Really cool place, love coming down here. Family is diving tomorrow, not me, I’m going to do some shore fishing. Going offshore again on Sunday and flats fishing with my daughter on Monday.

There is some good eating fish you got there. Especially that wahoo!! 

Looks like the weather is cooperating there better than here.

Flats trip on Monday, hopefully get my daughter on some Bonefish. Beautiful here.

In the meantime Wahoo steaks and Snapper fish tacos for dinner.

I didn’t recognize your boys at first because we normally see them holding a very large buck.

Tommy met a guy on the dock behind the condo this morning that has a 5000 acre farm in Minnesota. Got his business card and permission to hunt. It never ends.

Looks like a great day.

We’ve fished with Mr Walleye in Marathon three days and caught a limit of yellowtail one day and Mangrove Snapper the other two days along with an assortment of other fish. Nothing like the kings and wahoo though. I

Yesterday was our last day fishing with Mr Walleye. He put us on another nice limit of Yellowtail Snapper. He and his wife were great hosts for our stay as usual.

Offshore yesterday was a bust. 7 footers plus came off the water early. 
Epic backcountry trip with my daughter though. Landed three dozen plus Snook, a two man limit of jumbo Mangrove Snapper. Guide put in over 70 miles to put us on good fish. 
Highlight for me was when I got bit off by a BIG Barracuda. Retied and pitched and it was on. Took me into the mangroves but got lucky and a half hour later we got it in the boat. No clue what it weighed but it bottomed out his 20lb Boga Grip. Was a wonderful day.
