Christmas Greetings/Fitz Coker/Upcoming Plans

December 25, 2012 Comments Off on Christmas Greetings/Fitz Coker/Upcoming Plans

Merry Christmas. I just returned to the shop from a great lunch with my BFF Fitz Coker and Dotty Ballantyne, which was great. The cold of the last few days has subsided, and the fishing is bound to get great in no time. As long as the water heats up, there should be plenty of…

The End of the World…

…is a cold front. relatively anti-climactic, but it bodes well for the future of life (both human and fish) on the planet. It may, however, make the fishing in the next few days less than phenomenal. More to come when next I’m out. nathaniel

Yesterday I fished with Captain Justin Rea in his Yellowfin bay boat. Joining us was Diego Rouylle.

Last Wednesday I fished with Captain Mike Gorton. I was looking forward to fishing out of Mike’s boat, a custom canoe that he built to fish down here. We had a great time, and I enjoyed fishing out of a different boat. Our target was redfish, and even though it was overcast and windy decided…

Fishing last Monday

December 1, 2012 Comments Off on Fishing last Monday

Monday I fished for sharks with Aaron Snell. This was our third trip in three weeks, and if you keep up with the reports you know that the last two trips had been difficult. We left at the same time, and discussed returning to the same area where we had fished the weeks before. Our…
