xmas day fishing

[Hook]

The Christmas tradition my friends in Key West have, is to get together and have a big grill out. Steaks, seafood, beer, wine etc. After a few drinks, we realized that fish was missing from the menu. After some creative excuses to significant others about the need for fish, we set off for a couple of hours.

The usual suspects
