Just got back from a very fun week down in Long Key. Perfect weather and calm seas the entire time. Spent a lot of time trolling in 400'-600' which produced a bunch of mahi including some big ones. Went to the Marathon humps a couple days where the tuna bite was solid. Jumped in the bluewater a few times hoping to shoot something of size. Also spent time freediving and spearfishing in 25'-65'. Shot some mangroves and a cero mack. Saw grouper and a bunch of hogs but all too small.

Here is a VIDEO of some of the action:

Thanks! Most of the time we trolled a 6 line spread with skirted and naked ballyhoo with a billy bait thrown in the mix once in a while. The blue/white colors were hot this time.
