Battling the Glades September 26, 2021

 I had the day off, well until Mike called me.  I've know Mike for over 25 years and every time we fish together I truly enjoy my time with him so you know where this is going.  When Mike asked if I wanted to fish with him the Everglades I said yes and 12 hours later I hopped in his car and off we went.  What a gorgeous day, I'm telling you fall is here early with clear skies, low humidity and morning air temperatures in the mid 70's.  Anyway, we fished hard and poled around, staked off, drifted tossing lures for redfish and snook.  And....it was dead.  I saw a lot of the skiffs fishing the area moving around too so it looked like it was the same across the board.  However, at the tail end of the outgoing tide we went to one of my go to spots and there we were able to pick up a few snook.  It was tough fishing but we had a great time, caught some fish and came down to the wire almost getting skunked.  Oh, Mike tried to blame it on my banana.  Leave my banana alone!

October 30, 2015 Report (must watch video!)

Today I fished with Graham from the UK and what a great day we had. We started off under slick calm conditions looking for mullet schools off of South Beach but didn't find any. We fished the deeper grass flats using lures and it was on fire with fish on almost every cast. In a couple of hours we caught tons of trout, Barracuda, big mangrove snapper, jacks and big high jumping lady fish. At one point Graham hooked two big mangrove snappers on the same lure with one fish on each hook, it was amazing! Switching gears we caught some live bait and ran down to fish the creeks for snook but only had one brief hit and didn't hook any but had an incredible encounter as you'll see in the video. With the changing of the tide we ran back up to South Beach found a bait school being busted and again, great action including the first mackerel school of the season. With our attention back on snook, Graham hooked, fought and lost a massive snook using a big live mullet. The day ended losing another nice fish before heading in. It was a great day with tons of fish. I love fall in Miami!
