Don't overlook the great largemouth bass fishing in the area. I went to FSU in 1970 to attend school and enjoyed the best bass fishing of my life in the shallow lakes that abound in N. Fla. near Tallahassee. My first and second bass over 10 pounds came from the then famous Lake Jackson that was just a short drive from campus.

The salt water is not that far and as has been mentioned, there may still be many places for quick access--I say "may be" because I haven't been back to fish the area in 35 years and I probably wouldn't recognize it at this time.
