Rainy day fun
Rainy day fun
Apr 14, 2016 Destin
Had a great fishing trip in the rain with 5 Atlanta ladies that have never fished before and their boss. They were troopers and had a great time in the rain. Like we always say "fish don't know it's raining!!" With 127 fish being caught total and bringing 86 back to the dock the girls had a blast. Not bad for a 4 hr trip on a rainy day that other boats didn't even go out. Thanks Atlanta crew!!

Aug 8, 2015 Destin
Shark Saturday was on fire again!! Customer asked if we could go catch a shark, so instead of 1 shark we caught 9 sharks. Sharks ranged from **hidden content** lbs. In addition to the Sharks we caught 12 amber jacks and 2 King fish. Started out a little slow. It took about 45 minutes to get them going, but once they started biting it was on. With all 9 sharks back to back, while jigging for amberjacks on the other side of the boat. We had to dodge a few storms, but we luck was on our side. We stayed relatively dry and caught a nice load of fish. Customers were ecstatic!

Opening day of amber jack season in federal water was another awesome day aboard Maximus. We had 4 big amberjacks in the first 45 minutes on our morning trip. Following up with our limit of AJs on our afternoon trip as well. The bite was a little funny with the full moon, nothing wanted to bite live bait but the butterfly jig proved to get a great bite! Both families were great to fish with morning and afternoon.
