hit with lawsuit


By Rick Catlin
Islander Reporter
The legal woes of GSR Development LLC piin-
cipal Robert Byrne of Holmes Beach continue to
mount.
He and estranged wife Arlene were hit with a
$50,000 civil complaint for "unjust enrichment" last
week by Melvin and Carol Yudofsk\ of Key Royale,
Holmes Beach.
The Yudofskys allege that on Feb. 2, 2001, they
loaned $50,000 to New Roads LLC, a company owned
and/or controlled by the Byrnes.
The money was never repaid, the suit claims, and
the loan was not put on the books of New Roads LLC
as a liability.
"The defendants have been benefited or enriched
unjustly" to the detriment of the Yudofskys, the suit
alleges, and asks for return of the $50,000 plus inter-
est.
According to available online records, New Roads
LLC was formed on July 3, 2000, with Byrne as its
principal agent. The company was voluntarily dissolved
on Jan. 22, 2004.
In addition to the suit against Byrne and his wife,
GSR was slapped with a mortgage foreclosure action
on June 23 by M&I Marshall & Ilsley Bank and Gold
Bank. Named as defendants are GSR and principals
Robert Byrne and Steve Noriega along with Phyllis
and Frederich Fechner, among other defendants.
The total amount of lawsuits and liens filed against
GSR, Steve Noriega and/or Byrne now exceeds $12 mil-
lion, exclusive of an as yet unspecified amount in a legal
action filed by Ed Furfey of New Jersey. Twelve law-
suits, legal actions and liens have been filed against GSR/
Byrne/Noriega since March 1, and more are expected.


Stung by a rash of lawsuits the past four
months, GSR and principals Robert Byrne and
Steve Noriega have fired back.
On, June 21, GSR, Byrne and Noriega filed
a lawsuit against Jonathan Dittman of Baytown,
Texas, claiming a loan Dittman gave the company
had an "unlawful rate of interest" as defined by


Florida statutes.
Byrne and Noriega asked for an award of
$274,000, which is "double the interest paid plus
interest on the usurious interest paid, attorney's fees
and the costs of this action."
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of Byrne and
Noriega by attorney William Terry of Tampa.


Barford to seek commission seat


Former Temple Terrace mayor and currentAnna Maria
planning and zoning board chairperson Fran Barford has an-
nounced her candidacy for a seat on the city commission.

Holmes Beach proclaims
July 4 Jim Taylor Day
The City of Holmes Beach has issued a proclama-
*tion declaring that July 4 will be "Jim Taylor Day."
Taylor, a Holmes Beach resident who died earlier
this year at age 50, was in charge of the annual fire-
works displays on Anna Maria Island hosted by the
Chiles Group of restaurants that took place to celebrate
the New Year and July 4 holidays.
Taylor was a dock builder by trade, operating Taylor-
Made Marine Construction, but it was his Taylor-Made
Pyrotechnic Entertainment that brought him joy and so
.many others the great enjoyment of fireworks.
Anna Maria and Bradenton Beach are also expected
this week to name July 4 as "Jim Taylor Day."


She is a former city council
member in Temple Terrace and
served as mayor of that city for
six years.
Barford is also a member of
the Anna Maria Island C ommu-
nity Center board of directors
and a member of the Anna Maria
Island Historical Society.
Barford "I feel I have had valuable ex-
perience in local government that would contribute to
the well being of the citizens of Anna Maria," Barford
said in explaining her decision.
"I love this community and would like the opportu-
nity to serve its citizens," she added, notingthat preser-
vation of the "unique character" of Anna Maria would
be a major objective for her as a commissioner.
Barford has been an Anna Maria property owner
since 1987 and she and husband George moved to Anna
Maria permanently in 2004.

35 cents to a dollar?
Given enough time, everything comes around
again.
Consolidation of services among the three cities of
Anna Maria Island is a good example. It was broached
even before the first city incorporated on the Island,
and is guaranteed to come up again and again as it
should, as the political climate evolves.
Congestion at the beaches is another example of
the rolling cycle of currentevents. More than 40 years
ago, boisterous beachgoers were a concern, especially
at Coquina Beach, which then was a long, sandy, bare
stretch of shore except for wild kids, beer drinkers
and occasionally lots of trouble.
The solution then was to break up the long strip
of surfside parking to curb the cruising of cars up and
down the beach and prohibit alcohol.
But always lurking has been the concept of charg-
ing to go to the beach. A few dollars cover charge on a
carload, the reasoning has been, and maybe fewer cars
will come.
OK, here it comes yes, charging for parking at
the beach should be brought to the table again. It's time
for another discussion of the matter.
But that should only be one of a slew of elements
that Island leaders, county officials, business owners
and others should discuss.
Coquina is the biggest beachfront park in Manatee
County, drawing the largest number of visitors and the
current focus of concern. It's currently divided into five
segments, six if you count the Leffis Key area.
What about having a land-use planner take a pencil
to the layout of roads, parking and amenities currently
present to come up with a better plan?
Couldn't something be designed to provide better
traffic flow and improve public safety?
There are pavilions, concessions, boat ramps, rest
rooms, fishing areas and all sorts of amenities that are
slapped onto areas that could perhaps be better orga-
nized and, as a result, better managed.
Also worth bringing to the table is reintroduction of
bridge tolls. It may be time to think again about tolls on
the bridges to Anna Maria Island, something that his-
torically was a fact of life for all. It may provide a better
solution than parking fees at the public beaches and the
funds could support Island infrastructure needs.
The point: Beach congestion is nearing a break-
'ing point. And we can't stop folks from going to the
beach.
And we are rightfully proud of our wide, sandy
shores. Why not make them more user friendly?
Let's put our heads together and take this cycle on
the full course for solutions.
Maybe we're ready to pay the toll.

