CRAZY FUN!! Shore Fishing the SPORT FISHING CAPITAL OF THE WORLD!! Islamorada Florida

One of my favorite places in the USA to vacation! The Florida keys is beautiful all year long. I haven't been here in 10 years. We celebrated my 30th birthday in the keys. My brother Max asked me what I wanted to do for my 40th birthday. The keys was the top of my list. So we planned a last minute, week long trip to Islamorada FL. This trip was AMAZING and exactly what I needed. We went fishing everyday and celebrated all week long. This video we didn't have a charter planned so we did some fishing from shore. I'm so glad we did! It was an absolute BLAST catching these fish from shore. The topwater bite was intense!!

Timeshare at 75 mm and rental at 82mm never really tried the shore fishing just piers but it looks like you guys nailed it 🎣. I believe you when you spoke of those large shark big time. Last December 10foot hammerheads were destroying my rigs and it got expensive. Gonna pass on them this year. I subscribed to get some more tips for my trip. Tight lines 🎣🎣🍻

    By the time that last fish was released, there's a big chance that it swam off to die. The whole time it was out of the water it was suffocating. A large percentage of fish that are released die within a few minutes. If you're gonna kill it you may as well keep it and eat it.

But the fishing and migrations of species is unbelievable. I loved the place.
