On the way down, check out World Wide Sportsmen, it's owned by Bass Pro Shops now and is still one of the coolest tackle shops anywhere.

RE: Where to go/what to do in Key West
The ride down is also great. Take your time. It usually takes me a few days to get the 150 miles to Key West from my house in Fort Lauderdale. We ride fast until hitting "The Last Chance" in Homestead. Than to either the "Unwinder" or go the other way to "Alabama Jacks". Flip a coin at this fork in the road as that will decide your whole life (na..) Next, when entering Key Largo, try the “Caribbean Club". That is the first bar you come to. Next pack up and go next door to the “Italian Fisherman”. Now when you leave there, cut across the street about ½ mile down and go to the Paradise Lounge. Use to ride with him about 15 years ago. Good clams on the ½ shell. When you leave there cross the parking lot and go to……. Now you see why sometimes we never make it all the way down on any given weekend.
You do not need me, you will do just fine on your own.

Go adopt one of earnest hemingways 6 toed cats, they are in danger of going to the pound because they roam off the property. I was thinking I would like to have a couple, send them over here. You can also wade out in the water a small bit and be in the southern most tip of the United States.. The key lime pies is not to be beat either. There is plenty to do there. And mel fishers is a good choice like you said.

I am headed to Key West for a couple days before heading back up to Daytona for Biketoberfest. Anything that is a must see/do down there? I want to see Mel Fisher's museum of artifacts from the Atochia. Plan on parking the bike for 2 days and drinking myself into oblivion...lol.
I also heard there were some 'clothing optional' bars... sounds nice on the surface, but not sure it would be on par with Lollypops in Daytona...lol.

On your way down, before you leave themainland,check out Everglades Natl. park. Especiallyif your camping, once youget into the keys, its almost all corral, tuff to drive tent pegs into that !