SAM the bulldog
Wind insurance, high taxes, auxiliary roads, traffic
congestion, Grassy Point, comprehensive plans, build-
ing explosion.
These are only a few of the topics members of SAM
(Save Anna Maria Inc.) have been asked to take on.
Note I said "take on," not just talk about.
SAM has had a reputation as being a bulldog with
what they take on. What we need, though,.are some
young pups to work with us.
Dues help, but workers are desired. I have been
told every: problem has:a solution. So join us and help
solve the problems that besiege the Island.
Please join us Saturday, July 1, 10:30 a.m., at the
Island Branch Library in Holmes Beach.

Great Fathers Day event
SThanks to the tremendous time and,effort of Steve
Bark and his entire team at Bark Co. Realty Inc., the secorid
annual Anna Maria Island Community Center fishing tour-
nament turned out to be another great Father's Day event
benefiting the Center's youth sports programs.
A heartfelt thank you also to all the individuals and
businesses who volunteered and opened their wallets to
support the children and teens that participate in the youth
sports programs.
It was especially wonderful that this event included a chil-
dren's competition, and congratulations to all the participants and
winners.Itis by yourbeliefinandsupportoftheAnnaMarialsland
Community Center that makes our motto a reality '"Commu-
nity Success Through Participation and Involvement"
Events like theCenter Father's Day fishing tournament
have been an important source of funding to ensure that youth
sports and recreational equipment is available and in safe con-
dition. It enables the Center to keep measuring and improving
the quality and content of our youth sports program while
keeping program costs affordable and insuring that no child
is ever turned away due to a parent's inability to pay.
By your belief in and support of the Anna Maria Island


Community Center, our goal to continue our successful
youth programs and adding new programs is achievable.
Dear Steve, sponsors, volunteers, donors and partici-
pants -.on behalf of allthe children andteens that benefit
from your support and partnership, we thank you again.

Bullish on Anna Maria
For those pessimists among us, I would like to point
out a number of reasons why owning and living on
Anna Maria Island two years from now may just be the
deal of a lifetime.
Weather, weather, weather. The lasfthree months
were just a mere sample of what we enjoy virtually
year 'round. Hurricanes ard red tide, hopefully, will be
ancient history (I've lived on the Island 15 years and
have evacuated a grand total of one day, for Charley).
Tidemark. When finished, this unique resort will attract
the attention of boaters and sportspeople worldwide.
St. Joe. Their new development in Palma Sola will
also promote the Island to many people willing to spend
over $700,000 for a Florida lifestyle.
Tax-relief Proposed-changes-to-the-property tax.
structure will encourage small businesses to remain and
expand.
Baby boomers. Which sane ones want to retire in
Pittsburgh or Milwaukee?
Education. Our new elementary school is one of
the most modern in the country.
Grandparents. There is no finer location for grand-
parents seeking an idyllic beach location for their family
gatherings while being only one or two hours removed
from the greatest array of amusement centers in the
world.
Yes, house sales and prices are down and taxes and
insurance rates are up. Things look bleak at the moment,
but two years from now there probably won't be a house
available on Longboat Key for under a million dollars
- and that will make us look awfully inviting.
I'm bullish, how about you?

The Islander, headlines announced:
Manatee County environmental projects coordina-
tor Jack Gorzeman dismissed reports that funding for the
next Island beach renourishment project is in jeopardy,
saying the 2000 renourishment project is "on track."
That project will include a portion of Anna Maria, which
had opted out of the 1992-93 project, he said.
Holmes Beach City Commission Chairman Luke
Courtney has threatened to sue the unnamed authors of
a newsletter that criticizes himself, other commission-
ers and Mayor Bob VanWagoner and claims he acted
illegally. He called on the authors to come "out from
under the rocks" so he can proceed with a libel suit.
The Bradenton Beach City Commission agreed to
move the city into the computer age of law enforcement
by putting money for a police computer system tied to
state and national computers into the 1996-97 budget.
The computers would be placed in police vehicles and
linked to a central computer at the police station.

Anna Maria City denies Olesen 5.foot claim


By Rick Catlin
Islander Reporter
Anna Maria city attorney Jim Dye has again
rejected a claim by the Olesen family of 504 S. Bay
Blvd. that the city vacated a 5-foot-wide path of beach
walkway to the family years ago.
"I do not believe the question of whether the city
vacated five feet of the beach walkway has been con-


vincingly answered," hewrote to Craig Colburn, the
Olesen's attorney, on June. 20,
The Olesens had been constructing an addition
to their house on the property earlier this year when
work was halted by building official Kevin Donohue
because of concern the Olesens were encroaching onto
city property.
The Olesens countered that their family had used

But Dye responded that "tlere has been no evi-
dence presented or uncovered that there has been any
intent of the city to abandon that right of way."
He indicated the letters produced by the Olesens "at
best indicate a mistaken impression on the part of the
city staff at that time that the city previously vacated
its interest in the five feet. The letters do not show an
act of the city commission in 1982, or earlier, to vacate
the walkway."

