skimmer > 12/17/2005 I just returned from Florida and have access to a high speed connection so I uploaded some more photos from the last week of fishing out of Marco Island. This shot and the one below are of a 300 pounds goliath grouper being brought to the boat aboard Captain Bob Herman's Captain Liver. This fish was trolled on a diving plug on an offshore piece. Just a note about this awesome fishing. The Shimano Tekota 600 LC reel is a must for accurate depth control using PowerPro Line and deep diving Mann's Magnum plugs. It's smooth, strong just the right piece of equipment for this fishing
skimmer > This is a better shot of the fish at boatside. These monsters can reach 700 pounds. They are protected and must be released.
skimmer > This is a real good shot of me and Bob with a couple of nice black grouper. This is the day that we trolled 18 grouper with 9 keepers. Captain Al Lorenzetti
skimmer > 12/13/2005 I fished with Wes Little today and we had a good time. It was a little cool and windy in the morning but it got much better as the day went on. We caught a couple of grouper on the troll. One was a throw back and one was a good fish at about 29 inches and 12 to 15 pounds. One of our fishing buddies Alan, had a good day with a couple of keeper grouper, a 100 pound tarpon and a 33 inch snook on the troll all on a piece out in the Gulf. We took a run south to White Horse Key looking for tarpon and permit but didn't connect. We did get a good report about tarpon and permit in another area so we will hit that tomorrow. Yesterday I didn't do a report but we only fished late in the afternoon after Wes flying in from NY. We caught a few jacks, mangrove snapper and a small snook. I forgot to mention that at the end of the day today while running back to Marco we ran across a huge school of bluefish from 1 to 3 pounds. We caught a bunch and headed for the barn. I think that tomorrow has the potential to be a good day of fishing. Captain Al Lorenzetti
skimmer > 12/9/2005 I am down in Florida, Marco Island, and fishing with my buddies Bob Herman, Alan and Bill. We had a great day today with perfect weather conditions. It was windless and about 85 degrees. We fished the 5 mile reef and trolled for grouper. I am new to this fishing but these guys have it pegged. We fished two trolling rods with Shimano Tekota line counter reels and magnum diving plugs. Power Pro line was a must. We also trolled two downrigger setups and they caught about as well as the straight trolling setups. We had 18 grouper with nine in the keeper range and a couple of fish in the teens. Here is Alan showing off a couple of nice ones. They hit like a freight train and it was excellent fishing. Tomorrow we are heading to the snapper grounds a little farther offshore. What a treat it is being down here and fishing with a great bunch of guys and catching some top quality fish. Captain Al Lorenzetti
skimmer > This was yesterday with a good size but only a juvenile Goliath Grouper caught out in the Gulf, probably somewhere around the Ten Thousand Islands or Gullivan bay. Captain Al Lorenzetti
