4 hour trip started with a medium speed troll, landed a bonita but nothing else big enough grabbed the lures. We switched gears to bottom fishing and snagged a keeper trigger, then decided to try to grab a shark for our groomsmen. It took less than 3 minutes and we had an estimated 250lb Sandbar shark bow’d up on the line.

Great day, great group! Not much bit on the speed troll, but the vermilion snappers and triggers were hot, along with some of the biggest hardtails I’ve ever seen. Final count (just for keepers) was 46 Mingo Snappers (Vermillion), 5 Triggerfish, and 2 Hardtails.

Had a great trip on 5/31 with a boatload of recent graduates (congratulations by the way)! We all had a great time fishing, crew and customers alike on our 5 hour AM trip. A great mess of fish was caught and kept, and another one sent back home. Regardless of the catch-and-releases, everyone had fun and there's one heck of a fish fry in the near future!
