Changing Gears once again :)

It’s that time of year again when we go through withdrawals and tell everyone “Goodbye” for now at the close of another duck season… Our season starts Mid-September and by the end of January it takes a little getting use to when the early mornings, non-stop scouting and phone calls, and continuous prep for the next day’s hunts/departures/arrivals comes to an abrupt end.  We can never say “Thank you” enough to everyone… especially during a tough season like this year!  We were due for a crazy warm winter and we sure got it!  Nothing can stop the fun though and when you have a group of guys (and girls!) like we have – it is always a blast!!  We are so thankful for everyone and for the opportunity to spend time with such incredible friends.  We are already looking forward to next year… Spring Turkey is next then it’s time to fish!!  Thanks again everyone 🙂

End of the 2015 Fishing Season Wrap Up…

It’s time again to change gears… what an incredible season we have had!  A huge thank you again to all our anglers – you truly make what we do so special.   Another enormous Thank You to Captain Richie Howell for jumping in to finish out the season while Karl was in recovery mode the last 10 days… you made it a little easier to keep him on the couch knowing you were on the bridge.  Casey – always much love and appreciation for all you do! We couldn’t do it without you 🙂  The Fistful is getting a break until after duck season – we will all be busy with the birds until the end of January.  Keep up with all the excitement through our Facebook page over the next few months and we will see everyone back on the water next season!!  Thanks again everybody!

August 2015

Crazy that August is already here!!  Our dolphin (Mahi Mahi) fishing has been unreal the end of July/first of August… It’s just not suppose to happen on short day trips but our 1/2’s and 3/4’s are getting into action that normally you have to run 30 miles offshore to get.  We are so thankful when Neptune helps us out a bit and sends that warm Gulf Stream water close enough for us to get our hands (and hooks!) on these wonderful fish!  Thank you so much to all our groups!!  Friday afternoon (the 8th) just opened up if anyone is interested and we have a few spots available next week – Give us a call…Let’s go fishing!!

Summer in full swing!!

We have had a fantastic JULY so far!!  A huge thank you to everyone! Fishing is a blast but it’s our anglers that really make the trips…. thank you so much 🙂  So far July has been filled with a mixed bag of Cobia, Amberjack, Red Drum, Spanish, Kings and Blues, Barracuda, Wahoo, Dolphin and more!  We are excited to see what mid-summer brings as we continue to roll on… we have some scattered days left in July and August is starting to book up – Give us a call… Let’s go fishing!!

We have had an unbelievably eventful winter and spring and now summer is here!  We are so proud and thankful to be able to kick off this fishing season with our newest edition – our new FISTFUL boat!  She’s a 45 foot Alex Willis (a carolina boat custom built in Harker’s Island).  We were sad to see our original girl go on to other adventures but at the same time we are super excited to have this opportunity and get this year’s fishing started!  We are running the same trips… just with more comfort and room!  The Cobia are here… we have a few days left in June open so give us a call if you are ready to go.  Can’t wait to see everyone!

Afternoon on the river…

Set out this afternoon 50 miles from where we were this morning with my fishing partner. A very nice class and sign of rock in the chowan. Love watching my boo getem.

Spring Rockfish!

This pair of famous people joined me yesterday afternoon and this morning rock fishing on the Albemarle..Casting bight was strong. .A box full and plenty of catch and release and a tagged fish kicker with a cool story.We have next Wednesday and Friday available if any one is up for some great light tackle action.
