Fishing Tip From Captain Shannon of the Miss Budweiser

Take the time to stop and catch live bait on your way offshore. Threadfin hering are around markers and hawk channel or catch live ballyhoo on top of the reef. As the Florida Keys has just had it's first cold front of the season, Sailfish & Blackfin Tuna will be showing up just off the reef edge.

No luck with the Sails? You can also drop the same baits to the bottom of a deep water structure such as rubble piles or wrecks to try and land black grouper.

Good Luck, Fish On!
