The Capt. Pips team strikes again with this award winning catch. The "run & gun" method is what it took to find big fish Thursday. Schoolies were on the reef and a few were scattered at the edge of the gulf stream but the gaffers were well offshore in 1500 to 3000 feet. The Campbells' will eat more than soup for the next few months. Pictured L-R; 1st mate David, Rosey, Capt. Gator, Ron Campbell.
Wahoo were the big game fish of the day for Capt. Bobby Manske along with some schoolies and triple tail.
It does not matter where you are from or what kind of fish you usually catch, you have had a great day on the water when you bring in a catch like this (we released half as many as we brought home). Come to the Florida Keys and join in on the excitement.

A native Floridian (Panama City, Fl.) that grew up entertaining vacationers and is still loving every minute of it. Nothing is more fun than seeing you catch that fish of a lifetime, whether it be a tropy fish or a rare species. Got my captain's license in 1963 and still get "buck fever" when we catch a fish. Been fishing the keys full time for 6 years and vacationed here for 10 years prior to moving here. 3 children, 2 grand children and a wonderful wife of 30 years. Absolutely living the dream in Paradise.
