Fish all the time at LOTO. Try to charter a boat every vacation we get a chance. Love it!! I have a sailfish, African pompano and a barracuda on my wall. Hopefully more soon.

Wow, so we have some fishermen out there Salmon, Bass,Beers, Bikinis...lol. You northern guys have a ton of White Marlin/Tuna offshore in the summer. I always wanted to do a salmon/Halibut trip in the Pacific NW. Would be a challenge for sure. I know Chris Cox from Envy goes offshore to the canyons with his guys sometimes. Burgess from Hulk is out over here.

Surprised that more of our brethren are not out on the water with a fishing rod... especially here in South Florida. The CC's are fast as many offshore boats nowadays. Those that haven't tried it.. do yourselves a favor... find a friend that fishes and split some gas money and get out there. Try and get on a tournament boat one weekend. Stripers, Marlin whatever and let us know how you do. Exciting stuff.

Chris, Really happy with the Jupiter when it gets bumpy. I've been demo-ing some new props from Merc on the Yamis that has made a HUGE difference cruise and top end. Call me and I'll give you the details

Alright Hogie!! now you're talking. Looks like some good trips there.

Yes, very into sportfishing. A lot more challenging when you try on your own, definitely a learning curve.

Glad you posted this, just got back from Hollywood (Miami) fishing with my Dad and Sister. We stink at it, but had a lot of fun taking our own boat and learning to troll out in big water.

Nice fish Hogie!

It's a long very expensive time consuming frustrating process trying to figure it out on your own. I would suggest finding a truly experienced friend or just hiring a mate for the day that knows the area. watch what and where he goes and try and duplicate. Start with bottom fishing or trolling then build on it.

The photo with the red grouper was a captain local to Madeira beach that was very good. We've fished key west a dozen times so I sure I hope I have a clue there.
