What a day with this great family from PA. This family had little experience fishing in the Florida Keys and decided to book a 3/4 reef and wreck trip. The goal was to catch enough snappers to bring home and also enjoy a few meals while on vacation. The second part of the goal was to catch a big fish! Everything fell into place today. The family was patient learning the tactic we showed them. In no time they landed 30 keeper Yellowtail Snappers a Tuna along with a few other reef fish. We then moved out to the wrecks in deeper water. Our first drift in 140 feet with a live pinfish hooked a keeper mutton snapper. Mutton snappers are not very well known by folks throughout the country. They are extremely finicky fish that fight hard and taste absolutely delicious. The young 6 year old angler not only reeled this Mutton Snapper in from 140 feet but she didn’t need any help. I was right by her side in case she did. The smile on her face I will never forget. This is why I do what I do! We did a few more drifts with no bites. We moved to another wreck. On the very last drift with live bait this time in 200 feet the rod bent in half! Dad took over and in less than 20 minutes landed a trophy African Pompano! This entire trip was epic which is why the 3/4 reef and wreck is one of our favorite trips. Thanks for reading and tight lines everyone!
