As a quick Recap before I post a slurry of photos, I want to preface this post by saying how excellent October was for us. The weather was fair, the water clear and the marsh was doing very well with the redfish. Unlike the past couple of falls when our redfishing was really hurt by [...]
It's coming down to the wire and we're looking at another awesome October and November - our best fishing of the year. Red Drum, Speckled Trout, Flounder, False Albacore, King Mackerel - it's all out there. My dates are becoming VERY VERY SLIM! It's time to get that date booked otherwise you'll be out of [...]
Inshore - the red drum fishing continues to get better and better as we work in October. The fish have been chewing on topwater and on popping corks - and we've been finding a good number of nice speckled trout mixed in as well. Late Sept and early October are some of my favorite times [...]
It was about time for me to get a new inshore boat - our fishery and market has changed a lot in the past few years...and it's a great time to buy a boat! To make this story short - I got an offer I couldn't refuse on a boat that is perfect for my [...]
On the third day of wacking the Jacks on the fly - John, Ed and I got to witness an incredible animal. When John was bringing a big Jack to the boat - it's behavior was off and the fish shot to the surface early. While I tailed the unharmed fish - I quickly saw [...]
John, who is an excellent fly angler, and his friend Ed came down to hopefully get after a few AJs on the fly. Ideally, we were hoping for one nice day to hit the ocean as we had good "redfish tailing tides" as a backup option. Well, they had about the best luck you can [...]
I had a very calm day and a client who was very ready to get offshore and try to raise a sailfish. Jason was ready to sit back and be ready for a couple of good bites - and that's just what we did. It was slick calm, and while a lot of people had [...]
The Dog days were upon us - hot, steamy with plenty of thunderstorms. However, the fishing can be quite good in August...particularly if you're open minded. The backwater drum fishing was excellent this year, and we had a great time with the Sharks (both big boys and bonnetheads), spanish mackerel and amberjacks. When we could [...]
I have several last minute openings this week - Wednesday the 22nd and Thursday the 23rd....and the following week also has several openings. I am almost booked up in early august prior to the 10th - open dates remain scattered after that point. Give me a ring if you want to book a day - [...]
Offshore - The excellent mahi-mahi bite in the 15-25 mile continues to hold strong. While it is not as red hot as this past June, we continue to do very, very well. Each day brings us between 6 and 12+ mahi-mahi of GOOD size and we've been landing several 15-20lb fish every single day. Typically [...]
