Robin and I spent Father’s Day generally goofing off. We put the top up on the lil woody and scooted out to the Atlantic to snorkel on some big coral heads.
On our way we went through some new territory and cut through the pass at cooks island. A couple cool things – it cuts off about 3 miles, it dumps you in the Atlantic by Beyoncé’s house, and most important I only ran aground once!
Once through cook island pass you are in a bunch of big coral heads that are supposedly full of hogfish. Well I saw one 6 inch hogfish, but the water was gin clear and the coral beautiful! Look at this handsome devil!
Thunderstorms forced us to go to our backup plan, so we ran down thru no name bridge and over to rocky channel. We caught a bunch of snapper throwing gulps, only one cooler worthy credit to robin.
Onward we went and ended circumnavigating big pine to the east and north. Long way on the lil woody! Took some pictures of the sights. Ended up with 1 more snapper in the cooler, this time mine!
Great day to be in the keys!
