Bluefin

/in /by

As the commercial Bluefin season winds down we are gearing up for Spring Turkey and then on to the Summer Fishing Season!!!!  Tons of excitement already this year starting with the close of an awesome waterfowl season (Thanks again to everybody! We miss you all already!!  😥 ), continued work on the farms to get ready for next year, great sound rockfish trips, the quickly approaching spring and all the fun that season brings, and then of course – summertime!  It’ll be here before we know it 🙂  A few pics from yesterday’s outing with Karl, Casey and Russell… pretty work fellas!

Ducks!

/in , /by

The word of the day is DUCKS!!  Things have been busy busy the last 2 months… never-ending prep work and upkeep to get ready for the big season bearing down on us Saturday (it’s almost here!), the short season (a HUGE thank you to our early crowd… always a blast!), and trips out to the central flyway.  One of the highlights of our year is to start the season by heading out west to see lots of great old friends and make fantastic new ones… A part of the country where the scenery is breath taking, the duck activity unbelievable, and the people incredible.  A piece of true America…Faith, Family, and Community are forefront and the friends are priceless.  We are always so thankful to get back there and spend some time.   And now back to business….We’re geared up and ready to get to it this season!  The weather is ducky and the birds are flying… can’t wait to see everyone!

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!!

Cobia Hammerhead PM 1/2 Day

/in , /by

Our conditions from this morning fell apart but we st had a great catch..we landed three Cobia and killed two for our young anglers m however the most exciting part of the trip was not a Cobia at all we spotted a dark spot deep in the water 100 yds off of the bow assuming it was the one Casey threw the trickery on top of it and from the depths a 130 lb hammerhead comes firing up and eats..as that battle is in progress with our 7 year old angler I look of the bow and see a Cobia!! Throw the jig and GOTEEM ON!!! Double header hammerhead and Cobia at the same time..We landed the shark and released the Cobia for another day..What a day!! Thanks guys see you soon.congratulations to our young boys..great job..
