Alabama Jacks! Wow, that's a throwback. I remember stopping there on the way up to The OB, 5 or so, us of early 20's it was like the scene in a movie where the music stops and everyone looks at youYes sir I used to fish those island channels in the keys in the 70's also. Had a friend that had a 14 ft' aluminum with a 15 hp and we'd get in there easily. And yes they were loaded with mangos. But also at that time we used to rent the old wooden boats that had live wells in the middle from Alabama Jacks and kill the mangrove snapper in the finger channels just east of the Card Sound bridge. I've tried them since and they are somewhat fished out.
