Had a great day in the surrounding waters of Key West this Saturday! After cruising a couple more miles past the reef the water seemed fishy. With in the first half hour of baits being in the water we had our first black fin tuna on and in the fish box. The rest of the 4 hour trip seemed to fly with tuna biting in a steady fashion. After the trip my customers invited me to eat the catch with them at a local restaurant. Nothing like fresh tuna!

Growing up, I always looked forward to all water activities - whether it was swimming, scuba diving or fishing. I visited Key West and was mesmerized by the warm weather, laid-back lifestyle and the beautiful waters - where the ocean meets the gulf. I packed-up my things and moved to the southernmost city.
At first, I held multiple jobs got on the water as often as I could. I was fortunate to have some local watermen take me under their wings and show me the art and science of offshore fishing. I quickly progressed from deck hand, to mate, to captain. It was a great experience and I still help them out to this day.
Nowadays, I still love fishing and spend most of my free time fishing. I will go out and try different techniques or try to find new spots. In the slower season, I spend much of my time under the water studying the fish behavior and how they are affected with the tides and moon phase. As I progress as a captain and angler, I always try to push myself into more challenging situations.