County calls for beach bash special meeting


By Rick Catlin
Islander Reporter
Manatee County commissioners plan to hold a
special meeting to discuss beach issues, particularly
security and parking at public beaches, after hearing
concerns raised by Bradenton Beach Mayor John Chap-
pie and Holmes Beach Mayor Carol Whitmore at the
commission's June 20 meeting.
County Commission Chairman Joe McClash said
no date has yet been set for the special session.
While Whitmore and Chappie in particular were
concerned about safety and parking at the county's
public beaches on the Island, one issue that got a deaf
ear from the county was paid parking. It's an issue
that's been discussed several times in the past, said
McClash, and the current commission isn't interested
in the idea.
But the commission is concerned about roving
gangs, especially at Coquina Beach, lack of permit-
ting for some beach activities and overcrowded parking
lots.
Whitmore said that as the county's population con-
tinues to rise, the pressure on the Island facilities will
also climb.
"Sooner or later, everyone who moves to east Man-
atee County will find their way to the Island. This past
year, I've seen the busiest weekends I'ie ever seen and

McClash indicated that elected and law enforce-

immediately, but we will at least recognize what the
problems are and start from there," he said.

Rotary recaps AME
In the absence of guest speaker Lynne McDonough,
Anna Maria Elementary School media specialist, Island
Rotarian Jim Dunne gave an impromptu report on the
status of the club's partnership with the school.
The Anna Maria Island Rotary Club is extending
a helping hand in supporting the school's literacy ini-
tiative. The most recent program is the Rotary Reader
Patch Club, which was introduced to students in late
March 2006.
Dunne said the idea for a reading program in which
students earned patches for reading books within spe-
cific genres began when AME teachers McDonough
and Karen Newhall received a grant to purchase posters
for the new media center aimed at getting kids excited
about reading.

safety at Coquina Beach have been building for some
time, but culminated when he learned recently that
some local musicians and rap artists had planned a
major beach party at Coquina Beach for area youths
on June 9 and had even distributed flyers advertising
the event.
Law enforcement officials met with organizers and
persuaded them to cancel the event, which had not been
permitted by the county.

literacy partnership
At the time, Dunne said McDonough wrote a letter
to the club regarding a "Hats off to Reading" program
in which kids earn patches to sew onto a hat, and the
idea evolved into sashes for the Island kid's patches.
Students read a set number of books from one genre
in order to earn a patch, similar to a Girl or Boy Scout
patch, to sew onto their sash. Kindergarten and first-
grade students earn patches with the help of an adult
reader. In the six weeks of school before summer vaca-
tion, Dunne reports that 300 AME students read 2,900
bi5,ooRs.
Students received a "book passport" in order to
log their summer reading and earn book patches when
school resumes in August, said Dunne.
Dunne said one of the International Rotary Club's
initiatives for the coming year is to promote literacy,
and he has received inquiries from other clubs about
starting a similar programs.
Dunne said several Island Rotary members also
serve as reading tutors and in the fall the club will spon-
sor a writing contest for AME fourth-graders. The con-
test is named in memory of the late Gene Moss, who
was a Rotary member and teacher. Students will learn
about the Rotary Club's philosophy and be asked to
write an essay based on one of its four principles. The
winning essays will be kept in a binder in the school's
lobby the first essay in the book by Elizabeth Moss
is about her husband.
Dunne concluded by urging the club to consider
how it might help fill the AME library with enough
books to meet the needs of its students, and to consider
volunteering as a tutor.
"The club should be proud of the foundation it has
given the children on the Island," said Dunne.
McDonnough will be invited to speak at a future
club meeting and give a more detailed report about the
reading program.

Manage Psylla
PopulationsTo Slow
Spread of Citrus
Greening Disease
Citrus Greening Disease (CGD) is here to stay.A systemic
disease that can kill an infected tree in three to five years,
CGD is proving to be much more difficult to control than
canker. Symptoms often don't show up in infected trees for
up to three years. By then, it's too late.
Management of CGD depends on controlling the
insect that spreads the disease the Asian citrus psyllid.
An Integrated Pest Management program, including both
biological and chemical controls to keep all nursery and young
trees psyllid-fiee, is the most effective means for controlling
the pest and limiting the disease's devastation.
It is also important to protect the mature trees, especially
during the spring and early summer flushes.
Groves should be scouted regularly, and those where psylla
are present should be treated. For quick, economical
management of infestations, depend on Lorsban-4E
insecticide as part of the treatment rotation.
Foliar-applied at a rate of 5 pts./A, Loisban helps keep
psylla populations under control and provides broad-spectrum
protection against other pests found in groves, induding citrus
rust mite, scale, mealybugs, aphids,
whiteflies and fire ants. Beneficial insects
are also important to psyllid control,
and the quick knockdown action of
Lorsban allows for fast recolonization
of beneficial populations.
For more information on
recommended psyllid treatment schedules
for management of CGD, contact your
local county ExtensiQn.office. For
additional information about Lorsban*-4E
insecticide, see your local ag retailer.

