Here's a sneak peak at the subject of my outdoor column this week in Florida Today's Sports section. It should be up later this afternoon. Had the chance to get out Friday with Capt. Jim Ross aboard the 24-foot Skeeter, Fine Line and shoot some pictures of a new artificial reef being built. The Florida Sport Fishing Association and Brevard County (in conjunction with the Central Florida Offshore Anglers) deployed 24 manmade artificial reef modules about 15 miles due east of Port Canaveral, Florida. A good starting point for the new reef is 28 24 .0852 N / 080 18 .4604 W. This is roughly 1/2 mile west of the area known locally as the Lumps and in the northwest corner of the existing artificial reef area permitted to Brevard County and the FSFA. Specific numbers will be available on the FSFA and CFOA websites for members.
