Bite was a little slow today for us but managed to get on a huge school of big big redfish. Caught a total of 5 and everyone of them were over 34″. The biggest today was 39″. Had my clients Jason and family today from Canada and they were done after 5 big bruisers. We ended up going trout fishing after that and had a nonstop bite. Bite is still good in the Tampa bay.

Had to get out this morning to capitalize on the permit bite that my buddy @jasonstock has been raging about! We only had about a 2hr window this morning before it got pretty nautical out there for us. But went 2-3 on permit and had an awesome time. Book your trips.
Was nice to finally get out after all the rain. Had an awesome day with Paul from England-Chicago today with his family also. Went to try and catch a permit and got literally spooled by one. Only permit bite this morning. Caught some nice mangos, triple tail and lost a huge barracuda. Then pushed back inshore and caught some snook to cap the day. Very hot and flat calm all day.

Had my clients Steve and family from Lake Okeechobee on board today. I tried to talk them out of going fishing today due to weather but they insisted that they had to catch some fish. We ended up catching a bunch of small snook, trout and jacks. We lost a monster snook in the middle of a downpour. Was a sight to see! Steve and family were troopers today.

Had an awesome time today fishing in not so awesome weather. We managed to stay dry for most of the day. Started the day off going 1-1 on tarpon and got a nice surprise from a gag grouper in the mix. Also caught some nice over slot redfish as well. Had clients Tim and Grandson Chase from Pennsylvania today fishing. They were true die hard fisherman. They were not about to let the weather stop them. Great day on the water with awesome clients. Fish are still chewing. Book your trips.
Had my clients Dotty and Dan on board Wednesday for a little red fishing. Awesome trip once again. We started the day off dodging storm after storm and even getting rained on a little. We ended up catching a bunch of over slot redfish and then moved on to dust the trout. Was a good fun day despite the weather. Book your charters. Fishing still good here in the Tampa Bay.
Friday afternoon was an awesome trip. Had my clients Mike and friends from Illinois down to enjoy a little afternoon bite. We had an awesome time catching a variety of fish.
