Well it has been very trying on the fishing front the last week in Islamorada FL. We tell it like it is and if its tough well it’s tough. We have been experiencing the coldest temperatures seen here since 1969.
Pretty Work has been able to find a few sails, mahi and a pick of Blackfins. The reef has just barely given up enough snappers for a dinner but thats about it. The water has been cold and gin clear. Things are looking like a warm up is coming so things should start picking up.

Lots of changes happening all around us. Migration is a very intriguing and educational experience, especially when you have the opportunity we have here in the Florida Keys. Both land and sea patterns are wild to witness. The land life brings out plenty of new bird life as the Gannets and several others continue their…
