Take Dramamine the night before going out, tip that was given to us and we made it through the day well.

Patience - the fish are out there and they are biting. Full moon allows the predators to hunt all night so expect slower days when the moon is full, or near full.

Lots of fishing activity but I guess the time I was there wasn't a good time, perhaps the weather or the direction of the wind?

A bit of a long boat ride over to the Glades, but great open water runs and super fishing in the flats makes it worth the trip.

Fishing Booker is actually wrong, I believe, in this boat's location. This particular boat is out of Islamarada. Not sure it matters unless you actually wanted to fish Key Largo.

Make sure to reserve time for more than one day fishing. Don't go out if any whitecaps are visible, and make sure you can cancel without getting stuck with full cost.
