MARCH 10, 2020
I'm starting to hear plenty of noise about a virus that is riddling the
globe.  I'm fairly certain that I am late to the game with this
discovery as my wife just told me that it has been in the news since
January and I have just been to busy to pay attention.

There is an overwhelming migration of fish on the edge of the reef
right now in Islamorada. The blackfin tuna are plentiful in shallow
water near the reef’s edge. A Key factor to remember would be that the
temperature of the ocean water often dictates the depth of the tuna.

Every year, someone books a charter on Valentines Day and I am dumb

enough to think my wife doesn’t care. You guys know I don’t play

favorites but when it comes to flexing some days on the calendar to

accommodate the travel limitations of a good customer, you can count

me in every time!  Besides being our continuous commitment to customer

service, we don’t ever want to pass up the opportunity to slay some

yellow tail snapper!
As the charter fleet in the Florida Keys continue to dodge passing
cold fronts, the snapper seem to be abnormally large for this time of
year. Aside from their abnormal girth, the snapper are also in
relatively shallow water on the reef.  If you find a weather window
that allows you to get on the reef, don’t miss the opportunity! When
thinking about key factors to remember, find a steady current and you
can never have too much chum!

There is never a time where I don’t chuckle a little (on the inside)
when reminiscing with a client about a previous trip. Many times it is
surprising even to me that I remember specific moments that you guys
take away with you when leaving our boat! Those memories that are
created aren’t just for you, welcome to our family!

Sooo... It has been a while since I have posted a report, for that I
apologize! There has been significant progress in our business, with a
new boat that has finally been completely “Dialed In” for our fishing
needs - and at the same time - keeping a steady schedule of charters,
slaying the fish and putting smiles on customer’s faces who work all
year long to make wonderful memories with us!  The added features on
our beautiful fishing machine helps us continue to bring the newest
technology to our customers while they benefit in the form of epic
fishing!

Finding our place in the year 2020, we begin the year with a run of
phenomenal fishing, as the sailfishing is on point and the seasonal
conditions push most of the fishery from “offshore” to “nearshore” -
which makes for a speedy commute to the fishing grounds! While the
bait moves with the wind, we often find the targeted species running
shallow to feed and returning to the depths thereafter. The blackfin
tuna, wahoo and kingfish have been running along the edge of the reef
and found to be abnormally larger than we usually find them.  On the
flipside, the bottom fishing has been producing some gigantic snapper,
grouper and other scalywags!

My intention is to make certain I keep a steady flow of information
that relates to the fishery and our recent findings in Islamorada.
However, as many of you know, sometimes “life” gets in the way of
sitting down and blogging... With that said, daily on-goings don’t
prevent me from answering the phone or speaking to someone at the
dock. I have made a tremendous effort to ensure that anyone who is
interested can get in touch with me. I may not answer the phone
immediately if I am offshore or out of range but I will ALWAYS
immediately return a text, email or voicemail before the end of my
day! In short, I AM ACCESSIBLE TO YOU and without YOU, there would be
no Selfish Charter Fishing - and for that, I thank each and every one
of my current and future customers!!!
