Marathon Florida
Spent seven days in Marathon in the Florida Keys. Weather was great 80 degrees and fishing was great too, fished five mornings. Fished aboard the Marathon Lady about 65 foot for a half day at a cost of 45.00 dollars and if you wanted to fish the afternoon they charge another 25 bucks. Caught a lot of small fish such as yellow tail, grouper and grunts. Average morning catch was 25-30 fish, enough to keep me busy either throwing them back overboard or giving them to the crew or others that were not catching fish. Do not use them boat rods.
Gear to use is light spinning rod set up cost 30 -36 bucks, 1/16, 1/8 or 3/16 yellow jigheads depending on current with a piece of squid.
One day was very windy, blew 25 knots, 4 foot chop and whitecaps, didn't see any chummers on board.
Stayed at a nice motel on a beach, as long as the wife has a beach I can fish, excellent trade off, a Tiki Bar and restaurant next door and also a nice Tiki Bar just before the seven mile bridge with a swimming pool and Tiki Bar at pool side.
