Anna Maria Island was once inhabited by Native Americans, but as the beauty became known to its first homesteader, George L.

The Islander newspaper of the 1950s heralded, "Where life is good and the fishing is great." Anglers came from afar to test their skills against tarpon, the world's greatest game fish, and to hunt goliath grouper in the depths of Tampa Bay.
