点评:Went off-shore fishing with my family (ages 11 to 60) with Captain Logan (see pic). We were 17 miles out from Cocoa Beach. First of all, Logan put out a net and caught a bunch of little fish that we could use as bait. They have a big cooler of Atlantic ocean water for them to swim around in until needed. We came upon a group of dolphins, perhaps around 6 to 10 all around the boat, and Logan stopped the boat so that we could get pictures to our heart’s content. The boat only teetered once back-and-forth for about eight seconds, when we got parallel to another boat’s waves. (It was fun!) Once we got about 17 miles out, Logan put the bait fish on two poles, and then we waited. The first fish was caught within the first three minutes. The rest were spaced out about every 10 or 15 minutes. We all got to reel in a good size fish, but let me tell you, even with only a 2 1/2 or 3 foot long fish, it takes a lot of effort to reel in! It could take five or 10 minutes! And when someone gets too tired to keep reeling, we would hand it off to someone else who wanted to do the reeling for a little while. Our trip started at 6:20 am, so we got to see a nice sunrise! I think we got back between noon and 1 PM, and then Logan filleted the fish for us, and we took about 4 pounds of mahi over to a nearby restaurant, Grills Seafood Deck, and for about $10 per person, they cooked the fish for us, and served it to us as tacos. They will make it up, however you want. It tasted great! This fishing trip was the highlight of our trip to Florida! We caught mahi, barracuda, and kingfish, and nearly caught a shark and a sailfish. Keep your eyes out for how colorful they are in the water, versus how quickly they turn to yellow once they get in the cooler of ice. They also provide a huge cooler of ice for you to put your lunch and drinks in. You can bring backpacks and put them down in the hold, where the little bathroom is.
