I fished off the shore at Green Turtle yesterday for nothing. A guy in a boat with two trolling motors said they were getting perch and one bass.
Yep, no kayaks, canoes or folding boats at the sheds. I know there was a petition going around on paddling forums a few years ago to get that changed but I doubt anything came of that.

Green Turtle gets pretty heavy pressure, so can be tough. I've done OK with bass there with soft plastics around the island. Trout hold over there and people have told me they catch them even in the summer in the deep part, using a marshmallow power bait on a slip sinker. I haven't tried that yet though.