Privateers award

$11,000 scholarships
The Anna Maria Island Privateers have awarded
$11,000 in college scholarships for 2006, with the top
Whitey Horton scholarship going again to Erica Hog-
gatt.
She is a nursing student at Manatee Community
College who plans to transfer in the fall to the Univer-
sity of Florida. The $3,000 scholarship is given in the
name of the late Whitey Horton, a longtime member of
the Island civic service group. Hoggatt, of Bradenton,
is a repeal winner, having received last year's Horton
scholarship as well.
Two other scholarships were given in the names of
longtime Privateers leaders, the late Dick "Red Dog"
Cline and Greg "Shiprek" Davidson. Those schol-
arships, for $1,500 each, go to Kimberly Kuizon of
Holmes Beach, who is studying communications at
MCC, and Austin Eason of Bradenton, law student
at Florida State University. Kuizon also received the
scholarship last year.
The first-year award Bridgit Miller Memorial
Scholarship went to Brittany Brooks of Bradenton, who
is studying fashion design at the Fashion Institute of
Technology.
Elise Mundy of Anna Maria, student at USF, was
awarded the $500 Sandpiper scholarship again this year
to continue her courses in physical therapy.
Deanna and Brian Stephenson, daughter and son
of Holmes Beach Police Lt. Dale Stephenson, both
repeated their last year's Privateer scholarships of
$1,000 each. Both are students at USF, she in psychol-
ogy and he in marketing.
Nikki Donate of Bradenton was awarded a $500

Ambrose attracts butterflies,
mayor, art to park
Artist Woody Candish created this steel butterfly
obelisk for Barbara and Michael Cohen of Sarasota,
who in turn gave it back to him, and he offered it to
Holmes Beach Mayor Carol Whitmore, who imme-
diately thought of placing it in the butterfly park
adjacent to city hall that Nancy Ambrose conceived,
organized and manages. Whitmore consulted with -
The Islander, where Nancy is the account executive,
and the plot was fashioned to install the piece at
the garden and surprise Ambrose on her birthday,
Wednesday, June 21. Ambrose was duly surprised
and all that enjoy the garden will now have the
Candish artwork to enjoy along with the fluttering
butterflies and the plants that attract and host them.

Marina's, 4.78 acres, to become a three-building, 272-
boat dry storage facility plus 22 wet slips.
It represents a major redesign from the original
proposal, Aristoile Shinas of the county planning staff
told the commissioners at the hearing last week. The
first proposal was for storage for 330 boats in buildings
villagers, planners and commissioners found too mas-
sive.
Commissioners expressed appreciation of the
reduction in scale by the developer. It met and cor-
rected all of the staff criticisms and made the complex
more in keeping with the village's one-story aspect,
said Shinas:
Maximum height for the three buildings will be
49.feet, and extensive landscaping will minimize the
impact of the large buildings. he noted. Boat rentals,
including personal Iatercraft, are ipecificall3 excluded
and hours of operation will be limited to meet earlier
concerns of residents.
"It will be in line with the Cortez guidelines," he
said. "It will keep the Cortez atmosphere even though it
is not in the village itself." The village, on the south side
of Cortez Road, is a designated historic district with a
design and zoning overlay exempting it from many of
the county's construction requirements and preserving
it from aggressive development.
Jane von Hahmann, Cortez. resident and county
commissioner, noted that nobody appeared in opposi-
tion at the hearing. BBC will add to the appearance
of the property "which has been in some disarray,"
she said. "It meets the letter of the county's building
code."
The project now faces the long, complex route
through the county's departments and regulatory agen-
cies.
Still to come are consideration of two other major
projects along the north side of Cortez Road, the Holi-
day Cove RV Park and Hunter's Hill, both proposed
for residential development.
The Hunter's Hill proposal has shown no activity
in recent months, but the Holiday Cove proposal was
made in an early presentation to the county and received
a reception decidedly less warm than that accorded Bra-
denton Boat Club. It was to be discussed Monday night
at a public meeting in Cortez, but information on the
matter was not available at presstime.

Deep-water grouper season over


By Jim Hanson
Islander Correspondent
Deep-water grouper commercial fishing is over for
2006, closed as of-Tuesday, June 27, in federal and state
waters..
It affects a number of boats fishing out of Cortez,
said Karen Bell of the A.P. Bell Fish Co., which buys
much of the commercial fish harvest in this area.
It is a significant jolt to the commercial fishing
industry but not unexpected the same thing hap-
pened a year ago, but Bell said hopes had been for the
quota not to have been filled quite so soon in 2006.
"About 80,000 to 100,000 pounds of the deep-
water grouper are landed here in the average year,"
she said.
Lee Schlesinger of the Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission said the National Marine


Fisheries Service determined that the annual harvest
quota of 1.02 million pounds of the fish had been
reached by Tuesday.
"Federal regulations require NMFS to close the
commercial deep-water grouper harvest in Gulf federal
waters when the annual commercial quota is reached,"
he said. "The Florida FWC rules also prohibit com-
mercial harvest of these species in state waters when
adjacent federal waters are closed."
The shutdown prohibits harvest from. now through
the rest of the year of misty grouper, snowy grouper, yel-
lowedge grouper, Warsaw grouper and speckled hind.
"Canadians will be most upset by this," said Bell.
"They really like yellowedge, and buy all of it they can
get. It's a really nice fish."
Commercial grouper fishing in federal waters for
those species will reopen at 12:01 a.m. Jan. 1, 2007.

