Looking for a good launch

[osufan1]

Hi guys, I am new to this site but have been kayaking for about 3 years up in Jacksonville. I recently bought my grandson who lives in Pinellas Park a kayak and am getting him into kayak fishing. He has been riding in the back of mine for awhile but has gotten too big for that. In the next couple of weeks I am going down for a visit and want to take him out for a little fishing and training in his new yak. I would like some help picking out a good launch to use where the paddle is not too difficult and maybe we can get on some fish. Also someplace where the water is good no matter what the tide happens to be since I am just going to be there for a couple of days, but I do come down 5-6 times a year and will be taking him out most visits. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Hope to meet some of you on the water sometime. Thanks again and tight lines!!!

Fort Desoto is a good choice. Turn right/west onto a short road just after the toll booth and before you go over the bridge. Launch from the beach. Easy paddle and there's usually fish around.

Thanks for the info. Think I'll try out Ft. Desoto when I get down there
