We started out the day at Looe Key and finished our boating day by fishing out past Tarpon Belly.

This time Heidi and Greg joined us for the trip out to the reef. We also invited our neighbors, Bill and Gail. They wanted to follow us out in their boat since they are not as familiar with the waters here.
