[Blue197320]

this is for everyone thats heading down to the keys on friday what time are you planning on getting there and whats your fishing plan?? i know my dad and i want to get alot of fishing time in since this is our first gathering and also first time in the keys with my boat. i know i wanted to do some night snapper fishing but am open to anything really.

I'll be down Thursday by noon. I plan to drop the boat in at Breezy Palms, rig up tackle and hang out.

I will be looking to fish Thursday and will be looking for ideas/crew. I found a lot of trolling lures for tuna and dolphin. Most of them are not rigged so if anyone has advice on how to rig jet heads, mold crafts etc I would really appreciate. Since the Tuna bite is hot, gotta hit that first thing either Fri am or Sat depending on the wind situation.

Capt. Brian I have never been on a 23 and would be happy to work the cockpit for you. I think we`re bringing too many boats as I am a single as well.I really don`t want to delegate the gaffing duties to Sam Colt. Bushwacker and I may tandem down Thurs and plan to return Mon. I too want to fish hard and have 80 bally rigs made up so far.I also have a nice artificial kit courtesy of Todd`s Lures , which I haven`t even used yet....Sorry Todd, but I am more of a live/ natural bait kinda guy, and still learning the new styles. I even got a butterfly jig recently.. Call me if you want to talk. 561 848 0808. @ Bargain Bob`s. Press 3 to speak w/ a human.

Did you ever notice how somewere about 10 miles south of Miami the stress gets sucked from your body and blood pressure drops 30 pts?

Sandy, I'll give you a call and we'll fish.

Anyone planning on diving? Were bringing tanks and a speargun just in case its niceenough to dive.

I was planning on doing some snorkeling at least one day. Fishing here at home is pretty good, so I can fish anytime. However the reefs in the Keys are a couple orders of magnitude better than anything around here, so definitely want to check them out!

Denny-That sounds good regarding the snorkeling. I would like to snorkel with the Jenan and the kids one of the days. Definately better areas down there than off Bradenton. .
