Publix actually. I found a great place to get them but it’s a tad if a drive to the farmers market. The Publix is 1 mile from my driveway.

Apparently, Detwillers is some kind of super farmers market here. I am planning on hitting it on Saturday. Fruit, meat and seafood.





I’m sure 88tiger has been there.

You get limes from a Mexican store, a tienda, like you would for cilantro, dried chiles, and tortillas.

If I am not mistaken, the shortened season is June/July. I think you missed it


I am about to order my bay boat. I am hoping to get the tackle business all settled soon so I can start fishing. This is what I'm ordering. 2022 Tidewater 2410 Bay Max with Yamaha 300F

Cant wait




ETA, yep June through July

Beautiful boat. Love the center consoles. Growing up, my uncle had a Robalo that I spent a lot of time on

I have fished on them many many times and even ran one for a while but it will be my first time owning one.

Really looking forward to the change in techniques and scenery...

I have but don't prefer it. Their produce is usually a little aged.

We buy some at Aldi's and at the local farm Geraldson's Family Farm when stuff is in season.

As for your bass, you should find someone who fishes for trophy bass and go with them to the old phosphate lakes in the middle of the state...at one time people were pulling out over 5 lb bass...wouldn't eat them though...Glad things are going well for you and settling in...you will really love it come Jan-Feb

Other than the boat, this whole thread makes me sad. Limes in tequila? WTF?


Ran 5 miles up hill tonight. Drinking Singing River IPAs.

Don’t lime the tequila. Don’t fruit the beer.

Love Singing River and Florence, AL. My nephew is the quarry Mgr for Vulcan there. My niece went to UNA. Love fishing there.


I always go out of my way for the local beers. Always.

yea, I have a lot of experience bass fishing in this state. Won a boat on Toho 12 years ago. Ive spent months on Okeechobee and on Lake George and the river.

Id like to make a trip to the everglades. I have a good friend in Tampa that does that. Im sure I will make that trip a good bit.

The Braden River runs very close to my house here. I see boats running up and down it when I drive across. Will give Geraldsons a look as well

Thanks man. Drop by the shop one day. Just look me up and I will send you the address. We are there every day during the week just slaving away

Since I am working from home will have to be before I go back to our physical location in Sarasota. Glad to hear that you are settling in nicely. Oh and Geraldson Farms is a cash only business. But if you like peppers etc...they used to grow habineros for us while my boys were at home as we kept them cleaned out of them...they have them every so often now. But they will grow something if the demand is there...
