I’m heading over Saturday for a week of fishing on my 2860. Is there anything that I need to look out for? We will be staying in Marathon. We will be on the road all day Saturday hopefully arriving just before dark.
If if anyone is around, give me a shout. Maybe we can hook up for fishing or drinks.

Just look out for speed traps in the Keys. Cops suck down there. Have a great vacation.

Hey Richard. Good luck with the long haul down to the keys.
Some dolphin have started to show up so its probably worth running around for them some. The blackfin tuna bite has been good in the late afternoon. Mutton have been on and off but when they are on its really good. Mangrove snapper should be showing up any day now.
I have been out a handful of times in the last few weeks and got a mutton each time along with some dolphin, black fin tuna and kings. Full moon is monday the 17th so leading up to that should be the peak of the mutton spawn. Im planning to head over to Bimini sometime between the 14-17 for the mutton spawn. If you are interested in running over let me know.
If you need any help while you're down here you have my number.

Hey Richard, have a safe drive down here. Will be at my house this weekend with my son's wife family for a fathers day get together, coming back to Miami by the end of the day on Sunday. Have a Dolphin tournament next Saturday the 22nd with the Upper Keys Fishing Club. I don't have any numbers for the Marathon area, but if you need something up Islamorada, let me know. Stay safe and good luck with your fishing.

so I was in little matecumbe last week /port Antigua in the Islamorada area on a guys trip .Blackfin were plentiful but on the smaller side and scattered dolphin.There was a boat at the area sandbar named Pepe but I think it was a key west.The boat was on a lift in the main Chanel to Port Antigua and the dock had largeTrump flags up.Just curious if Pepe from the forum ever ran across Pepe from Port Antigua ?
