The KeyZ • Volume 2

[PapaDave]

Which of the KeyZ were you at?

That area is where I grew up.

Try going for the mutton snapper in the near shore reefs, they will rip your lips off. The mangrove snapper hang out in the, mangroves, where else. Snook do also, and also favor some of the channels. Tarpon - the flats and channels. try out Card Sound Bridge during tarpon season, you will find them by watching for the mullet schools going airborne.

Don't forget to catch some shrimp when they are running and get a snorkel for catching lobster.

There's a lot I miss about that place.

Super stoked for you Wade. Soon enough, people will be asking for the fishing guide named...Big Wade! Food looks great. Jim

Great OTW video Wade. Glad to see you Newlyweds having a great time!

I may have missed a photo but Did you actually fish on this trip? Amazing looking food though. Snook do live closer to SD than the Keys. Mike

All of ‘em, Dave! Been going back to Florida almost every year since I was knee high to a grasshopper..I lived down in Miami for the College years and then some..
We briefly discussed our Florida adventures a while back when we were targeting those Corvinas!

Yes, almost the entire time we were floating. Yes thankfully Snook are found at quite a few locations, but unfortunately I don’t have property there yet..
My Grandfather that taught me how to fish & also one of the places I visited as a child every year went to me upon his passing. I have kept the ol’ fishing lodge as it is also within close distance to my parents place too.

Z-Man has a NEW heavier grade XPS Chatterbait design coming out in a couple months..I think they are going to be perfect for Saltwater Bass & Halis..
Increased collar for skirts and trailers. Electroplated blades, Z-Tie EZ Skirts, Mustad UltraPoint hooks & a super strong quick-clip line tie.
Can’t wait to take them to the Islands..

Bluefish were really wackin’ the Chatterbait.



It’s never too skinny for the PA..
