Fishing has been hot one day and cold the next, over the last couple days. With the recent cold front and a couple tough days trying to get the grouper to cooperate, today's charter was a welcomed catch. Yesterdays trip was a fun one and we did catch some grouper, but the big one's got away and we had more break off's than I could count. So, for a change of pace, I ran to the shallow rock piles today and caught a little mixed variety. My good client Doug and his friends Leon and Linus (who work for ESPN's Monday night foot ball) were in town from the Tampa Bay/Colts game and we had a great day out of Crystal River. Starting the day we were catching several trout, but mostly shorts were on the of our lines on our first couple stops. Leaving the trout action, we ran to the rock piles and in no time, we were catching flounder, snapper, grunts, porgy's, etc.. and had plenty of fish for the cooler. Another picture perfect day on the water and fall in definatley in the air. Thank you all for the fun time and here is the crew with today's catch...  Capt. Dan
