September 5, 2015 AM & PM Reports

AM Report Kurt is a local regular client of mine and I always enjoy fishing with him and his kids. Today however, the kids were out of town and his girlfriend Annie joined him. We aught a few trout at our first spot but it proved to be slower than I would have liked. Taking them to another spot we missed a few nice bites from snook, landed a few fish for dinner and lost a couple more bruisers to the rocky bottom below. At our last spot the fish were in thick on the shallow wreck and the action was immediate. They landed a few more fish for dinner and cancelled the dinner plans they had for the night. Cool!

PM Report Locals Eric, his daughter Margaret and her husband Josh jumped aboard for my afternoon trip and off to the flats we headed to avoid the Saturday Labor Day boat traffic as well as the storm brewing over the area we were going to fish initially. The flats had activity despite the high water, the calm windless conditions working in our favor. Eric and Josh had a few shots at a permit cruising right towards us and then a BIG school of bonefish that came right at us. With the storm now intensifying towards our west, north and south we took the safe route and began shark fishing while waiting to see if the storm would clear. Unfortunately, 10 minutes into shark fishing we made the call to head in a few minutes early to avoid the massive lighting activity starting to move towards the marina. We made it just in time with only a few sprinkles to deal with. The weather has been crazy the last few days. Capt.
