| First week I went fishing with Fred in Venice, Florida, and we caught some nice fish. | |||
My first grouper of the trip |
They're getting bigger |
I thought I'd best let Fred catch one |
Wow, what a fight. This 30" Bonito (little tunny) wore me out. |
Fred catches a nice 40" King Mackeral (okay it was the big fish of the week, but the Tuna fights better) |
The big 24" Grouper, caught on my rod, I let Fred set the hook then I had to haul him in |
So I thought I would let Fred have a picture holding him as well |
Wow, another Bonito caught on the bottom on my light rod |
They really put up a nice fight |
|||
| Now it's off to Marco Island, Florida to join my family. | |||
I sent Richard to find the fish for me |
That's him under the water |
He thinks he's found four |
Good job Rich as I land this nice Jack |
| Fishing with Fred so much fun, I took my boys up for a day. | |||
Andrew starts of with a nice Grouper |
Richard soon gets in the swing of things, after catching 5 bait fish on 1 rod |
Andrew gets a bigger fish, boy does he groan when he's pulling them in |
Richard get's in the groove and catches 4 within about 5 minutes on the same bait |
Fred thinks he's won the day with a 21 1/2" Grouper |
Sorry Fred, experience shows in the end as I pull this '22 1/2" big boy' in on my light rod and declare myself the champion |
||
| Back at Marco Island, the girls don't want to be outdone. | |||
Sarah fights what we think is a sting ray at first |
But ends up pulling in this nice Jack |
Judy lands this Spanish Mackeral |
And also pulled in a Sting Ray, 2 snapper, 1 catfish and 2 more mackeral |
I catch a nice LadyFish off the rocks |
And Sarah thinks she's at the Poker table, this Jack will make a nice pair |
All this hard work, no wonder I'm tired |
A nice sunset to round off a good vacation |
