Apr. 28, 2009 – Family Fish Tales
Someone once said, “A family that fishes together stays together.” There can be so many special memories made on a family fishing trip and it was our pleasure to be involved in the memory making process for five sets of families over the past week.

Apr. 15, 2009 – Fishing Heating Up
The fishing over the past week has been warming along with the weather. We still had to contend with the lingering blustery winds of early spring and a freak cold front on Easter weekend but conditions have improved overall … and so has the fishing.

Apr. 7, 2009 – Great Start to a Great Month
April is such a great month on our calendar as temperatures rise, rains come, trees leaf, flowers bloom, cobia migrate, mullet flood flats, breeder trout invade sandy potholes, redfish roam the shallows, snook return to their summer haunts and tarpon begin to roll. Indeed, it is a great time to be a fishing fanatic along […]

The subjects of this particular fishing report were some of the all star clients […]
Feb. 27, 2009 – February Fishing Fables

The following five fishing reports feature some of the many February clients of Capt. […]
January 22, 2009 – Cool Temps and Warm Hearts
Over the past two weeks, we have seen some of the coldest temperatures along central east coast of Florida in years. It has sent shivers down our thin-blooded spines and panic into the lives of our semi-tropical finned friends. However, no matter how cold the temps outside, the outstanding fishing action has warmed the souls […]
Christmas is the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

December 12, 2008 – Transition Time
December is the month where autumn gives way to winter in central Florida. With the arrival of a series of cold fronts we are compelled to shift fishing locations and tactics in order to be successful.
