Our old buddy Hubble Keller overcame obstacles this week to make his fishing dreams come true.
He had members of his posse cancel on him last minutes, plus his son caught a little bug that left him on the sidelines briefly.
But these Florida anglers weren’t going down without a fight, and on their last day in town they lit up the scorecard with five super Sailfish releases.
Fantastic work by this legendary angler.
“Rooster fish mania!” writes Ed Smith. “Went out with Carlos and Juan Carlos on the Discoverer today, made bait and turned every bait into a fish.”
“Here are a few of the better ones. Plus a few shots of the tools used today, raised a marlin and sail fish off shore.”
“Was great fishing with Carlos again!”
Ashley Sheppard brought the family along for a fun day of inshore fishing on the Explorer.
This sweet Yellowtail Snapper was the highlight of the haul. Great work by this posse of youngsters.
Dean McPhearson and his crew joined the Wanderer for an offshore hunt and scored a pair of wonderful Sailfish releases on their 6.5 hour trip.
