Sunday June 10th- Both the morning and afternoon half day trips saw amazing fast action with king mackerel. Catching our limit on both trips, and releasing many fish to find another day.
Thursday June 14th- Bottom fishing was really good today with a steady pick all day. We ended up with 4 really nice gag grouper in the 25lb class, along with 3 scamp groupers (one was 17lbs!!),1 red grouper, 2 nice red snapper, 3 amberjack and 3 monster triggerfish!! A good time was had by all.
Saturday June 16th- FSFA Tournament- Steve Repanshek of Anheuser-Busch along with some associates joined us today to fish in the annual FSFA tournament with over $27,000 in cash and prizes up for grabs. This by far was one of the best bottom fishing days I have ever seen in my life. We caught some really nice baits in the morning and headed to deep water to see if we could find ourselves that 35+ pound gag grouper. Well we found him alright and a whole bunch of his friends. We had NONSTOP action all day with BIG GROUPER, amberjack and a few red snapper. We ended up with a total of 12 Monster Gag's(37.1, 35.0, 31.2 being the largest 3) and took first place in the tournament. We also had 6 amberjacks, an 5 almaco jacks, and a few nice red snapper. Fishing at its best.
Thursday July 12th- We crossed the gulfstream today in search of Yellowfin tuna. The water has been very warm lately which has made it hard to catch tuna. But with A LOT of driving around we found a nice pocket of water and ended up catching 4 really nice yellowfins to 60lbs and a few blackfins and skipjacks. Sashimi dinner!!!!!
