Tripletail
The Tripletail is a surface fish, lounging around floating debris and buoys waiting for it's dinner to arrive. They can grow to 40 pounds but are normally found much smaller. They have very sharp teeth and spines with razors for gills, so handle with care. Tripletail feed on smaller fish, shrimp and crabs and are very good table fare. They are quite shy and slow to take your bait.
A few tons of Atlantic tripletails are fished commercially on the east and west coasts of Florida, and marketed fresh, frozen, or salted. They are mainly caught using haul seines, gill nets, and line gear. They are common in driftnet catches of tuna along the edge of the continental shelf. This fish is infrequently targeted by recreational fishers.
Key Lime Fudge
Ingredients:
14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
2 tbsp Key lime juice (approximately 3 key limes)
3 tsp key lime zest (use a microplane to keep the zest pieces small)
3 cups White chocolate chips
Directions:
Butter a casserole dish or 8"x 8" baking dish, and set aside.
Place sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate chips into a large sauce pan and place on the stove over low heat. Stir chocolate mixture until all chocolate chips are melted and incorporated into the sweetened condensed milk.
Remove from heat and stir in Key lime zest and fresh Key lime juice.
Pour mixture into your prepared baking dish.
Cover and chill for at least 2 hours, or until Key lime fudge is set and hard.
Remove from the refrigerator and enjoy!

2009 Ocean Master 310 XPC
Destiny was planned and designed as a FISHING MACHINE. In order to fish in comfort, the cabin can be totally closed and is equipped with an air conditioner. It also has a marine head with macerator. The windshield is equipped with wipers and washers so that the salt spray does not hamper visibility. In addition to the bench seats facing a table, there is a removable Todd pedestal with a Captain's Helm Chair for when only 2 people are aboard. Equipment aboard will provide the ability to fish Coastal, Offshore, Deep Dropping and everything in between.
Buyer with NO fishing gear could take this boat and fish for anything in the ocean. Destiny has never sat in the water when not in use, and has had a FRESH WATER flush as soon as returning to the dock. 100 Hour Service Just Completed.
