Snooking - After a brief interval the Snook returned
It's nice hearing the sound of reel drags burned
Four slot sized yesterday and others came to play
But my clients 32 Redfish was the fish of the day

Snooking - As anyone who knows me knows
I never BS about fishing & that's how it goes
The Snooking lately has been down
Causing me to wear an unusual frown
The cold has continued to affect the fish

Consistent bite - The last month has been surprisingly good almost every day. Redfish catches have been in double digits often. Snook continue to eat, even post-frontal. Sheepshead have been plentiful along with a nice push of black drum. We've got some cooler weather more...

Estero Bay Report - The bite continues to be red hot in and around Estero Bay. The backbay is teaming with redfish and they are chewing on shrimp tipped jig heads thrown around the mangrove islands and oyster bars on higher water. The key seems to be finding good movi more...

Snooking - A couple days ago with James Snooking was poor
Double digit Snook but nothing big for sure

Sheepshead is where it's at.
December and January seems to be all about the sheepshead and rat reds with some snapper and small trout to even it out. I've been looking for the nice reds in Matlacha and all I've been on are rat reds more...

Snooking - The last couple days were rather windy
The Snook were piling up and consequently
Our rods were bending and reel screaming
When a big girl jumps it gives the day meaning
We landed double digits on each day
A 31 and 33 Snook were more more...
