Time to get out there!!

As we roll into June our fishing continues to be fantastic… The Tuna are still here but wont be for long!!  Don’t forget the Cobia and bottom fish, Mackerel and Bluefish… something different every day and so much fun.  Gib, Dickie, Mike, Bobbie and Dean and the boys – Thank you all so much!  We are so fortunate to have such great folks in our lives… you guys are awesome!

 

June is booking up – give us a call as soon as you know your dates so we can get your day saved… It’s time to fish!

 

Summer is officially here!

The weather is awesome and the fishing has been fantastic!  This week’s full days have been filled with Dolphin, Tilefish, Tuna, Cobia, a Barracuda and the first Blue Marlin of the Season!  The Mackerel and bluefish are showing up and provide tons of fun (and fantastic dinners!) for our short trips… A huge Thank You to all our groups..  Plus we were graced with an awesome clean-up crew on Sunday – Thanks girls!

 

As we all bustle about with the start of the Summer Season we would like to stop for just a minute and remember all the men and women that have made the ultimate sacrifice so that the rest of us can live in freedom… Thank you.  Everyone be safe and enjoy the holiday weekend!

 

Beautiful Weather and Beautiful Fishing!

From Cobia to Dolphin to Spanish Mackerel to Tilefish and more…. this week’s theme has been variety!!  Our Cobia are the main target this time of year but who can resist chasing the rest?!?!  🙂  We have already had tons of great trips with awesome anglers – thank you so much to all our seasoned salts and to our new group too (Go Duke!)  Great job everybody!  Let’s go fishing!

 

Cobia Cobia Cobia!

They are here! Time to go get em – call us if you want to get out there… we have days open but they are going quick!!  Several early season pictures from the past week (and we squeezed in a quick hit dolphin trip 1 week prior to Cobia season…Thanks John!!)… let’s go fishing!!

Another Turkey Season in the books

Spring Turkey is always a joy for all of us… another special time of the year and so much fun! We were fortunate enough this year to be a part of several “first birds”… kids and grown ups alike, plus our little one bagged her 4th gobbler, we had tons of great video opportunities and several of our “old pros” returned to make our days and keep us in stitches! Please see the facebook page for the videos (I couldn’t figure out how to load them here).  A few pics from the season as we roll on to the water – the boys finished the season up on Saturday and were chasing Cobia Sunday morning! Cobia pics to follow… Thank you everybody!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fishing is just around the corner!

Another wonderful waterfowl season is behind us – we already miss all of our crew from the past few months.  Thank you so much to everyone for all the fun and amazing experiences… you make our season everything it should be and more!  We are so fortunate… thank you.  We are looking forward to next year and looking forward to fishing!  Cobia season is scheduled to open May 1 this year and we are starting to book days already (Our first available day is May 8) – if you are thinking of saving a date (for Cobia or other trips) – especially for May and June – PLEASE let us know as soon as you can.  Also – don’t forget Spring!  Our small boat inland river trips will crank up in the next several weeks – Time to think FISHING!

 

Waterfowl Season is here!

Waterfowl season is here and we will be chasing birds until the end of January!  We had a fantastic kick off to the season with our trip out west – so much fun with friends and family and always awesome to catch up with our “extended” families out there.  Now it’s home season time and just as much fun here with everyone… we look so forward to this time of year 🙂  Fishing will crank back up in February!

     

Late Summer Great Fishing!

The last 2 weeks have been full of great fishing and amazing charters!  We have had a number of young anglers lately and what an impressive display of ability and enthusiasm from all of them – Every one of our kids jumped right into the fray and man… you can’t slow them down.  Some are new to the game and some are already well on their way to becoming pros (B. Boys – you know who you are!!) – Awesome job everybody!! One of our goals is to create an experience for them (and their adults) that will turn into a life-long passion… it really gets your heart fired up to see that spark.  Thank you so much to all our groups – Grown-Ups and Youngsters!  *** A huge Thank You goes out to Capt. Jim on the HogWild and Capt. Troy on the Fowl Hooked for helping us juggle some of our groups during our unexpected quickie haul out and to all the gang down at Bluewater for pulling together and getting us up and running again – JP – we owe you… as usual!! Thank you so much…. I wish I could have seen you on that lift!! ***

 

Last but not least – we do have some days open for the next few weeks – the Fistful gets a break starting September 17th this year so let us know if you want to get out there before we turn to the ducks!  The Billfish are starting to show… the dolphin are here on the Full Day trips… the Big Drum are hanging around… the Mackerel are snappin… the blues are snappin…the Jacks are snappin… the weather is beautiful… Let’s go Fishing!!

Summertime Rolls On!

Fishing continues to be awesome!!  Variety is still the theme song for this week… Dolphin, Moons, Triggers, Albecore, Tiles, Mackerels, Blues, Jacks, and one of our all time favs…. it’s it’s it’s the Drum!!  Every trip is different and we are so thankful for the wonderful weather and fantastic groups!  Some of our fine young anglers were able to get into the big Red Drum for some catch and release action and we hope their experience was one to keep them addicted for life!  We stumbled across a few lost Mahi that wondered in close to beach and were able to land them on a short trip – it doesn’t happen often at all but super cool when it does.  Tons of nearshore action continues with the Spanish, Blues, and Moons… smaller fish that are so much fun!  A huge thank you to Corey of the Corey Schaible Gallery for diving in and snapping an amazing pic of the Fistful on a full day trip… fitting to have the Amberjack on the way up in the shot!  Thank you so much.  And a major shout out to all the gang at the PC Fish Cleaning House – you do an amazing job and everybody remember – DFTTYFC!! 🙂  Lastly – this coming week is the 33rd annual Pirate’s Cove Billfish Tournament – a huge amount of activity will be happening all week up and down the docks – come see the boats and the fish and join in the fun!  Let’s go fishing!!

Moving on into August!

One of the really cool things about moving into later summer fishing is the huge variety of fish and the constant change from day to day… you never know what you are going to catch!  We have had some phenomenal action and we can’t say enough about our groups – once again… YOU make our jobs so fun!!  Great folks and good times is what it is all about – thank you so much everybody!  Dawn – the pictures are great! (Thank you!!)   Big Jack – We can’t thank you enough for everything you do for us 🙂  We have some spots still available for the next week… let’s go fishing!!
