Decided to go offshore again today with my good buddy Caleb and this time, we reunited our old fishing team and brought our other buddy Darius with us on this adventure. We managed to catch some good keeper Trigger Fish, a nice keeper Amberjack, a TON of Red Snapper. We hooked up on one big fish that we just knew had to be a Wahoo but we weren't prepared with the proper tackle to land a fish that toothy and we lost him before we could even get a look. All in all, still a fantastic day. Plus we had dinner for all of our families, can't ask for much better than that. You can see all the images from the trip at http://fishhappenscharters.com.

Tight Lines,

Captain Chris
