Ladies hook 210 fish at Naples with A&B Charters! In one day!
What a day! 130 fish kept including yellowtail, lane, mangrove snappers, more, 2 keeper groupers and several groupers released just 1/2 inch shy of keeper size! 80 fish released. The boat with 8 ladies from all over Florida went out 30 miles. 2 ft. seas and sunny. The captain and mate took good care of us, special thanks to A&B Charters, charter the boat for yourself or grab a spot on their regular charters. A full day on the west coast of FL makes the difference to get out to the big fish!

What they like and their barriers. LLGF works to help them through the constraints to reach out to this underserved community!
