First time won't be the last time!

Jean Delpy, from Novi MI, treated his extended family to a vacation in Marathon Florida Keys and included some fishing with SeaSquared Charters.

We hit the reef for some good rod-bending action on snapper and grouper. The crew made quick work of six-pound mangrove snapper and a bunch of yellowtail snapper in the 13- to 18-inch range.

Not only was it was Justine Down’s first trip to the Keys, but it was her first time ocean fishing! You’d never know it by the 18-pound black grouper she hauled into the boat! It was one of two blacks caught by the group.
