Champagne Sunset Sail with Fury –
It might not have been the best Sunset I have ever seen but I still had a blast! Nothing beats being out on a boat with some fun music and a few adult beverages. Oh wait yes I know what does! Looking off the bow of the boat and watching 4 or 5 dolphins swimming in front of you.
I had the pleasure of going out with Captain Grif a few days ago from Endless Summer Charters. It was so much FUN I can’t wait to do it again. First we went to a fairly shallow spot to try and catch some sharks … Yes! I said SHARKS! Rebecca reeled one in and I was happy to be the official tour photographer. The 3 or 4 of them that were under the boat made me a little nervous.
Grif is a pro at getting the hook out of the sharks mouth. We then headed over to a spot called Boca Grande that had an old shipwreck sticking out of the water. Grif said he thinks it was a ship from WWII.
We changed up our bait a little bit and started fishing for some Jew fish aka Goliath Grouper … sadly all I caught were some tiny little guys that we couldn’t even eat for dinner. I think it was Rebecca’s fishing day since she also caught a Mutton Snapper that was at least 5 pounds. He came back with us for dinner and man was it fresh and yummy. I don’t think I have ever caught a fish, filleted it and then had it cooked within the same afternoon.
I can’t say that I am the most fond of fish. We have a few good stories but I prefer them on my plate already cut up and sometimes cooked. Something about the slime and them being alive. But none the less I love to eat them!
Whenever I get the chance to go out on the water I jump on it. Well I kinda jump in too. Its always a lot of fun and I am so excited about the different types of fish and coral I get to see.