First Coquina Beach outdoor fest a success


By Billy Malfese
Islander Reporter
Coquina Beach was host site to the first annual
Florida Gulf Coast Sports Commission Outdoor Fes-
tival June 24 with some 2,000 folks in attendance
throughout the day.
One of the event's coordinators, Jef Germain, did
not expect there to be such a great turnout since the
event was the first of its kind here.
Throughout the day, anyone could take out one of
60 kayaks to try for free, attend clinics ranging from
kayak fishing to paddling techniques, take a guided
water tour by Leffis Key or just relax and enjoy the
great food and shopping available from the numerous
vendors.
The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary was present in full
force as well, as the public boat launching ramp on
the bayside was closed and the "no wake zone" was
extended for the day due to the mass amounts of kayak-
ers and canoes.
There were numerous seminars going on through-
out the day, including information on basic kayaking
techniques, secret camping spots on the Manatee River
and how to pack your kayak and use it for fishing.
A main event for the day was the Paddle for Par-
adise, where kayakers were asked to paddle into the
water all at once for a photo opportunity. The prime
purpose though, according to Germain was, "To raise
awareness of the need for safe, improved access points
and facilities for paddle sports throughout Florida."
Also at the festival were food vendors with every-
thing from smoked mullet to shaved ice, kayaks for sale
and two up for raffle, along with exhibits from Mote
Marine Aquarium, the South Florida Museum and the
Anna Maria Island Turtle Watch.

ton Area Convention and Visitors Bureau hosted this
family-oriented event.
The county sponsored a radio commercial which
was aired from Jacksonville all the way down to Miami
to advertise the event.


Germain said, "We wanted to have something to
attract all different kinds of people, especially fami-
lies." The goal is also to have it occur yearly, in June,
and for it to become an event that the locals and tourists
can look forward to every year.


Numerous seminars and clinics ranging from how to
pack a kayak to how to fish from it were offered dur-
ing the event. The staff from Kayak Explorers, among
other businesses, helped explain basic techniques of
paddling to eventgoers.

Summer, B-ball, crabs ... joy of sports


By Kevin Cassidy
Islander Reporter
The Anna Maria Island Young Professionals
(AMIYP) recently sent two Holmes Beach youngsters
to the Central Sarasota Hitting Clinic sponsored by the
Tampa Bay Devil Rays.
Adam and Joel Hart, who both played last season for
Morgan Stanley teams in the Anna Maria Island Little
League, learned a great deal about hitting in the two-
day intensive hitting camp. Barry Jones, senior group
account executive for the Devil Rays, got Adam and Joel
into the Devil Ray camp at no cost to their parents.
According to Will Bouziane, president of the
AMIYP, it was a project of the AMIYP philanthropic
committee, which is dedicated to assisting Island youth
in their development.

NASCRAB update
The June 14 story on NASCRAB referenced Ellen
Benjamin as the "Richard Petty" of the sport. Does that
make Ellen's husband Ross the Danika Patrick of the
circuit? Ross Benjamin won his first NASCRAB title
June 22 after just 181 attempts.
Ross joked while modeling his "coveted NASCRAB
T-shirt, "This is the first $181 T-shirt I've ever owned."
Congratulations, Ross!
A would-be sports writer now takes on the dis-
tinction of the longest streak without a victory in
NASCRAB.

Horseshoe news
Two teams emerged from pool play with 3-0 records
in the June 17 horseshoe competition at the Anna Maria
City Hall pits. Herb Ditzel and Ron Pepka rolled past
Mitch Soffer and George McKay by a 22-12 score to
walk off with the duck-shaped trophy.
Wednesday, June 21, saw only seven participants,
but the competition was close with no team managing
an undefeated record. Pepka and Soffer defeated Jimmy
Spencer and John Johnson 21-11.
Play gets under way at 9 a.m. every Wednesday and
Saturday at the Anna Maria City Hall pits. Warmups
'begin at 8:45 a.m. followed by random team selection.
There is no charge to play and everyone is, welcome.

Island youth 'driven'

to basketball success

'The main goal of the camp is
to get the kids to realize that
if they put in the effort, they
can accomplish anything....
Andy Jonatzke,
Center sports director

By Billy Malfese
Islander Reporter
Young players are honing their skills at the Anna
Maria Island Community Center's second annual
summer basketball camp titled "Driven."
The advanced version of the basketball camp
focuses on some techniques that players may have not
learned during regular season play and gives them the
conditioning they need to be better players.
This two-week camp focuses on an array of drills
helping to improve defense, offense, sportsmanship,
independent thinking, ball handling and shooting,
all the while teaching the player to have fun with.the
game.
With close to 20 players attending daily, the campers
get intense coaching on the more advanced tactics and
strategies of basketball. "Driven" camp runs Monday
through Friday from noon to 2 p.m. and is organized
by the Center's sports director, Andy Jonatzke.
Jonatzke said, "The main goal of the camp is to get


the kids to realize that -if they put in the effort, they can
accomplish anything. We want them to have fun, but
also learn a lot along the way."
The motto for the camp is to "be driven and com-
mitted" to become a better basketball player, not only
in the physical aspects of basketball, like shooting and
playing defense, but by encouragement to have a good
attitude, display sportsmanship and to think indepen-
dently and make good decisions on and off the court.
On top of learning the basics and new skills, the
players are split into teams to compete in scrimmages
every day. Conditioning and the importance of warming

up and stretching are also stressed.
Another popular part of the camp is the "hot-shot"
competition at the end of each day, when each player
has one minute to score as many points as they can by
making baskets from various locations on the court that
are marked with varying point values.
At the end of the camp, awards will be given out
for the overall winner of the "hot-shot" competition,
best defensive player, best sportsmanship and the most
improved player.

