keys trip

My g/f took me to the keys to celebrate my 50th b-day. She asked me if I wanted a party and I said take me fishing instead. I was stoked when she suggested this! She’s the best!

Spent a couples days in Key West having fun, then went to the middle keys to fish renting a boat for 5 days. My fishing buddy Bill and his wife joined us for four days. We had a blast catching all kinds of stuff, nothing grandeur but still checked off a bunch of species. I got my 1st snook at the dock one early morning unfortunately no pic and hooked a tarpon but didn’t it hold when he jumped! Bunch of pics of our adventure. Want to thank Roy for some tips which helped out.

Our favorite bar in Key West

Enjoying Mallory Square


1st barracuda

Got a shark like 5 ft long, think it was a black tip shark


Got a bunch of needlefish

Got 2 nice mahi and tons of schoolies



Had a blast snorkeling, sprinkling crushed chips brought them right to the boat!

Tarpon fishing- my version!
