lets go spear some fish & we all became seahunters

The sea laid down and off we went to a spot that allowed us to spear fish. We saw a huge ocean trigger who swam by than a nurse shark went by and I followed him for a bit. I enjoy swimming with the big fish they make for good company. Next we saw a sting ray and swam with him for a short bit, but they can swim really fast. Later we put out the rods and caught a bunch of fish before we headed in I grabbed my spear gun and off I went almost immediately, lucking out a school of mackerel passing right in front of me and I took my shot and hit him but it just nicked him. A few minutes later I came across a bunch of jacks and this tine I made a nice shot and got him right in the head, wow he swam violently impaled with my spear in circles. The barracudas were around and they saw my kill and started to charge him, I quickly pulled in the line attached to the spear, held my spear above the water and headed back to the yacht. Just ate it a few minutes ago, ummm good, come catch or spear some fish with me, call now.

blue water, the gulf stream was near, great snorkel

We had a nice snorkel, made a short video clip for you. Fishing was great one of the highlights was a grouper that ate are bait fish and than a bigger grouper ate him, finally this two tailed fish came apart and two happy groupers briskly swam opposite ways both to live another day.

hungrily we all attained increadable ocean adventure

Deadliest catch, Key West I said to my shipmates, as a blast of warm water sprayed my face while at the helm on the bridge of the Delphine. Yes, it was a day of extreme rocking, fortunately we were able to get a good snorkel in the morning and in the afternoon. The gulf stream is in close to the shore right NOW making the water nice and blue. One of the highlights was swimming with a school of mackerel, they are usually quite timid, but today they let me hang out like I was a fellow mackerel.

to sea we all looked happily blue sky warm calm sea

Had some returned customers back to take another adventure aboard the Delphine. The water was clear, calm and nice & warm, what you would expect of America's Caribbean in November. We swam the reef and saw a black grouper that looked white and a queen angel seemed to be hanging out playing with one another. It was a nice swim around, the usual crowd of fish seemed to be about. Later we through out the chum and the reels did some screaming. We brought in 5 or so fish, the big fish however we did not land, so no huge fish pics today.

landed a small hammerhead in the channel

We caught over 20 fish, lots of happy faces as we slew fish left and right. A young man of seven was doing a great job setting the hook on the frenzied hungry fish one.happy shipmate, lands tasty shark dinner t the end of the channel,off they went for a restaurant, most here in key west will cook your catch

great all the ocean laid flat bluewater sorrounded us

It was the perfect day, if you could have asked for such a day this would have been it. We saw turtles, dolphins, nurse sharks, ocean trigger fish, barracudas, just a plethora of fish. There were some many others that are too numerous to name, check out the Goliath grouper. We had an awesome time.CLICK ON PIC to enlarge

open up your mindl lets go for a wlld key west ride

The weather service said that these are the two best days this week so off we went, it made our day and we were joyed the blue water that was in because of the weather. Before we went into the reef for our adventure I gave my usual speech about the dangers of snorkeling which made my snorkelers stay close. Later there was a wild exciting stir amongst the snorkels, I heard later from the discription that it was a hammerhead that the snorkelers spotted. I said to my shipmates, I DID NOT SEE IT,ONE SNORKELERS SAID IT WAS A BONNET HEAD THEY ARE SMALLER, THE SAME FAMILY AS HAMMERHEADS. We dropped anchor in a calm spot and I looked at my shipmates and said, are you guys out of shock yet, let's fish. Wow, we sure did fill the bucket with 20 plus fish, a large fish eat our bait, but he won today, so we ended up just getting his picture on the surface as eat our live bait.
