A new camera!

Alas, I finally got a new camera. I haven’t messed around with the settings yet, but so far so good.

Here are a few photographs from yesterday. The morning began with my in-laws fishing a wreck off KCB. In the end we caught one keeper mutton, one permit, and lost several fish to sharks, including a nice pink I saw get eaten 20 feet from the boat!.  We also saw a monster hammerhead cruising the surface as well as the biggest bull shark I’ve ever seen! It’s almost not even worth fishing this wreck right now. I think I’ll wait a while before heading back.

Next up on the day was tarpon fishing with Captain Ty Price. We headed to Long Key Bridge but unfortunately the bite was not on yesterday. We did manage to catch a real nice mangrove snapper in the 3-4 pound range though that was just eaten about 15 minutes ago. I highly recommend cajun-fried snapper dipper in cheddar/buffalo/ranch/cream cheese sauce. It was not very healthy, but holy %&^* it was good!

Thanks for taking us out Ty. We almost caught a backwards inshore slam (see below).

Baby bonefish caught in the mullet net. Almost thought he was a mullet at first.
