I can tell you there is no better place to fish for snook, reds and tarpon due to the fact that their fight is so much more fun in a space the size of most bathrooms. LOL Its a place that you can fish everyday for a year and be where no other human has been at anytime. And when you look at a chart of the area you will see where the chart stops it simply says numerous ponds and streams.. This is where the reall good fishing is. I am going to ask everyone a favor here. Please keep an eye on this area and make sure we dont loose it to the Parks belief that we the fisherman dont need to go back there. This a an area like no other that will both test every skill you have of boat handling, navigation, angling and fish fighting ability. It is our true last wilderness of the Everglades. For years they have wanted to shut this area down to boats but so far we have been able to fend them off. I dont live in the area anymore so I could use all the help I can get on this and other matters about to be known about what is happening in the park. I will post some Deep Hells Bay pics if you like.. A lot of great snook and tarpon images.
yes. i am looking for information about hell's bay location, pictures would be awesome.

thanks for the story.
