Crystal River Fishing Charters & Homosassa Charters

Quite a day on the flats off Crystal River and myself and Capt. Clay Shidler encountered one of the largest red fish schools I've seen in years. I had Tood and Frederick on board today and Frederick had traveled all the way from Sweden to experience some Crystal River fishing. After leaving from Pete's Pier Marina, we began targeting various points and we caught a nice slot red fish, jack crevelle and a couple mangrove snapper to get the going. My good friend Capt. Clay was just to the North of me, called me and said he had just realeased his second double header of over slot reds, but lost the school of well over a couple hundred fish. I immediatley jumped up on plane, made a big swing to the West of him about a 1/4 mile, shut down and the school popped up heading towards me. My team immediately hooked up and we totaled nine hefty red fish up to 32" and Capt. Clays party was back in them doing the same. A great team effort between the two boats and this is what guiding is all about. Here's Todd and Frederick with their second double header... Capt. Dan
