Exclusive Report

Pete Donnelly, of Key Colony Beach FL and Spring Lake NJ, hosted a group of friends visiting from the Jersey Shore for a day of fishing with SeaSquared.

The original intent was to go to the far Gulf in search of cobia. However, due to the 30-40 knot winds, the course was changed and the group went for a half day of shark fishing instead.

The waters were alive with sharks. There were so many that, on more than on occassion, they were hooked up to one when the bait slid up the line and skimmed across the surface only to be snatched by another shark. The result was a loss of both fish.

In all the group caught ten lemon sharks, ranging from five to seven feet in length. All were released unharmed. Along on the trip with Pete were his son-in-law Mike Nitto, Mike's dad and brother, both named Ron, and family friend Art Acquaviva.

Exclusive Report: 11-18-09
Marathon locals Jim McDermott (L) and John Yaquinto enjoyed a half day of reef fishing with SeaSquared Charters.

Conditions were excellent with wind and current running in the same direction. There was a nice breeze out of the northeast and the visability at 50 feet was crystal clear.

The yellowtail were thick and responded quickly. The guys lost a couple of the larger 'tails to goliath grouper and a big king mackerel. They got their limit of 16-17 inch yellowtail in about 90 minutes. It was Jim's first experience yellowtailing, and it certainly will not be his last!

There was tons of bait fish - ballyhoo and speedos - but they saw no sailfish.
