June Red Hot for yellow fin Tuna
Ran across a school of whale sharks covered up with tuna. Ended the day with a limit of snapper.
Redfish Topwater Popping in the Shade
I had two days of fishing with Carlyle and with great weather the first day it wasn’t a problem getting to the big fish grounds and even sticking a few of them. Day two presented a challenge with overcast skies and varying winds from calm to 15+mph. We decided to stay close, mostly due to […]
Trophy Redfish Hunter From Japan
I had Mr Tadayoshi Sakurai on board for a stretch of 4 days. Although he knew little english he did bring a translation book that he gave to me after i tried to explain left, right, 11 o’clock, etc. So I looked up some directional words and went to work. The only words I focused on was left, […]
Solo Scout Trip = Some Great Stills
Headed out on my own to get some footage of these beasts swimming around and maybe sticking one or two. The weather was on and the fish were there. Here are some stills that I thought came out pretty sweet.
Color Blind Yet Seeing Red Fish
Had the pleasure of fishing with John and Gary these two days and with decent weather and decent tides we made our way to the big fish grounds. With dirty water pushed into the gras spotting fish was hard, even with the ability to see color. Gary had a great first day catching four fish […]
Spring Big Redfish?
Although spring is not typically the big fish season we still have been able to target them. We have had great weather enabling us to run farther and fish each spot more thoroughly. Here is another addition to the Dirty Thirty club with Matt Scriven’s 31.5 lber.
Key West
Well the weather was perfect, the tarpon were there, but we just couldn’t make it happen. We did get this nice size bull shark to eat and also picked up a snook in the everglades on the way back. So it wasn’t a complete failure.
Spring Redfish Action
Spring fishing is here. The grasses have grown high enough to filter the water and the slot fish are happily swimming around, some singles, some doubles, and some in schools of 10 or more. Spring fishing is a different game then big fish. Fly presentation is much more difficult when you have to compete with […]
More Late Season Big Redfish
March 18 After scouting this area for the past 3 days with the other group I stumbled upon a really good looking spot at the end of the third day. With water on the rise I knew it wouldn’t hold up for long. So I made one last trip to the area. As soon as […]
January – February 2012
January is usually Southeast Louisiana’s peak big redfish season and these pictures are proof. February was tough this year with less then desirable weather but we managed to get a few good ones.[nggallery id=7]
