A great day aboard. The little migratory fish are here on the reef in Marathon Fl. The fish are little guys but a lot of fun. At one time we had over 12 fish behind the boat, an incredible sight. They are up on the reef in 20 to 30' of water pushing bait- mostly ballyhoo. To see this happen is amazing even to me doing it for 40 years. What a great time for my customers and crew. Also the bottom bite is off the scale. Yellow tail snapper, mutton snapper, king fish, and many other species. Time to...

Don't forget the sailfish are all catch and release but as much dinner as you want otherwise!

Hey David! We had some wind come in yesterday afternoon/today which clouded up the shallow patch reefs and made for some good fishing today. Water temp has dropped off to 78 degrees and we are starting to see a lot of our winter migratory fish!

    Kevin was an amazing guide. He was very knowledgeable and provided easy step by step instruction instructions while fighting 2 - 5 foot lemon sharks in less than 1/2 hour before daylight faded. Both were unkooked boat side with great video and pictures. His boat is clean and organized making it safe and easy to move around the boat while battling a catch of a lifetime for 2 Wisconsinites. Thanks Kevin. See you soon.

    We had an amazing time iguana hunting! There were thunderstorms in the distance when we arrived, and I honestly thought the trip would be canceled—but our guides, Wesley and Matt, knew exactly what they were doing. We never got a single drop of rain and they spotted way more iguanas than we ever would have on our own. The only thing I’d do differently is bring my own flashlight. They had plenty to share, but not enough for everyone to have one at the same time. Highly recommend this adventure!
