THE STREAK IS OVER!!!!

Yes! My no fishing streak is over! I am very sorry for not fishing and updating the blog, but I was busy. But now, It's over! I went fishing and it was so fun! Today I went on a boat that I have never been on before..... THE REWARD FLEET. Doda (aunt) Annette left at 9:00 AM and unlike other boats, It only took a matter of minutes to get out on the ocean. Once we arrived at the fishing spot, people were catching fish but we weren't. we didn't catch a fish until we got to the next stop. one we got there, It wasn't that long before we caught a Porgy! By then we were motivated, but fishing was still slow. We had been to many spots without catching any fish. But soon enough, we were catching fish left and right. I had now decided to use a plug, a ballyhoo that has it's head and tail come off but only the fin-looking part of the tail because the part next to it is hard and stable so when you hook it there it won't fall off. The plug really helped. Since then, we had caught three snappers (we kept two) a sandtile fish, and a bright red fish that had ink. We also caught another snapper even though we didn't bring it up because it touched the boat. The IGFA fishing rules state that if the fish touches the boat or dock that you are fishing on, you get credit for the catch. That was one fun day!

                            LET'S REVEW

  • Plugs are ballyhoos thats head and tail are cut off but only the fin part of the tail because the part next to it is stable and when you hook it there it won't fall off.
  • The IGFA fishing rules say that if the fish touches the structure that you are fishing on, you get credit for the catch.
  • The Reward Fleet is awesome, and you can choose a plug squid, or a full Ballyhoo as bait. It leaves from Miami Beach at 9:00AM and 1:00PM daily, and have 8:00PM trips on wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
