Hi all,
We're going to be in Key Largo over the holidays and are wondering about fishing options. We're not going to be able to take a lot of gear so would like advise on doing some offshore fishing on the cheap. I've read about some cruisers who use a hand line. This seems like a pretty good option. What do people use to real the line, just a large spool or something? We're renting a 23' center console boat with fish locker, bait well and side riggers. We're new to open ocean fishing so any advise would be welcome.
Also, any recommendations for things to go see in this area by boat. We're going to be doing some diving but would. Like advise on other things to do on the boat.
Thanks everyone. Love the forum and useful advise. We're currently land-locked but will be out there soon.
