Crystal River Reds...
Not to many options for us today with the stiff West wind, but we made something happen. I had Phil and his sons on board and we tried for cobia to start off, but it was just to rough to really give it a go. A couple real nice gags kept us busy for a bit, but no cobia on the couple stops we fished. So, for plan B, they guys and I red fished the afternoon big tide and caught a few using live pin fish to seal the deal. We made the best of a tough day and I thank you all... Capt. Dan
Mom's Birthday...
A special happy birthday to my mom today as I took her and my brother out. We had a super fun day catching a great mix. Yesterday I was offshore with the Villages team and we had a great day with lots of action. I didn't take one picture, "I'm sorry guys", but we had some nice mango's and released lots of gags and undersized hogfish. Today though, was really great and just fun being with my family. They're all I have and they have been there for me when I've needed them most. Good grouper on the rocks, a cobia, triple tail and several snook - it was a fun day and Happy Birthday.... Capt. Dan
Crystal River Tripeltails..
It sure was a pretty day with Mishel and Earl on board this Saturday, but my goodness the river was insanely busy. " I try not to fish many weekends if I can". We had a really fun day running down some real quality triple tail and a whopper of a snook. The cobia were around, but when they were spotted, they just wouldn't stay up long enough to get a shot at them. A free lined live shrimp did the trick for the tripletails and they're going to have some good eating groceries on a pair of 10lbers. I thank you both and great job.... Capt. Dan
