Three Crazy Dudes April 29, 2022

Brad, Jason and Cody couldn't be nicer guys to fish with.  The guys kept me laughing and had a blast.  We started tarpon fishing with tarpon rolling around us but soon enough they told me they decided no tarpon, but sharks instead.  Off we went to the flats and it was on fire. I set out the baits, turned around and they were on with Brad on first.  We lost that fish but eventually all three guys caught sharks and the bite was non stop.

She beat the tarpon! April 28, 2022

Emily and Chris from Oregon wanted to try tarpon fishing.  I told them it's been a tough season with slim pickings during the day but we went for it.  With the calm conditions I had a feeling they would be in a spot where they have rarely been this season so off we went.  A short run later we got to the spot and there they were, rolling here and there.  We set up and had two baits out but soon after Emily hooks up and after a tough but efficient fisht, she got her big tarpon to the boat.  I grabbed the leader for the official release and then the tarpon surged and dashed to the back of the boat as a 400lb bull shark tried to eat it.  I hit the throttle and broke off the tarpon and ran circles in order to scare the shark.  It worked as the tarpon swam away with no sign of the shark.  Whew, close call.  We wrapped up the trip fishing a bridge for tarpon but they refused to eat.

Brown Tarpon April 27, 2022

We kept it moving with David and Joel as we tried tarpon and bonefishing without success on a pretty slow day.  The were itching to fish for sharks though so we wrapped up an otherwise slow day fishing for lemon sharks on the flats and that was on fire.  The guys hooked a number of them in short order as the tide came off the flat and saved the day for two very cool guys.

Greg the Adventurer April 26, 2022

Alex is a long time regular client and he is an awesome dude and he brought his buddy Greg today.  Greg has sailed all across the globe in sail racing competitions and fell in love with Biscayne Bay.  The goal was shark so I took them to a channel to catch bait and had a blast catching nice yellow jacks as well as hooking a couple of black tip sharks that were coming out of the water to hit our baits.  Nice!  Once on the flats the guys caught sharks before calling it a day.

A turn for the better April 24, 2022

Finally the wind started to come down on time for Jess and Ben to head out with me.  This was a fun full day trip where we fished for snook, bonefish and sharks while squeezing in some snapper fishing for dinner.  It's always great to fish with Jess and she was eager for Ben to catch a shark, and he did.

So close!!! April 21, 2022

The wind has been blowing but we press on.  It was blowing 20-25 MPH today when Peter jumped in the boat and off we went for 6 hours of hiding from the wind and getting him some fish.  We started off tarpon fishing but the only spot we could fish didn't hold any tarpon yet so we went bonefishing and Peter hooked a nice fish that came off.  Moving on to snook we worked docks and Peter had three bites, hooked one massive snook that broke him off on a piling.  Ouch!  We wrapped up the trip tarpon fishing with no success.

First Time Kids April 20, 2022

Today I had Sally and her two boys for a quick trip to get them fishing.  The boys have only fished once before so it was a laid back, keep the rod bent kind of trip and they did well.  The boys caught red grouper, snappers, jacks and more.  With all the practice they had today they became pros by the end of the trip.
