Trip Summary
Trip Summary
We headed out at 12:30 PM on February 28th for a 4 hour afternoon fishing tour with a family of four. Ocean conditions were very nice, with calm seas and pleasant weather that made for a comfortable trip on the water.
We used a mix of live bait and artificial lures throughout the trip, switching up techniques to see what the fish were responding to best. After some steady jigging, the family hooked into a strong amberjack, which put up a great fight and was definitely the highlight of the afternoon.
In addition to the amberjack, we also caught a small snapper and trigger fish while working the bottom. Overall, it was a fun and successful outing with great conditions and good action for the whole family.
