After the scuba dive, we headed back to the house and
settled our equilibrium and bellies a bit. When we arrived, the boys had just
gotten back to the house after dropping the boat at the boat ramp. They were
getting all the fishing and spearing gear together on the boat. Both LT and
Lane headed out for around two hours before coming back. They had caught all
kinds of fish.
Later in the day, I headed out with both of the boys we
fished until around 7pm. The water had finally laid down and was still. Lane
took us around to Crane Point and also to one of the piers where there was a big
drop off. Unfortunately, the water was somewhat murky. Lane cast-netted and caught
a net full of green backs, glass minnows, and pin fish. Near the end of coming
back towards the house, we fished at the entrance of the channel right by
Sombrero beach for about an hour or so. All of us caught a handful of fish. I
managed to hook into a tarpon only to lose him a little later. Still it was a
rush to hook on.
Back at the house the ladies were busy cooking away. They
were putting together a boil for about 16 lobster tails the boys had caught
earlier. Dinner was amazing and the lobsters were on point. I could eat like
this every day. The rest of the evening was relaxing and some fishing. LT
almost hooked into a 3-4 foot nurse shark which was circling around our dock
hoping to sink its teeth into one of the baby barracudas swimming around.
