Bullocks!! - I can't believe wannasurf will post this Don Pedro Island, but whon't post my request for Anclote Island. Anclote Island in Tarpon has way more than a mile of beach, is exposed to all swell directions, and is one of the unknown premier surf spots on the Gulf. The only reason I talk about it is sometimes I get tired of surfing perfection alone and woud like to see a small scene develop. Well I'll get off my soap box now. Peace.
