The people behind the new Florida Gulf Coast Center for Fishing and Interactive Museum in Largo, Jana and Jim Simons, pose here with the tasty and colorful hogfish. The Simons’ believe strongly that children can learn life lessons through fishing, and their not-for-profit Center is already proving it.
Fishing clubs established in schools across Florida, and soon in Georgia, are underway. The Simons have inventive plans for camping programs, school projects, a culinary school and more.

FANTASTIC FISHING
At Anglin’s Fishing Pier, Lauderdale by the Sea, Florida. Hurry on down and get in on some of the finest fishing you could imagine — blues - mackerel - snapper - snook - tarpon - cobia and pompano. Just look at those on the other side of this card. Better hurry - get in on the fun.
Is there something special about that fish in his left hand?
