Happy Saturday!!
The Wishes crew started the day with riding bikes to The Stuffed Pig for breakfast. As you can see by the pictures we all loved it and ate good 🙂
After breakfast we rode our bikes back to the boat. Mike got the fishing pole’s ready while the girls took the dogs out to go potty. Jen got a Lyft to come pick us up at the marina. Our Lyft driver Amy was so so sweet, she gave Jen her number in case we needed a ride during our time here in Marathon.
We arrived at The. Marathon Lady with enough time to check in and claim some good spots on the boat. The boat was clean and they provided weights and hooks. Mike got the lines ready, and we waited for the boat to head out. We pulled out of the dock at 1:30, and they went over a few safety things on our way out. After about a 45 minute calm ride off shore we made it to our first fishing spot. We went to about 5 different spots while out there. The crew was great, they were super helpful and funny. It was so much fun! In total we caught about 20 fish total and 15 keepers. We made it back to the dock around 5:30 and the crew sorted out everyones fish and got to cleaning. They cleaned the fish right there for you and bagged it up. When cutting the fish the pelicans surrounded the crew. They get fed the scrapes. A few of the pelicans like to hangout on the roof of the building and the crew with throw them scraps. It’s our new favorite pelican story…. second to the boy getting attacked in Fort Myers Beach lol
We called Amy and she came and picked us up and brought us back to Faro Blanco. She’s the best!
Mike cooked about half of the fish from today for dinner. He pan seared it with lemon and butter and cooked rice and some butternut squash to go with. Jen gets to the cook the other half another day… Who will cook it best??? We will keep you posted 🙂
