From Cockroach down to around Port Manatee used to be our favorite fishing area when we'd come over from Lakeland.
My dad used to fish Cockroach a lot back in the 50s and 60s. He and three of my uncles went down there one weekend and set up camp on a small island. They were gonna stay out for a couple of days and load up on fish. One of those quick summer storms came up as they were setting up camp. They started hearing this loud noise, sounded like all the jets at MacDill firing up. One of my uncles yelled "Grab a tree!". Dad says he hit the ground and held on to a big palm tree, then watched a waterspout form in the bay about 50 yards away and head right at them. When he stood up there was nothing on that island over 3 feet high! They found their little aluminum boat about a half mile away and some of their other stuff scattered between there and camp. He hasn't been to keen on camping on the islands since then!
Wow I would have sh@t my pants, what a crazy story!!!!
