After cancelling yesterday's trip due to the weather; today was a much better day. Dan, Lauren and Gary were the team and with a light chop on the gulf, we headed to grouper land. Well, it was a good choice and we found some nice gags moving around little by little dropping down live pin fish. The action was steady on all the places we fished and the team did a great job turning all the fish. I thank you all and I'll see you next month... Capt. Dan
Pretty windy for us today on this Labor Day and Bill and Jerry were ready to give it a go. Red fishing was our plan, but the bite was slow today. We caught a couple rat reds right away and moved around a bunch. We finally went in the Ozello back country where Bill caught his first snook and Jerry got his big red; plus having a couple come unbuttoned. Free lined pin fish under a cork got us the bigger bites, while shrimp produced the little guys. Always a good time with you both and I hope the conditions are more favorable next time... Capt. Dan
We put our seat-belts on today with the Platz team in town for their yearly Labor day weekend trip and we did very well. It was blowing pretty hard out of the SE, but the team was game to give it a try. We set up a couple miles offshore and even though we took some waves over the bow, the grouper bite was pretty good. Live baits were once again our producer for the gags and the guys did a great job turning them, with no break offs. I thank you all and we'll see you soon... Capt. Dan
Still a surprisingly good grouper bite going on and that's so great; as we wait for the tides to get better for red fishing next week. Tony and Tony were the team today and they did outstanding turning some beauty gags. Live pin fish continue to be the ticket as the floating grass is still pretty bad for trolling. I see the tropics are starting to heat up a bit and I hope there are no storms coming our way, as the hurricane season has been quiet. Great job fellas and I look forward to seeing you again in a couple weeks... Capt. Dan
