Expectations were set pretty high as we watched Captain Mike load several full size trash 🗑️ bins full of ice onboard. Mike did not disappoint at any of the several sites he selected to 🐟 fish. Site one was full of fiesty amber jack yanking our lines. Then it was off to snapper city. Grouper at the next stop. That’s where the BIG one had my daughter “crying uncle” before the Goliath ended the battle breaking off the line. Kate was able to put two legal red grouper in the box. She dubbed her side of the boat “grouper city” and asked me if I wanted to fish there. I was content with the non-stop snapper action I was experiencing on the starboard side. Moving on, the next site also provided non-stop snapper action with an occasional grouper landed. Mike was careful with the release of under-sized fish, especially those smaller grouper who found the circle hook through their lips. It took me a while to figure out “don’t set the hook, just reel” but I did. Just soon enough to put the biggest fish of the day into our bag and forever claim the fishing championship from my daughter… Once again Dad rules. Releasing way more than we kept, our Reel Blue C “landed”  or boated amber jack, vermilion, lane, mangrove and yellow tail snapper, trigger fish, porgy, a Goliath grouper and MANY red grouper. At the end of the day my daughter and I enjoyed assisting Captain Mike in the ritual “cleaning of the catch” and the feeding of the pelicans. Thanks Captain Mike, we had a hoot! Sorry about wearing out your tackle. Suggest you check in the miscellaneous maintenance account for replacement funds. Kate & Kevin
