Dolphin, Grouper, Snapper galore

I’ll be back home for a few weeks May 1st-16th taking a break from all the fishing here in the Keys and will want to keep my feet wet. If anyone needs a spot in the boat filled let me know. Got Citadel graduation on Saturday the 8th and a wedding Saturday the 14th but other than that my schedule is open and I want to fish. I’ve got gear and gas money.

I know the dolphin bite should be heating up so I want to get into some of that.

Got 7 dolphin, a big nasty cuda and some mangrove snapper today and a mess of yellowtail, big grouper and fat porgies yesterday. Good to have the dolphin finally showing up. Got into a mess of kings, half dozen nice blackfin, mutton, and skipjacks last week. Leaving the dock early tomorrow to go look for more of them dolphin.

Curious how far out you guys were? North or South?

Get out There!

What part of the keys were you in?

I’m in Summerland Key at MM 24. We were in 250-150 ft the other day for the dolphin. Went to 600 today and fished some beautiful rips and color changes with no luck. Found a half dozen schools of blackfin Wednesday but no takers. We’ve been working hard for these fish!
