Not a whole lot to report this week from down here in the Keys. The weather got us most of the week….winds 25 and gusty…not much fun. However, we did fish later in the week, the water is still gin clear and very little current which as you have learned by now, is not good. We had to put our time in and lots of hard work but we managed to put a nice catch together each day. The yellowtails are a little bit smaller now with all the spawning going on and with the water so clear they really don’t like to play. We also caught a few groupers on live cigar minnows. Yesterday and today we spent the mornings offshore catching some schoolie dolphin 3 to 8lbs get table fare. The groups have all been happy and have had plenty of fresh fish to eat. Capt. Jeff has done a few trips in the evening for Tarpons and has had several great bites and even managed to capture a few. This should do nothing but get better as the season has just begun.
