Robbie's Tarpon Feed

Robbie's of Islamorada, a must for anyone visiting the Florida Keys. For one dollar, you walk out on the pier and feed the tarpon. Look for the pelican obsessed Australian sheperd; he leaps the boats in his ever unsuccessful quest to capture a pelican. A bucket of 10 or 12 bait fish to feed the dozens of 4 to 7 feet long tarpon costs 2 bucks and is well worth it.