Calling all World War II veterans


For the past four years, The Islander has run a
story on alternate weeks about the war-time expe-
riences of World War II veterans who live in our

Sadly, the number of veterans of the "Greatest
Generation" available for the column are gradually
dwindling. Their numbers will not increase.
After four years of calling every WWII veteran
I could uncover, I'm appealing to those veterans
whose story has not yet been written, and any
member of the public who knows such a veteran,
to please call me.

their story.
Readers of the "Greatest Generation" columns
will understand that the stories do not glorify
individuals or war, recount daring deeds, or give
accounts of the great battles of WWII. These are
simply the stories of ordinary people in extraor-

Regrettably, a number of WWII veterans have
indicated they have no interest in telling their
story, and that's understandable. But if you don't
tell your story now, who will be around in a few

Choice photography
JoAnn Mancuso recently started Your
Choice Portraits, which provides on-
site photography services and special-
ity photos. Islander Photo: Rick Ciatlin

Your choice
for portraits
JoAnn Mancuso spent a number of
years working at the Holmes Beach/Bra-
denton Beach post office, so she's well
acquainted with Anna Maria Island and
Islanders.
But she always had a love of pho-
tography and for the past few years,
has been doing it professionally. She's
learned the specialty art of taking photo-
graphs and recreating the old black-and-
white look and hand-coloring black-and-
white photos.
JoAnn became such an accom-


polished photographer that she won the
prestigious J.L. Abbott photography
award from the Manatee Art Center in
2003.
She recently opened Your Choice
Portraits, which provides on-site pho-
tography services for weddings, parties,
family portraits and for people who just
want to have a special photograph cre-
ated in a unique style and look.
JoAnn likes to work directly with
her clients and comes to their location to
discuss the type of photo and style they
want.
She works by appointment and is
available from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven
days a week.
To reach JoAnn, call 730-8295 or
visit her Web site at www.yourchoice-
portraits.com.

Two years for
Ginny and Jane E's
in Anna Maria
Ginny and Jane E's at 9807 Gulf
Drive in Anna Maria will celebrate its
second anniversary on July 1.
Located at the old IGA building,
Ginny and Jane E's is a combination
store with something for just about
anyone.
In addition to vintage furnishings
with a coastal flair for the home and
garden, Ginny and Jane E's offers a
gourmet grocery, bakery and cafe, bulk
coffee, Internet service and fresh, exotic
flowers.
The store will be open July 4 for
holiday visitors to the Island and local
customers.
In addition to the Anna Maria loca-
tion, Ginny also has a store at 5602
Marina Drive in Holmes Beach.
For more information on Ginny and

Anna Maria doctor faces more sex charges


A doctor living in Anna Maria and arrested
in Manatee County June 5 for sex crimes against
a juvenile boy now faces similar charges in
Orlando.
According to Channel 6 in Orlando, Dr. George
Pyke, 57, was arrested by Seminole County author-
ities last week for sexually molesting a boy under
the age of 12 during the early 1990s when he lived
in the Orlando area.
The Orlando victim only recently came forward
to accuse Pyke after he learned of Pyke's June 5
arrest in Anna Maria, according to the news report.
"There is a strong possibility that there may
be other as-yet-unknown victims," said a Semi-


nole County Sheriff's Department spokesperson.
Authorities are also investigating another Seminole
County sexual assault incident allegedly involving
Pyke, the report said.
Pyke was formerly the team doctor for Lake
Brantley High School.
His name does not appear on the Florida
Department of Law Enforcement's convicted sexual
offenders list because he has not been convicted of
a sex crime.
Pyke retired from practice in 2001 and then
moved to the 700 block of North Shore Drive in
Anna Maria, according to the Seminole County
Sheriff's Office.


Former Anna Maria MSCO deputy suspended.


The Manatee County Sheriff's Office announced
last week it had suspended deputy Kevin Anderson for
six weeks for using poor judgment when he sent sexu-
ally explicit photographs of himself to a woman he met
on the Internet.
Anderson worked at the MCSO Anna Maria sub-


station for four months on the midnight shift before
he was transferred May 16 to the MCSO's East Mana-
tee substation. The incident took place before Ander-
son was assigned to the Anna Maria substation, the
MCSO said, and his transfer was prior to his suspen-
sion.

