Homosassa - Saltwater Fishing Report
Mid-South Hunting & Fishing Extravaganza
Memphis, Tennessee
Damon Corbett wins FREE charter!!
We would like to thank everyone who came by to visit with us at the Mid-South Hunting & Fishing Extravaganza in Memphis, Tennessee, August 7th through August 9th. The show was a great success and we look forward to fishing with our new friends here in our little piece of paradise; Homosassa, one of Florida's last best kept secrets! We really enjoyed our time in Blues City, especially the Southern hospitality, Peabody Hotel, Graceland, great Beale Street music and awesome restaurants, (Circa by John Bragg, Chez Philippe, Blues City Café, & McEwen's on Monroe).
The "Gourmet Getaway" Tour was the talk of the show and generated interest from many groups of fishermen. Experience Florida like it was hundreds of years ago on this two day fishing adventure on two of Florida's most beautiful waterways, the Homosassa and Chassahowitzka Rivers. Please check our website, www.HomosassaRedfish.com/gourmet-getaway.htm, for all the details pertaining to any fisherman's dream in a true fishing paradise. This adventure guarantees memories that will last a lifetime!
Damon Corbett was the winner of the drawing at the Memphis show for the FREE full day charter. Damon's charter is good for one to four people, and includes everything except lunch, beverages and gratuity, trip must be taken on a mutually agreeable date within one year from the date of the Memphis show. Due to the overwhelming response we will be doing a drawing for a FREE charter at all future trade shows.
