The Mike and Brian Fishing Day

Mike and Brian are down from Maryland for some more fishing with Capt. Dallas. Last year, Mike had some angling issues.  He could hook fish, but not all that many of the big one wanted to pose for the camera.  After spending a little time on Ebay, he has a few new weapons for the fish.

So this year, Mike actually has fish dinner to go with his fish stories.  A 37 pound Cobia on his 20 pound level wind with brand new Ugly stick.

Brain, did catch a few mackerel on the fly rod which was his main goal, but I forgot to take pictures of him with his fly rod caught fish.
I did snap a picture of Brian with one pretty dang big green puffer fish.  So the gang caught fish and had fun.  The Bay Spanish bite is still a little iffy.  They are still partial to shrimp which means lots of blue runners, blue fish and small stuff that also are partial to shrimp.  But is is still worth a trip since you never know who will show up in the slick.

Marathon in the Florida Keys should be your next fishing vacation destination. Join us for charter fishing, fishing guide trips or our fishing 101 so you can fish on your own with better success.

 Tight lines,

 Capt. Dallas

    Dallas! Once again, thanks for the great trip. Every year, Mike and I learn many new things: this year, it was the importance of heavier wire leader and "always have a pinfish out on a float rig". Outstanding boat handling during the cobia fight, and you were a matador with the gaff.

    An interesting trip as always. Charlie Browns and giant powerful puffer fish....who thought up these goofy creatures?

    Take care of yourself,

    Brian
