Well, today marks the last day of the season that I will fish for speckled trout…… Unless something miraculous happens. We did manage a nice 20″ striper during the search for the elusive speck. We switched over to flounder for a couple hours and picked through about a dozen 14 inchers to get one 17″ keeper. Spent the last hour outside looking for a cobia, with no love. Thanks guys – fun morning!
Had Neal and Company out for a morning half day trip yesterday. These guys were hilarious and had me rolling the whole time. We caught a couple keeper flounder mixed in with some throwbacks and a ton of grass. Thanks for fishing with me guys. ! The other photo is from the other evening we had a humpback whale breaching over and over about 6 miles off the beach. He gave us a heck of a show!
Jesse, Mike, Bobby, and their Pops joined me for two 3/4 days this week. The first day was Tuesday and we had a pretty slow day. We caught 1 keeper cobia out of the 3 we saw.
Today we gave it another go, Jesse wanted a piggy! We fished inside for a little while to start the day and we caught some throwback flounder and misc. bottom fish. We tried sheepshead for a bit but we decided it was time to run out the inlet. It wasn’t a very pleasant ride out….. The inlet was breaking all the way across. We finally got out and saw a fish pretty quickly. Ended up seeing a total of 10 and catching 4 in about 2 hours. We had a couple shots at the big one (70+) but never made the connection. Next year Jesse!!! Thanks for joining me guys – great company
Went 1 for 3 today on a tough cloudy morning. Caught a bunch of croakers early in hopes of feeding some stubborn fat girls. We felt pretty lucky to get 1 in the box. Thanks for grinding it out guys!!
More cobia today for Chet and his wife Allison. Very enjoyable day on the water with great conditions all day long. 4 cobia helped too, one of which came as we were climbing in the tower to start the day. They’re still hangin’ around! Good thing too – I’ve heard horror stories about the sound fishing right now. Thanks guys – great day.
