I had a great Fathers Day weekend fishing with my family and dinner on Saturday because I was booked on Fathers Day. This is part of being a guide people like to get away on the holidays. I can always say no but its usually good clients.
This Fathers Day I spent it with Robert Chang and his kids Nate and Lilly. The weather was really iffy on the ride in but it cleared for a couple hours. We started out with netting mullet and having a Tarpon try to eat it one but wasn’t big enough. Nate caught a couple nice fish It just happens to be on a custom kids Biscayne rod I had made from a broken rod. The rod is 5 feet long and makes every fish feel like a giant. Lilly caught a nice Snook as their dad kept looking for the big one. The sky was getting dark and we were having to move around and that’s when I found the fish. We tried to hold on but it was racing across the flat and we had to go. We dodged the storms for the next hour and finally called it.
Today I am part of a 2 boat Trip, with Capt Mike Hutchinson. We had Felipe and Alfonso and their sons. We ran over from Key Largo and fish the Snake Bite area. It started out slow but really turned on when the tide changed. They caught Snook after Snook until the Sharks moved in. This worked out because they wanted to catch them. We were side by side and just non stop . Most of the Sharks were Lemons in the 30 - 50 Lb. range. They had to have 20 or so fish between them mean while we were still catching a few Snook and Trout. It was getting late and had a long ride back.
