Road Trip Key Marathon
« on: January 14, 2008, 04:54:18 PM »
 Booked a 4 pack Charter for a weekend of Fishing with Capt Jay in Marathon Keys.
www.charterfishingthekeys.com

Need to Fly down and Shot some Video for his Website ;)

Flying out of Ac on Feb 21th-26th with Capt Mike / Hareball / Capt John. I'm going solo while the others were forced to take their significant others ;D

I plan on setting up trips like this every year if not twice a year.  I'm looking for a web site to build in Alaska Next. t^  Who's Game?

Rest assure this will happen again. Next year we can secure more than one boat if others would like to join us t^

I have never fished out of NJ and Can't wait! t^

Sounds like fun!  When do you leave?  Florida weather seems that much better when it's 30 degrees  and slushy in NJ!  ::) 

Have a good trip and don't forget the sunscreen! ;D

Good Luck! t^

Under current Florida law all goliath gropuer must be released. In fact, they can not even be brought aboard a boat-therefore when you catch one under law some part of the fish must remain in the water as you remove the hook.

We were down in Marathon a few winters ago. Had a great time fishing and relaxing. Looking forward to when I can go next time.

May is kinda close.  My daughter is graduating from HS and we are taking her on a Disney Cruse in June.  Hey, can I troll off the back of one of those things?

Wouldn't that be a gas...

I am thinking about doing a 1/2 day bottom fishing while at Cast Away Cay, thats the Disney Island it is also called Abaco Island.  That should be fun, and something I have never done before.
