Have you met Gnarly yet? If you are wondering who–or what–is Gnarly, than you better get on down to our marina and meet this loveable white (kinda-fluffy) dog who will absolutely steal your heart in about two seconds.

This winter has been amazingly warm in the Tampa Bay area. January days hitting the upper 70s and even 80? Pinch me! As an angler, if you get out before or after any cold fronts, you can find some pretty awesome inshore fishing here on the Suncoast. Approaching fronts will keep offshore boats tied to [...]

A white, sandy beach isn’t usually what you see on a holiday card, but to us, Florida is the winter wonderland! Come on, it’s 80 degree outside – the best December weather ever! Who doesn’t prefer bathing suits to winter coats? And Tampa Bay fishing versus ice fishing? Well, the answer is pretty obvious – [...]
Tell us a little about yourself. I live on North Longboat, just down the street from Cannons. I’ve been out here for 25 years, give or take. I sell high end real estate. Did you grow up in the Sarasota area? No, I grew up in North Carolina, mostly in the Raleigh-Durham area. [...]

The project was headed up by Sarasota Bay Watch and its co-founder, Rusty Chinnis. He and his group have been working so hard to bring our Bay back to health and one way to do [...]
