Chopper blues! June 13

Glenn joined us again today.We had tough luck pulling off two nice cobia out of the gate.Soon after we found a big spot of the big “chopper” bluefish and had a great time catching them on top water plugs and jigs.It was great to see them.We finished the day with a cobia.

Spring Haul Out

Another sure sign of spring…. time in the yard!!  The Fistful is up and the boys are hard at work prepping for the fast approaching Summer season.  A fresh coat of bottom paint, barrels of elbow grease, lots of love and tons of wax 🙂  We’ll spend a couple of weeks again in Hatteras this year beginning May 12th – Days are filling fast so anyone interested in fishing out of Hatteras please let us know as soon as possible!

Ducks and Fish :)

Just a quick update… we are neck deep in duck season so pictures will be a bit scarce until the end of January 🙂  A big thank you to everyone so far and the best is yet to come!!  We can’t wait to see everyone this season!!  We did manage to sneak out for an offshore trip on Sunday… teaming up with Rigged Up and getting into the wahoo and tiles!  Great job to Martin and Chris… a bit sporty out there but well worth all the effort – Pretty Work guys!!  Thank you Charles..Awesome Trip!!!

Marlin Mania :)

We had the rare opportunity to get to spend the day with one of our most special friends….Thank you so much Charles!!!  Karl and I don’t get much chance to actually fish with each other these days… We don’t know how to act being back in the cockpit together!  One of the best days ever 🙂  10 Whites!!!  With unbelievable weather and sea conditions and incredible company… there is nothing that would have made this day any better.  The marlin are still here… Now is the time to go if catching one of these marvelous creatures is on your list!!
