We hooked this Redfish by Picnic Table Point, fought it all the way to the Dam. Roughly a 15 minute battle. We weighed it at 22 pounds. It was the first 20 pound Redfish that was landed in my boat in about 6 years.

Bobby Brown with Sundance Sportfishing Florida Keys Marathon, Florida Reported: 11 months ago

End of the Year brings great fishing on the Reefs, last of the Mahi and still Wahoo. Sailfish have already been caught in Marathon, so sight casting to Sailfish surfing the waves is always a Blast!! Great size Grey (Mangrove) Snapper, Yellowtail Snapper and Large Muttons are showing up on the Reefs and wrecks. Amberjack are always a great battle on medium gear and a bonus catch while on the wrecks. We've had some windy days mixed in throughout the week, so plan on a back-up day, just in case, for a chance at a better day on the water. Dates are filling up quickly for our 2025 Sailfish Season, so be sure to book early!!

Bryan is an extremely professional and humorous guide. He was helpful and made the trip enjoyable from beginning to end. We have never been on a charter fishing trip before and did not know what to expect. This was well worth the time and monetary expense. I highly recommend him.

Excellent morning on Calaveras Lake! Capt Bones couldn’t have been more accommodating to my husband, myself and our 6yr old son who had never been on a chartered fishing trip before. It was a slow start but it turned on a little later and had a blast! Highly recommend Bones Fishing!!
