August 2,2009

Been having alot of trips this week for the jetties and Deep out to 70 miles out. On the jetty trips we have been bringing in some decent specks,and sand trout,and slot reds, Bullreds are picking up and biting pretty good also. Out deep I have been bring in some big kingfish,limits of nice snapper up to 18lbs and some nice 6' blacktip shark. The water has started to heat up more than normal on the 50 mile trips all the mahi are at the tidal rips out about 62 miles and when have sure been bringing in nice limits of them last trip we boated about 80 chicken dolphin. Ling are out deep I am guessing the water temp has so much to do this and come sept this fishing should be better closer in at 50 miles. We have been hitting the shrimpers and banging the fish when we can get through the sharks. Blackfin are holding out about 80 miles so are the big wahoo up to 100 lbs.

Had a family of 7 for Monday which we had to split up into 2 trips the ladies did a jetty and the guys went for red snapper. First time I have ever done a trip where we hit dock split up and went back out to let the rest fish. Bascially a statewater trip is what we ran having 18" snapper keepers at the reef and bonnet head sharks and Bullreds at the jetties. Travis's mom did managed a 6' blacktip got to the boat and when Randy hit the gaff that was all she wrote that shark was green and came alive breaking the line. On this trip we used 40 lb. test not my usuall 80 lb. Lynn is posting photo's. No doubt these people were fisherpeople and could feel the bite thanks everyone Randy and I really enjoyed having you guys onboard.
