Fishing in our region the last couple weeks have been not the typical December weather . We have been in a summer, fall almost pattern for the last few weeks, water temps have been in the mid 70s we have been strictly using pilchards, the water has just been too warm for the shrimp.

The backcountry fishing has been absolutely on fire, big Snook big  redfish big jacks have been the staple these last few trips . We are starting to see some cold fronts and some cooler water and for the future trips the next few weeks we will be going back-and-forth between shrimp and pilchards. Shrimp in the morning trips and pichards in the afternoon when everything warms up.

Season is in full swing, the snowbirds are here. Please book your trips accordingly if you know your parties best available day please let us know as soon as possible our calendars are getting extremely busy .

Thank you, tight lines. Captain Wes

Well we were waiting and waiting patiently for it and it is finally here. Back to back to back cold fronts and water dipping into the 60s we have made the transition to shrimp. This is the time of the year where we catch lots of good table fair using shrimp is great bait to use this time of the year the waters cooler the fish are moving slower and want that easy meal. We have been fishing rock piles docks anything that holds sheep head black drum trout redfish even some snook in the mix. Our calendar is extremely packed this time of the year but we do have some spaces available please call as soon as possible for your earliest bookings.

Thank you tight lines,

Family fun triple tailing was the staple for the week. The weather has been beautiful and we took full advantage of it. It’s hard to pass up some of these beautiful fillets for dinner and my clients were not complaining. We are averaging 1 to 3 fish per half day charter there’s been a lot around at least one for the table every trip.

The backcountry still remain solid, after triple-tailing we returned for a slew of Jack’s, Snook, redfish, trout, snapper, sheephead pompano full on winter fishery. We are starting to fill our calendars for the last two weeks of the year. It is full-blown season please book your trips accordingly!

Tight lines, Captain Wes

Mid November fishing report: triple tail fishing remains very consistent between the fronts. It seems all of the barely legal fish from last season are all between seven and 9 pounds. Amazing eating fish and my clients have not been complaining. We have been averaging at least one of these fish per Charter, and have lost some monsters!!

Backcountry fishing remains very good. We are right on the cusp of pilchards and shrimp. Water temps have been in the mid70s so shrimp have been working too.  Lots of mixed bag on the shrimp from Pompano sheephead  black drum and trout! We are definitely heading into our winter pattern!

So happy Thanksgiving everyone we are very busy this week hopefully we’ll hear from you soon!

Tight lines, Captain Wes!

The first cold front has made its way through our region. Fishing remains as solid as ever. Redfish are everywhere, it seems like sometimes we can’t get away from them, it’s not a bad thing! Lots of Snook and Jack’s fill in the gap’s.

Offshore and near shore, The inshore Wrecks have been providing lots of mangrove snapper, Sheephead some Spanish mackerel and even some Wreck Snook. Running to those spots we’ve been in countering lots of triple tail with some studs mixed in..

This time of the year the fishing is so good when we’re not working we are still fishing.The traps have been out for over a month now and the triple tail fishing is about as good as it gets. We just had a front go through, the water temperatures are cooling and the fish are hungry. They’re are not very many fish that we take to the table, but these are so good, it’s hard to pass them up!

The fishing in the back country remains consistent. Snook and redfish remain very plentiful on every Charter.

Our calendars are filling up with the arrival of the snowbirds. So please book your trips accordingly.

Fishing in our region consistently gets better every day. Backcountry fishing has been staying very consistent with all of the usual suspects around. Redfish, snook, juvenile Tarpon and Jack’s of all sizes. If you want something to pull on a little harder, spinner sharks and black tips have been all over the beaches, all sight fishing in Crystal clear water. The Stone crab traps are being set out this week which means tripletail fishing should be incredible in the next few weeks. Our calendars are filling up steadily every day. The snowbirds are on their way down, book your trips as soon as possible.
