Gone Fishin'

We escaped to Cedar Key, Florida with our friends Steve and Sue for a few days of fun and fishin'.  Their condo is situated on the Gulf Coast in the quaint fishing village of Cedar Key.  The village has a nice slow pace and is a treasure trove of Gulf views, wildlife and good food.

Here comes our ride! 

 

The four of us went fishing with Captain Jim on the "Saltwater Assassin." It was a foggy day in the Gulf with a bit of wind and choppy water, but we were dressed for it and eager to fish.

Captain Jim grew up in Cedar Key and knows all the best fishing holes in the Gulf.  He owns Saltwater Assassin Fishing Charters based in Cedar Key.  www.fishcedarkey.com/.  All of us caught fish with five "keepers" at 15 inches or longer.

Pleased with our catch.

 

Catch of the day - Sea Trout.

 

The day before we went out fishing, Captain Jim took a Canadian couple out, and they brought back a dozen Sea Trout.  We happened to be hanging out at the dock when the "Saltwater Assassin" returned, and the Canadian couple gave us their catch!  We came home with a total of seventeen fish.  Awesome!

Found this RV T-shirt for G in one of the shops.  Perfect.

 

A good time was had by all.  Thanks Steve and Sue!
