The Christmas tradition my friends in Key West have, is to get together and have a big grill out. Steaks, seafood, beer, wine etc. After a few drinks, we realized that fish was missing from the menu. After some creative excuses to significant others about the need for fish, we set off for a couple of hours.

The usual suspects




At 82 degrees, it doesn't feel like xmas



Live bait is the way to go



A good toss



Actually, a real good toss



We weren't the only ones escaping



The reefs coming up



The mackerel and yellowtail were waiting for us



It's been two hours, better head back before things get testy



a good cruising pace



This will go good with the shrimp and lobster



now the work starts



Thats all
