Her interest in fishing would sustain her to become Captain Al Phillips fishing partner to this day. Kathie says, that her favorite fishing is in the Florida Keys. Many winters were spent in Marathon Key fishing for Dolphin. Mia Mia the fish is her favorite. On a calm day offshore, large schools of Dolphin create a great fishing adventure.
