Have a great time. I was down there the first 3 weeks of Jan. Coldest on record. You're in for a treat.
Bring a sweatshirt on the boat. You may need it if a front comes through.
Enjoy!!:gu:

ThomCat 01-30-2008, 07:05 AM :cheers2::cool: Sloppy Joe's is great, great atmosphere, great music, great drinks and some big-ass marlin on the walls. Hog's Breath ain't bad either:buds:. In the shops, don't buy anything for the first price you hear. Beat 'em down.

Willy G. 01-30-2008, 09:42 AM I was on the 2 day trip over the weekend. Fishing was a slow pick--I ended with 5 muttons, a 20lb king, and a pile of yellowtails/mangroves. Be sure to bring a couple of stinger king rigs since there were some nice ones around cutting yellowtails in half as they were brought to the surface.
Have fun!
-Willy.
macojoe 01-30-2008, 10:00 AM Thanks Willy!
I can't wait!! How was the weather for you?? I hear the lows at night are 60's days high 70's??
Willy G. 01-30-2008, 10:18 AM Yep that sounds about right...long sleeve t-shirt at night, short-sleeves during the day. Weather was beautiful, except a little puffy at the beginning and end of the trip.
EarnedStripes44 01-30-2008, 11:00 AM yea, enjoy that grilled mutton snapper....
keeperreaper 01-30-2008, 01:57 PM Macojoe,
To bring the fish back just put in a cooler with frozen little chickens as ice. They stay frozen for a long time, keep the fish cold and is legal.
thats how a lot of boys bring their tuna home from LA.
macojoe 01-30-2008, 02:39 PM Thats perfect Keeper!! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
While on a site seeing trip of the caribbean we pulled over and checked this place out http://www.fortjefferson.com/home.htm. pretty cool.
Have fun & watch out for the sun
the Dry Tortuga's.
I will have at least another day to mess around there as well, any food, clubs, or must sees while I am there?
Thanks guys!
