For some, the love of the great outdoors isn’t limited to parks or vacations but has become an extension of their homes.  Speaking as a person who prefers hiking to watching TV, I have always found that casting a line in my favorite fishing hole is time well spent.  After all, fishing allows you to spend quality time with family and friends, instills a deep appreciation for the outdoors and promotes responsible use of our nation’s waters.

I recently searched and found the ideal property for every type of angler (just call it daydreaming).

Fishing the Florida Flats

Have you ever sat down at your breakfast table wondering if the fish are biting that day?   Never wonder again with this beautiful property overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in Plantation Key, Fla.  An additional benefit to living in this stunning home, you can just look out the window to see if the Tarpon are jumping.

A River Runs Petty Close

A river doesn’t run through it, but it does come pretty close!  If you are looking for the perfect spot to test your fly fishing skills, give this log cabin lodge a look.  This beautiful home in Eureka, Montana is nestled along the Trout filled waters of the Tobacco River.

Surfing for Fish

Aloha!  You may not feel that living in a complex is a fisherman’s den, but you should if it has miles of beach just outside the door.  Surf fishing is great way to enjoy sand, waves and sun all while casting for Bonefish or the popular Barracuda.  So grab your sunscreen and surf pole and hit the beach for some real fun in the sun.
