Greeting once again from the "Sportsfishing Capital of the World" Islamorada, Key Largo and the Florida Keys fishing. Well the waters out in the Gulf have cooled down a bit and the Spanish Mackerel run has really started to heat up, an average four hour Charter nets up to 30 of these great fighting fish.
