Nov. 28, 2007 – Three Unforgettable Fishing Trips
Our motto at Native Sons Fishing Charters is to provide “A Fishing Trip you’ll never forget.” This past week our crede became our experience for three charters as the balmy, unseasnable temperatures of our Indian Summer set the stage for some of the most memorable fishing drama of the year. The lead story for the […]
November 18, 2007 – Oh What a Difference
The phrases are frustrating, if not all too familiar this time of year; “Oh what a difference a day can make” or “Should have been here yesterday.” Don’t take it personally, the fickle weather has everything to do with it! The weather of late fall can play cruel tricks on fishing guides – fishing red […]
November 10, 2007 – Torrid Bites and Cooler Days
The torrid bite of the fall mullet run continues in the Indian River of Brevard County from north to south … and even though late autumn is now bringing us windier and cooler days, the action is still blowing white hot. In the midst of it all, the guides of Native Sons are leading the […]
Oct 21, 2007 – Outstanding Weekend for Native Sons
Congratulations to Captains Peter Deeks, Roland Jones and Don Patterson for outstanding performances in the inaugural Treasure Coast Flats Circuit finals held this past weekend in Sebastian, Florida.

October 4, 2007 – No Better Time Then This Time
There is no better time of the year to fish then this time … for the fall mullet run has started and it has brought some of the best fishing of the year to our area. From Titusville in the north to Ft. Pierce in the south, whether in the in-shore lagoon of the Indian […]
September 15, 2007 – Tournament Updates
Charter fishing has slowed down a bit as it always does in late summer (August and September) but the tournament action for Native Sons guides certainly has not. So instead of our regular ‘fishing report,’ we provide the following ‘tournament update’: Last weekend, three of the Native Sons group participated in the TCF Circuit/Sebastian Inlet […]
August 20, 2007 – The Fishing is Scorching Hot
Okay, it’s been hot in central Florida over the past several weeks, the hottest I can remember, and I do not mean just the temperatures – the fishing has been scorching hot too! Since we have already dealt with how to beat the heat in a past fishing report, let’s focus on the adventuresome and […]
August 6, 2007 – Cleaning Out Notebook
It has been a while since our last fishing report and my notebook is bulging with information. Scanning the pages, we find the following brief descriptions: Friday, July 20th – Capt. Roland and Capt. Peter prefished ‘near-shore’ off Satellite Beach for tarpon and kingfish.- several pods of rolling poons sighted and three silver kings landed […]
July 15,2007 – A Mysterious Mistress
Fishing can be a fickle and mysterious mistress at times and this past week was a good illustration of that axiom. Our scheduled charters were later in the week which provided us with the opportunity for some extra prep and down time on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday was set aside for prefishing and when we […]
July 8, 2007 – The Pursuit of Happiness
One of the great things about living in Florida is the variety of options available to us in our inalienable right to pursue happiness (Fourth of July themes still streaming through my consciousness). This past week we guided charters from Titusville in the north (35 miles east of Orlando)to Ft. Pierce in the south (75 […]
