Staff Sargent Mr. Jason Cubero is all ears:Speaking of ready... Boy! Are we ever ready for this:We will be fishing for over 24 hours. Rest is essential:But trolling is ever so exciting:

He is anxiously awaiting High School. Jacob not only fishes, but loves to hunt. His favorite weapon... The mighty 45-70. Graduate from High School? You had better believe it. To honor the event, Dad has promised a caribou hunt.  Way to go, Son, way to go:When you are fishing 100 miles off Madeira Beach, Florida, even the porgy's are a 'little' on the LARGE size:June welcomes the opening of American Red Snapper, and Gag Grouper season. ARS we be open from 6/1 until 8/2; Gag Grouper will remain open for the remainder of the year.Pay Back Time:Staff sergeant, Mr. Jason Cubero, Lithia, Florida, has served our country for the last 18 years. What an honor having this American Hero fishing with us. Mr. Cubero is stationed at MacDill Air force base. This brings back many memories. In the fifties B-52 were stationed at MacDill.
