ADVERTISE HERE

Well once again it was great to get out there to the dry tortugas with the yankee capts. Had a great drive with my friend Carlos over to the mothership. We left about 12pm and the first order of the day was to get some fresh ballyhoo. I called key largo fisheries, no dice so we stopped at the yellowbait house in largo and got us some. After that we took some quick lunch. Then I get a call from Rob (Snookaddict) that he was leaving work at 5pm and heading down with 2 rods and a dream, wow. After that news Me and Carlos headed down to no name to catch some pins. We got to the Yankee capts about 8pm and met some familiar faces and some new ones. I met up with spinfreak, hoogan, Jarvis, and Mandingo, sorry if I forgot some one else.

There were good numbers of fish caught, There were about 30 guys on the boat. A decent number of muttons, quite a few red snapper, a few differnt types of grouper mixed in, a few kingfish, lots of mahi, and a few other odds and ends. If you put in the time you went home with good fish

The weather was very good, calm seas with a slight breeze, cant get much better then it was.

I got 5 big muttons , 1 Scamp Grouper, couple of Mahi ,few yellow eyes & other odds and ends.

I won the pool with a nice kingfish, Woody and Jarvis gave me a ran for my money, it was close

I want to thank the yankee capt crew for putting us on good fishing with great service and value

I did not take much pictures, but here is one with a nice pair at home
