Oct. 17-19 Keys event in Islamorada with Fishing Fever fun tournament Results!

Wow what a weekend of learning and fishing! The ladies learned so much from Capts. Rob Modys, Lee Lavery, Jeanne Towne and Betty Bauman! Plus the FWC sent two female officers to talk about conservation and help the ladies with hands-on fishing skills with other captains such as Barry Cuda Nicholls, Kyle Gabor and Scott Ray! What a fun party on Friday and on Saturday we went to Islamorada Moose to hear marine artist Pasta Pantaleo's band - even Rob Modys was playing too!

Ladies fished inshore and offshore. It was windy on Friday and on Sunday the rain came - all boats caught fish! Penn Combos were awarded to the top fish as well as famous art prints. Then we had the ticket drawing so most ladies went home with a prize! Check out the links below for photos etc. We're still working on some videos for Facebook and Instagram Ladies, Let's Go Fishing page. Please like and comment!
