Marathon Wreck Fishing: African Pompano Action with Captain Johnny

One for the books today! Anita and her crew joined us for some spring fishing action, heading out early morning under clear conditions throughout the day. The weather stayed awesome as we worked the waters around Marathon with Johnny Maddox Charters Papa 31, running our 6 Hour Offshore Action with Captain Johnny Maddox – A Morning Trip for All Skill Levels.

Once the stage was set, we focused our efforts on wreck fishing using a combination of trolling, drift fishing, and jigging techniques. The crew managed to hook up with African Pompano, Yellowtail Snapper and Sharks during our time on the water. Marathon's reef and wreck structure provides excellent opportunities for this type of fishing - the combination of current breaks and baitfish concentrations around these underwater features makes it prime territory for working multiple techniques effectively. We wrapped up the trip with tight lines and good action all around!
