If you do decide to go to Fort Island Beach Park in Crystal River, they have a fishing pier there. I saw a guy hook and lose a big tarpon there. It jumped out of the water twice before breaking the line... very impressive. There's a bait shop on the road to the park. Besides the man-made beach, there's also a boat launching ramp, some picnic tables and restrooms. When we were there, the mosquitoes got my wife on the boardwalk between the beach and the fishing pier.
