Little Alligator Creek Trestle fishing spot.
This is located just south of Punta Gorda, right next to U.S. 41.
Big Snook, and small Tarpon hang
out here all winter. Small swimming lures work great,
But the old 16 bombers bag the big ones early morning and evenings.
Live Bait such as Shrimp work
well.

I am not sure how legal it is to park here so make sure you check for signs.
Do not get hit by passing cars. Safety first. Boys and girls.
All-way check for no trespassing signs. Things change from time to time.
These are to cover my butt in case things have changed since I was there last.
