I was just up from Marathon at Tavenier, in between Islamorada and Largo. We got 52 lobster and scratched up pretty good. We are already planning next years trip.

I'd like to see the 100fpm windlass in action.

Most important tip: Be on the first ones on the water. By 9 am all the good places are wiped out.
