Pulley Ridge, Is It Worth The Run?

[@vedderadder7890]

I’ve done this trip a few times with YC but I finally procured my own boat capable of this run. Your videos are helpful. I live on BPK so it will be a similar run for me. I’ll be running a 36’ Cat with quad Mercs. I’m wondering about the fuel bladder. Thx for all your help!

[@marathonsportfishing]

Cool, I'm on Little Torch which cat do you have?

[@vedderadder7890]

@@marathonsportfishing I have 36’ Renaissance Prowler.

Great video captain! An adventure…..any day on the water is a good day👍

[@marathonsportfishing]

Thanks for tuning in!

[@andreabloom1173]

Awesome video! Nice variety of fish. I see a fish fry video in the future. 😊

[@marathonsportfishing]

Coming soon! Thanks for tuning again!

Looked like an awesome trip Capt.

[@marathonsportfishing]

It was really cool, grueling but cool!

[@tamaram5945]

Looks like a lot of fun

[@marathonsportfishing]

It was a long but enjoyable day!

[@michaelnorton1002]

Definitely a long haul, but those are the trips you remember forever. Fun video as always

[@marathonsportfishing]

Yes! Thank you!

[@MickyC0601]

Good stuff on this video. I've never really been offshore like that, but it certainly looked like it would be worth it. Every time I am in the Keys I fish from shore Keep up the good work Micky C

[@marathonsportfishing]

Hey Micky, Glad you enjoyed it!

[@biffjohnson2076]

I know everyone wants to know, Capt Matt, how long it took to get out there, and how much fuel you used to get there. Great video! Your vids are always fun!

[@marathonsportfishing]

Good question! I believe the freeman 34 holds 400 gallons and we had an extra 100 gallon bladder. I think it was around 5 hours each way!!!

[@charleshatcliff5588]

Yes it is worth going according to the video. But man better get cocky with that long haul and have some fun with ur buddies. God bless be safe. Enjoyed.

[@marathonsportfishing]

It is a long haul for sure, but yes it is worth it!

[@rickfaber-uf3oy]

Long run but nice haul of fish

[@marathonsportfishing]

Yes it was! Its a bucket list type of trip.

[@CPolk6]

good video

[@marathonsportfishing]

Thank You!

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

Have you got a big J hook and a stick

[@marathonsportfishing]

You got that right, or the Gaff guy!

[@ellenmorgan6923]

Missed cooking show

[@marathonsportfishing]

I know! We got back LATE! Next one!!!

[@jivarie]

Good video, but if you knew you were going to catch that, you likely would not have run there. That said, anything can happen out there and you don't know till you go.

[@marathonsportfishing]

You are absolutly correct. We ran on a full moon, the bit was slow per Paul who makes the run frequently. Nevertheless we caught a bunch of fish, different species and had an adventure. Somedays its more about the trip vs the catch.

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

Not sure anyone wants to be the Bline champ 150 miles to Pulley Ridge.

[@John06648]

100%

[@marathonsportfishing]

LOL

[@davidfidel-st1ke]

Nice haul and plenty of meat ! looks like a great time was had by all except for one guy !🤮

[@marathonsportfishing]

You got that right! Travis (who got blamed for the gaff) was a bit exhausted most of the day! How's the sword bit been up by you guys. The week of the 13th I caught 3 (one was the 223) lost 1 the same size, in 3 trips.

[@davidfidel-st1ke]

@@marathonsportfishing Yes it's been pretty good lately. We caught the last two out of three trips. The bigger one was 83". Keep up the good work down there !
