I got this one about 3 miles offshore about midway up the island. I found one school of bait out there with birds diving, and was REALLY hoping for some mackeral. Found his ugly mug instead. Trolled the fish haven out of gasparilla pass on the way in and picked up the 1 mackeral.

My back was fine, my forearms on the other hand were tired. All the back and forth between the rod and driving the boat to keep him out of the crab pots was a workout.
