600' is about the starting point for dolphin. From Big Pine Key that's a good
15-20 miles out...

I am preparing to take the family to the keys for a fishing trip. We are
going to Big Pine Key. I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions
for some good fishing. I need info on bait, equipment, tactics, etc. My
children are 10 and 7 so please don't suggest any big game, deep sea stuff.
. . I don't think they are ready for that yet.

I want to have fun with the kids catching snapper, dolphin, yellowtail, etc.
Thanks.