Sunny, sandy summer beach fun ahead this weekend


Although Memorial Day is usually considered the
unofficial start of summer, and June 21 was the official
start of the season, the Fourth of July weekend has
always seemed to be the real start of summer.
Roll in the sand, splash in the surf, sizzle some meat
and veggies on the grill and gather family and friends
for fireworks ah, summer is here!
And at .least for some of us, that weekend has to
include the Sunscoast Offshore Grand Prix powerboat
race off Sarasota, and all the festivities that ensue.
Yeah, some have referred to the high-speed boat
races as an "offshore tractor pull," but it's something of
a rite of the season and generally a heckuva lot of fun.
In its 22nd year, the races are supposed to be the
longest-running continuous site for the offshore racing
circuit, which in this incarnation is sanctioning Super
Boat International/American Power Boat Association.
The late Gene Whipp dreamed up the concept. His
vision was to have boat races and other surrounding
events on the July 4 weekend. Somebody suggested that
a not-for-profit group reap any financial benefits from
the races, kids were thought of as a good beneficiary,
and the Florida Center for Child and Family Develop-
ment was formed. It's gotten gazillions of dollars over
the years the kickoff party alone usually raises about
$100,000 for the agency.
There's a lot more to the offshore grand prix than
big, fast boats making lots of left turns in the Gulf of
Mexico. Festivities stretch out through 11 days. High-
lights include:
World's Largest Offshore Party Thursday, June
29, starting at 8 p.m. at the Hyatt Sarasota. Cost is $15
at the door.
Parade of Boats down Main Street in Sarasota
Friday, June 30, starting at U.S. 301 and Main Street
at 6 p.m., followed by a block party by the Main Street
merchants.
Driver/Sponsor Party & Concert Event at Robarts
Arena/Sarasota County Fairgrounds Friday, June 30.
Doors open at 7 p.m., music starts at 8, cost is $15 at
the door.
Powerboat Dry Pit Party at Sarasota Fairgrounds,
plus Motorcycle "Patriotic Poker Run" and Bike Show


Tax, driver, fishing license
office to serve Island
A new office of the Manatee County Tax Col-
lector has .opened on Manatee Avenue West to
serve Anna Maria Island and West Bradenton.
It is a full service facility, said Ken Burton
Jr., the tax collector, replacing the old downtown
office, which was partial service.
In addition to taxes, the office will handle
driver license renewals, fishing and hunting
licenses and voter registration. Kathi Seger is
the supervisor. \% ith Robin Boone as assistant and
Barbara O'Toole and Joe Fiorisi associates:
The new facility is in Suite 200, 7411 Mana-
tee Ave. W., Bradenton, its entrance on the south
side of the new Wagner Realty building near the
Albertson's store. This is the nearest to Island.

1, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. The poker run starts at 9 a.m.
Race day for the Suncoast Offshore Grand Prix
will be Sunday, July 2, with heats beginning at 11 a.m.
and 1 p.m. The course is from New Pass, between
Longboat Key and Lido Key, south to Siesta Key and
then back ... 'round and 'round.
The Sarasota Reds baseball team hosts Fireworks
Night July 3 at Ed Smith Stadium in Sarasota. Gates for
the baseball game against the Lakeland Tigers open at
6 p.m., game starts at 7 p.m., and fireworks follow the
game. Admission is $5.
Fireworks at Bayfront Park in downtown Sarasota
are at dusk July 4.
Oh, and there is supposed to be a special military
flavor to this year's events, with a U.S. Air Force fly-
over of the race course July 4 at 1 p.m.
This year's course appears to be one of the shortest in
distance in years, which means lots of action for beachgo-
ers on Lido Key. The course historically has been all over
the place: One year the boats did a loop inside Sarasota
Bay from Big Pass to New Pass, and another year there
was a run up to the city pier in St. Petersburg.
Fans complained that there wasn't anything to see
for a very long time, so the course got shorter and shorter.
And, of course, the action got hotter and hotter.
Then there was the year the weather turned bad,
they delayed the race, then ran it in Sarasota Bay. Tiny
course, lots of bounce, not much in the way of viewing
spots, but the race did go on.

Offshore race tips
Nary a boat race has taken place that we've missed
for the past 22 years. It's not the race itself, but the
spectacle that's always been fun, and the whole event
is indeed spectacular.
Here's some "insider's tips" for the Suncoast Off-
shore Grand Prix.
Get to everything early. It's kinda like what they
say about a hurricane evacuation.- the traffic and
volume of people are going to be much, much worse
than you could possibly imagine.
We used to pack up and figure to get to the beach
on Lido at about 8 a.m. for Nhat \%as then the 1 pjm.
start. We'd park, then go grab breakfast at either the
Holiday Inn or someplace on St. Armands Circle. By
the time we were done, parking was full, people were
everywhere, but we had the prime viewing spot.
Don't miss the parade,.this year Friday night. It's
one of the most wonderfully decadent events you can
imagine.
July 4 fireworks at the waterfront in downtown
Sarasota are hit and miss. usually hit. The show was


superb for a bunch of years, then got a bit lame. It's hard
to describe the difference, but to see and hear and feel
a great display versus a so-so set of lights and booms
tells the tale.
Be prepared to walk a lot. Dunno why, but any
,big event always seems to involve a lot of walking.
And if somebody can explain why they take their
pets to any of these types of events, please let me know. -
Most of the dogs I know turn into crazed beasts at the
sight and sound of fireworks, either trying to transform
into a teeny, tiny ball, or a berserk runaway. It can't be
fun for the critter, and it sure isn't pleasant for those of
us around the manic creature.
Happy Fourth of July!

