I had a great time with Susan and Chris today - pretty weather and great drum fishing. We had hoped to catch some flounder, but my usually reliable places just did not product at all. However, we hit the marsh and found 2 large schools very quickly. We got a ton of hits on topwater [...]
Decent topwater bite friday morning - got several, missed several and saw a small schoolm had a great time with Steve and Mac - decent day by 2011 drum standards. Hopefully the drum will stick around for sat too.
First of all, I want to thank everyone who sent me emails and text messages checking on me and wishing us well. It really meant a lot. Irene really fizzled for us - thurs evening we were on the fence as whether to evacuate with the boats or ride it out...but when they descreased it [...]
Very nice day - cloudy in the morning. Sunny and very calm in the evening - water is green and clear with just a small swell rolling in. The morning gave us good spanish mackerel casting. We tried for sharks but they were a no show. We had a great time in the afternoon - [...]
I really do love everything about wahoo - their savage strikes, blistering runs, gorgeous stripes and, of course, on the grill... This isn't the type of trip I do with clients all that often, or really ever, but we typically get some really nice weather days in late august when the wahoo fishing is quite [...]
As our summer season starts to slow down - the fish just keep chewing. Claire did a great job with spanish and blues...but she wanted to catch a shark as well. We put an hour in - caught a giant ray and hooked 2 sharks. We fought one for a good while but he managed [...]
Jarret and his pops and grandpa worked through a VERY slow inshore bite to get Jarret his first red - not only that, he did it all himself from the cast. Great job!
Started off rough this morning - swelly and blowing out of the north. By midday it was slacking and slicking up - we had good bait and got on good fish. Big seabass and small grouper ruled the morning until we zero'd a great gag bite. Interupted only by a passing 12lb cow mahi (on [...]
I took a day off in order to get offshore and do something that I typically don't do with clients. It was also supposed to be slick calm but light and variable became east 15. That made the stream choppy (blowing against the current) and a bit too much running 8 lines out of a [...]
The bite improved over yesterday - we smoked the big spanish getting 12+ bites and landing 8 over 5lbs (biggest just over 6). The flounder were steady on jigs and livies -- we picked away at them getting 14 keepers, a bunch of throwbacks and a 3lb seabass to round it out. Jason landed the [...]
