If you're an angler, Ronnie Green, the manager of Paradise 

 Point and former owner of the land on which it is built, guar- 

 antees that the guides will lead you to fish. You have a choice 

 of the headwaters, the main river, the side channels, the pot- 

 holes, and the Gulf itself. 



As for the hunting hereabouts I have only hearsay evidence, 

 but I'm told that these wildernesses are one of the better duck- 

 hunting areas of Florida. The woods are also full of deer and 

 wild turkey. 



Just an hour and a half from the population centers of Tampa 

 and St. Petersburg are some of Florida's wildest jungles. Wheth- 

 er you choose to take a tank of air and go down to meet fish, or 

 take a boat and do your exploring above water, it's an intriguing 

 region for the traveler with adventure in his blood. 



Large school of mangrove snappers.
