A few cool pics from this week in the middle Florida Keys. Although, we don't target blue marlin, we catch one now and then fishing for other species. This little blue ate a wahoo lure, and spent more time in the air than in the water during the fight.

The last pic is my nephew with a really nice genuine red snapper. Unfortunately, catch and release only on them this time of year.

Great fortune to catch a Marlin. One day....

Looks like a great time to me. Congrats Bruce

Red Snapper is the best eating fish in the Gulf of Mexico!

I fish with an old buddy of mine who is still in the charter business full time. He owns a 45' custom Number #1, and a 24' open fisherman. He keeps both boats behind his house in Tavernier. He is one canal in from Tavernier Creek ocean-side.

I would highly recommend him to anyone coming down to the Keys looking for a great day on the water. Anyone interested can PM me for his contact info.
 
Awesome! Looks like fun times! Deep Sea fishing is definitely on the bucket list for us.
 
Man that is a big fish!

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Thanks .
