I like the 409 Hump. see this post
409 Hump- lines out 2 minutes

I always catch Tuna, Mahi and Wahoo on this Hump. Plus there are 2 distinct rips here to fish.

At least in regards to deepdropping, it ain't "409 !CONO!". It's 409 Oh, NO!

Seriously folks, over five days of hard fishing in late July 07, I deepdropped the 409 Humps and wound up Lesbian Fishing the entire time. IT SUCKED! Ask Poolman and BottomJerk. THey were down there too and saw my empty coolers every day. It didn't help that I brought along an unappreciative Date Du Jour and her spoiled brat kid who gave me sh!t every time I came back with no seafood for dinner.

Next time I go back to the Keys it will be either to fish the backcountry with a local OR pony up the dough and hitch a ride on either Andy Griffiths or Yankee Captains for some hardcore, long-range bottom fishing west of the Keys.
