I remember going over the bridge at night and seeing all the lights from the boats fishing the Dumping Grounds. It was like a city. My first charter trip where I remember was on those grounds. I can actually remember the boats almost being gunwale to gunwale. The captain was mashing clams with a sledge hammer in a bucket for chum. Glad to see the area is still doing well.

That spot was hot again this year but only for a few weeks as you know but boy can it hold some nice fish at the right time of year. Thanks for another great read and look forward to hooking up with you very soon, I still need a ride on that boat. Shawn,

I wouldn't put anything past the Corps of Engineers of wreck the Everglades fame, but its amazing what can be changed if people voice their opposition to something. Thanks for writing. Don Shawn,
