Ryan Simmons of Pure Fishing treated two of his gal pals to a day of fishing with Capt. Chris Johnson and SeaSquared Charters out of 7 Mile Marina. A resident of the Tampa FL area, Ryan had never caught an amberjack, so they headed to a wreck in about 200 feet of water and set to butterfly jigging. Ryan was rewarded with a nice 40-pounder. While they were out there, a silky shark made a guest appearance at the boat. They hand fed him for awhile and then tossed him a whole block of chum.

They looked for dolphin for about an hour and a half with little success, perhaps because it was too late in the morning. They ended the day on the patch reefs where they put quite a few nice yellowtail in the boat.
