Guessing you have a kayak. What kind of fishing are you looking for? Do you have a sonar with GPS? Have you bought and looked at Hook-N-Line maps for any area you want to go? It has locations marked to fish. Do you have all your gear needed for the fish you want to catch?
Let us know more of what you want to catch and how far you want to go and maybe some help will be given.
I suggest if you are getting back into fishing the coast buy Ray Crawford's book "Wade and Kayak Fishing the Upper Gulf Coast". Great book to guide you where to fish and launch your yak.
Good luck!
