Bottom fishing for grouper & snapper & cobia is good if you know where to go. Bay fishing for snook, redfish, tarpon and trout is great. Nice area to live and you can purchase a really nice home for a hell uv a good price right now. More so than most other areas of FL. The slow down has really impacted SW Fl. Can't speak about the schools I have been gone to long. Good luck.

You have picked the right two communities if you plan to move here. Fishing is great. (snook, redfish, trout, snapper, cobia, kingfish, tarpon, grouper, etc etc.) What line of work are you in?

Fishing is awesome if you know where to go, offshore it's the best it's been in 10 years. Schools here are what they call "school choice" which means you pick the school you want your kids to go to anywhere in the county. You make a list and hope your kid gets selected to go to one of the top 3 on your list.

What would you consider a "good job"?

Nicmegmatt · 02-06-2009, 04:05 PM

I probably would be more interested in buying a biz, a job would have to pay some decent $. I own a company here in RI, the older I get the more i get sick of the cold. My parents live in Naples/RI.

Capt. Joe thanks for the info, I will look into the school issue you mentioned and hope for the best. I think I have decided to accept the offer and am traveling over there tomorrow to check out the area. Thanks again