More beach news
Dr. Steven Leatherman, "Dr. Beach," has come up
with his best beach listing for the year. Florida had two
on his top 10 list: Caladesi Island State Park in Dunedin
took the No. 2 spot, and Barefoot Beach Park in Bonita
Springs came in at No. 10.
Both beaches are beautiful and, to paraphrase a
colleague, "Been there, done that and, in this case, did
NOT get the T-shirt."
Both of Florida's top picks by Dr. Beach are tran-
quil, semi-deserted oasis-like spots far from'the usual
maze of Sunday beachgoers. Beautiful water, pristine
beach, great spots to work on that tan or. book.
The prize winner this year, by the way, was Flem-
ing Beach Park in Maui, Hawaii. I haven't been there
yet.
The complete list this year is as follows:
1. Fleming Beach Park, Maui, Hawaii.
2. Caladesi Island State Park, Dunedin, Fla.
3. Ocracoke Island, Outer Banks, NC.
4. Coopers Beach, Southampton, NY.
5. Hanalei Bay, Kauai, Hawaii.
6. Main Beach, East Hampton, NY.
7. Coast Guard Beach, Cape Cod, Mass.
8. Coronado Beach, San Diego, Calif.
9. Hamoa Beach, Maui, Hawaii.
10. Barefoot Beach Park, Bonita Springs, Fla. .
And here's a suggestion for a summer vacation:
Why not hit all the past winners? They are:
2005 Fort DeSoto Park North Beach, Fla.
2004 Hanauma Bay, Oahu, Hawaii.
2003 Kaanapali, Hawaii.
2002 St. Joseph Peninsula State Park, Fla.
2001 Poipu Beach Park, Hawaii.
2000 Mauna Kea Beach, Hawaii.
1999 Wailea Beach, Hawaii.
1998 Kailua Beach Park, Hawaii.
1997 Hulopoe, Hawaii.
1996 Lanikai Beach, Hawaii.
1995 St. Andrews, Fla.
1994 Grayton Beach, Fla.
1993 Hapuna, Hawaii.
1992 Bahia Honda SRA, Fla.
1991 Kapalua Bay Beach, Hawaii.

Sandscript factoid
Basic rule of thumb for fireworks displays seems
to be the cost runs about $1,000 per minute' if you
see you've got a $30,000 fireworks, show, expect it to.
run about 30 minutes.

Now's the time to catch those big macks by the beach


By Capt. Mike Heistand
Mackerel are the best bet in our waters right now,
with great catches off the beaches and in Tampa Bay.
Redfish are also thick in the backwaters, especially
near the mangroves along the shore.
And one lucky angler caught a 6-foot blacktip shark
from a dock at Palmetto Point in Terra Ceia Bay last
week using a cast net, of all things.
Capt. Tom Chaya on the Dolphin Dreams in
Holmes Beach out of Catchers Marina said he's find-
ing "plenty of tarpon schools on the beaches and passes,
lots of Spanish mackerel throughout the shallow Gulf
reefs and plenty of large sharks in bays near the Sun-
shine Skyway Bridge." He's also putting his charters
on redfish and snook on the outgoing tides.
Capt. Zach Zacharias on the Dee-Jay II out of
Parrot Cove Marina said that local waters are "get-
ting back to the pre-Tropical Storm Alberto state of
clarity. I don't know yet if this is a good or bad thing
regarding good angling action. Redfish were the big
deal inside, with fairly numerous fish on good tides
running up to 30 inches, as well as catch-and-release
snook, scattered trout, flounder, mangrove snapper and
jack crevalle. The beaches have been giving up Span-
ish mackerel, bluefish, bonito and sharks, as well as an
occasional tarpon hookup." Capt. Zach said he expected
snapper fishing to pick up in the next few days offshore,
with best baits to be small pinfish, sardines, white bait,
shrimp or chubs.
Bill Lowman at Island Discount Tackle at Catch-
ers Marina in Holmes Beach said mackerel are every-
where right now, especially along the beaches, and red-
fish are the hot ticket in the bays. Offshore action con-
tinues to be extraordinary for dolphin, wahoo and tuna,
with trolling baits working best for the better hookups.
Bottom fishing for grouper and snapper is also good in
the Gulf, but most of the action seems to be around the
100-foot depths or better, Bill said.
Capt. Thornm Smith at Angler's Repair on Cortez
Road said he's putting his charters onto a bunch of
small catch-and-release snook, keeper-size redfish,
mackerel and keeper trout, with both live and artificial
bait working well for him.
Bob Kilb at the Rod & Reel Pier said fishers there
are catching lots of Spanish mackerel, blue runners, lady-
fish, yellowtail jacks and a few barracuda. There is also
lots of whitebait hanging around the pier, he added.

Matt Bera caught a couple of 20-plus-pound redfish, like the one pictured, while fishing with cut bait in the Gulf
of Mexico with Capt. Mark Howard of Sumotime Charters. Capt. Howard noted that the fish were released.


Jesus Rosario at the Anna Maria City Pier said
there are "tons" of mackerel around the pier, plus some
small sharks and catch-and-release snook being caught
at night, plus yellowtail jacks.
Dave Johnson at Snead Island Crab House said
redfish are hitting in Terra Ceia Bay,- but most of the
action is very close to the mangroves along the shore.
Mackerel and sharks are also being caught from the
outside of the bay.
Capt. Rick Gross on Fishy Business, also out
of Catchers Marina, said his charters are catching
mackerel in the mornings and snook and redfish in the
afternoons. Whitebait is everywhere, helping the good
fishing, he concluded.
At Perico Island Bait and Tackle, reports include
redfish still being a good catch in upper Palma Sola Bay
at the higher tides. Trout are starting to hit better, and
mackerel is a wonderful catch right now.

At Skyway Bait and-Tackle, reports include mack-

reds from Miguel Bay, and mangrove snapper near the
shipping channels in Tampa Bay.
On my boat Magic, we've been catching plenty of
redfish in the past week, most in the 18- to 27-inch slot
limit. Offshore action included mackerel to 30 inches
and a few dolphin to 24 inches in length.
Good luck and good fishing.
