Trip Summary

When you get a day off as a Captain, what do you do with your vacation? You go FISHING!!!!!! What a GREAT gift when I went fishing with one of my son's and my best friends and fellow Fathers on Father's Day: MY life is truly BLESSED, the Lord watches over me, guides me, and Blesses me all the days of my life. Deep Dropping with my son Shane and friends. Pictures tell the story: Started the day with a beautiful sunrise, ended the day with a gorgeous sunset (OK, this is a little lie, I took this picture the day before, but it makes the story better). Limit of Golden Tilefish, one Blueline Tilefish, and a Snowy grouper. TONS of laughes and always great memories with my son and friends. Love you guys

Headed out in some choppy seas but found the Blackfin Tuna and Cobia. Then did some bottom fishing for Grouper, Snapper, and the "ever elusive and Endangered Red Snapper". Thats a joke, we have more Red Snapper than ever before. You literally can't bottom fish without catching them on every drop! Got a STUD Triggerfish, weighed in at 8.5 lbs! The biggest Triggerfish I have ever seen live. Mixed bag of vermillion, grunts, and other miscellaneous bottom fish that we managed to get past the TONS of sharks out there.

Had a great half day of kingfishing, Cobia Fishing, and miscellaneous by-catch including a LOT of large SHARKS! Caught and landed 4 nice kingfish, 2 nice Cobia that were just too small to keep (sorry, don't have pix of those), lost several kings, and lost several to sharks. Hooked several sharks that we eventually broke off because they had to be over 500 lbs. Steady action all morning

Put in a full day and did some deep dropping: Got our limit of Golden Tilefish and had 4 throw backs because we were over the limit and couldn't keep them. Got our one Snowie Grouper we were allowed to keep and a nice yellowedge Grouper. A few Blueline Tilefish to add in there. Had a bonus 14 lb Dolphin (Mahi Mahi) swim up and offer to join us for dinner too!!!!!! Steady action all day Had one super hero hooked up, I'm sure it was a slob Yellowedge, but he shook his head and pulled the hook. The fish are biting out there. Come join me!
