We had an early taste of fall this morning going out the Crystal River and what a welcomed surprise. A very pleasant cool morning and I had the Platz family on board to enjoy it. Once we reached the mouth of the river, we ran south and began the morning catching a few trout. Plenty of shorts kept us busy, but we put a couple keepers in the cooler while we were waiting for the tide to get right to find a red fish. Around 11am we began working the outer points and the red fish were there. Using cut baits and live shrimp we totaled 9 red fish with several in the slot, a few under the slot and one just over the 30" mark. It was the perfect day with a great family and fantastic fishing. Thank you all for the fun time and here is Richard with the big red fish of the day... Capt. Dan
