Bonito are Back...

Written by 
A bit of a slow one, but we caught some grouper and bonito to save the day. I had Mishel on board and our plan was to catch a few more grouper for her final day of her three day Crystal River charter. The bite has been excellent the last few days for the gags, but today it just wasn't so. We trolled various rocks and ledges and were only able to come up with one keeper. The bonito are back on the scene harassing bait fish schools just offshore and we caught one just for fun. Bonito may not be good table fair, but they will definitely give your drag a work out. They are constantly on the move, so try to find out there direction and lead them accordingly if you would like to run one down. I can't thank you enough for these last few days of great fishing and I always look forward to fishing with you. Here's Mishel with a "poor man's tuna" a Crystal River Bonito... Capt. Dan
