What a start and then... June 16, 2021

This morning I was fishing with local client Alec. He wanted to try fly fishing for bonefish since he has caught plenty of bonefish with me on spin so we went for it. We had perfect conditions and there were bonefish swimming everywhere but it was one of those days where every cast was just a little short. Once that fishing slowed down we tried to target permit but the weather was getting worse and although we poled around in the rain for a while we decided to call it a day..

Double the fun today June 15, 2021

Today I had 2 trips out of the ocean reef club in Key Largo. My morning trip started with Andrew who wanted to break in his new flyrod on a tarpon. We had just about perfect tarpon conditions with cloudy skies calm winds and it was hot and muggy. I took him to my 1st spot and sure enough the tarpon were there rolling all over the place and after setting up on a few different schools Andrew finally hooked up . As the fish ran, a part of his butt section broke off and he remembered that he had been meaning to replace it. Ouch that hurt. My afternoon trip was with Tim and Mark and these guys were awesome so we focused on bonefishing. Tim hooked a nice fish and got it to the boat but the fish broke off as it got under the boat and by the trim tab. Then not long after Mark hooked a big bonefish but it came off almost immediately. Finally with almost no time left and us having to head in Tim hooks up again and finally gets his bonefish. Close call!

What a great group June 14, 2021

 The goal, relax and catch some fish for Lisa, Stina and Marsha.  The weather had settled a bit and allowed me to make a run a few miles south of the marina where the fishing started off good but slowed down.  That seemed to be the theme today, a spot would start off good then slow down forcing us to move around a bit and keep the action going.  In the end, they all caught a nice amount of fish and were definitely relaxed as they kept laughing throughout the entire trip.

Fund day June 13, 2021

 Fun day today with Kris and company as we fished out of Key Biscayne and caught yellow jacks, snapper, porgies and more.  The tide was right for tarpon but the wind was a bit much to fish the bridge and the snook were MIA in the protected areas away from the wind.

This was the day June 12, 2021

 I had Andrew on board today for bonefish and permit fishing on fly.  The conditions started off perfect for both but we focused on bonefish and it was on fire with tons of schools tailing all around us and Andrew hooking up a number of times and landing a few bonefish on fly.  Once the tide got too high the wind cranked up and the cloud cover began so the permit fishing was slow the rest of the day.

A better day June 11, 2021

 Kevin was back on the skiff today with his brother David and they wanted to keep things easy.  Since that was the goal I took them to a shipwreck where they caught some smaller snappers and shark bait and then we hit the flats for sharks.  The first flat for big sharks was slow so we fished a different flat where I find smaller sharks where the guys caught 60lb lemon sharks on light tackle and had a blast.

Not this time June 10, 2021

 I had regular long time client Ken and his little girl Gianna today and we started off bonefishing but the flats were really slow.  I took them to a spot where they bent rods and caught some fish including some for shark bait.  Once we got onto the flats we hooked about 4 nice lemon sharks but lost them all.  On the same flat a huge school of bonefish showed up and stayed a while mudding round the boat but it seemed like everything we did backfired.  I made a cast into the school of mudding bonefish and a hound fish ate the bait instead.  Then we made another cast, hooked a bonefish and it came off.  The another shot and the bonefish ate but Ken missed the bite.  Wow, that was rough as we headed back dejected.
