Wanna compete in one of the best Fishing Tournaments? McFlat’s Invitational is this Weekend!

Boats in the water at 7:30 for a shotgun start. Also, while the anglers are in the water feel free to invite the rest of your family & friends to come on over for the Ronald McDonald kids Fishing tournament and Ronald McDonald luncheon from 10:00am-12:00pm at Tarpon Point Marina. Kids will have the opportunity to have lunch with Ronald McDonald as well as the opportunity to win great prizes; surely a must do event for all the Florida kids who love to fish or would love to learn how.

The weigh-in will close at 4:00pm giving everyone the opportunity to take some time to get their boats cleaned up and meet back at the Hope Ball Room in the marina area of Tarpon Point Marina.

The awards dinner & auction will begin at 6:30. This isn’t your average awards banquet either; it will include an upscale dinner, open bar and music. So we are pleased to invite you to this 6th annual event that will prove to be an event you will be sure to schedule into your calendar for years to come.

“You can’t go wrong when you invite Florida anglers out to an event that will be great time as well as an event that will help those who truly need it; our children. Thank you so much for your sponsorship, your participation and your continued support of the Ronald McDonald House of Southwest Florida; anything you can do to help is sincerely appreciated.”

Sincerely,
Your 2010 McFlats Inviational Co-Chairs

Lee County BP Oil Spill

Beaches, Fishing, Fort Myers

Lee County BP Oil Spill

Lee County is known for great beaches, shopping, shelling, vacationing and wildlife.

We’ve had several inquiries regarding the BP Oil Spill and if it is affecting our beautiful Islands.

The photographer/videographer that I am Max Soto, decided to go around yesterday by myself to ask some island locals their thoughts and observations on the issue. I was pleased to hear what they said and what I personally saw. The fish are still biting, the beaches are pristine and beach goers are out! The only oil I saw was people applying tropical sun tanning oil while catching some sun. Watch the video for yourself.

After hearing how Sandy relaxes at the beach. I HAD to put my gear away and spend the rest of the afternoon enjoying the white sands and blue waters for myself.

Thank you Ric Base of the Sanibel-Captiva Chamber of Commerce, Les Boyle of the Bait Box, and Sandy Kostick of the SanibelCaptivaDaily.com, for the interviews.

P.S. Please join us in this endeavor! Through the lens of our camera, we invite you to explore and experience our special island community, and to capture the fun and essence of Sanibel and Captiva Islands. Whether you are young, old, a resident or a visitor… this site is for you! Stay tuned for more photos and videos as we keep you visually informed daily.

He can be found at www.RealAgentAssist.com. Scott said he will be putting more videos of the trip together, but until then you can go to his website and click on the picture of the sailboat on his homepage to see and read more about the trip! Scott also said he really misses the cruising life, and if you need a boat delivered to Bora Bora – he’s your guy!

    Fort Myers Fishing. This weekend, our photographer Max, went Fishing in Fort Myers. Lucky for the fish, he had no idea how to catch them. The only thing he could get, was an already dead fish head he found on the beach of Fort Myers. So check out his fish head photos from his Fort Myers Fishing trip. If you have better fishing photos from Fort Myers, send them in so people can see how big your catch was!
