The Weather Outside's Delightful.... - The weather is finally warming up, although the winds don't quite want to quit. (But we're not complaining!)
Last week I went out with two buddies to test the waters, heading south on the Indian River towards Wabasso. We started with a steady pic more...

March Winds True to Tradition.... - Last week we worked all the local hot spots on the flats in the Indian River. The action was definitely on the slow side, but we brought in some sea trout, a Spanish mackerel (which was a tasty dinner treat for Bonnie and me), and a few other fish more...

Fishing is less than lukewarm.... - Winds have been active almost every day this week, and the few boats that have ventured out have been coming in with paltry catches. The nights and early mornings down here are still quite chilly, and the local fish seem to be seeking warmer spots t more...

Warmer Weather, Lukewarm Fishing.... - It's finally begun to warm up in our area, and we've been out only twice in the last ten days.
Today the highs were in the low 80's, and we fished with locals, Jack Balme and Rick Pino. The action was on the slow side, but we did manage to bring in more...

No Fishing, No Catching This Week... - Right now the only thing we're catching down here is head colds. Between the low temperatures and the high winds, there was only one day this week that was tempting to local fishermen.
Tonight (Wednesday) wind-chill factors are expected to drop t more...

Cold Weather This Week = Lukewarm Fishing .... - It's been cool all week long, but local fisherman/friend, Jack Balme, and I tried our luck in the Indian River for a few hours last Friday. When we first tested the water, the temps registered 58°, but at least the winds were calm for the first time more...

Following the Call of the Reds.... - We tried our luck yesterday in the Sebastian Inlet--myself, along with locals, Rick Pino and Jack Balme--after hearing news that large redfish were being caught during the first hour of the incoming and the outgoing tides. Unfortunately, we didn't s more...

Great First Trip of '09! - We had a My Bonnie first-timer aboard today, Patrick Plankenhorn of Buckeye Lake OH and Melbourne FL--and we had steady action throughout the trip. The day started around the Indian River islands, with a nice passel of sea trout--caught on shrimp more...

THOSE WINDS JUST WON'T QUIT.... - We sailed at 11am this morning, with comfortable temps, but persistent SW winds 10-20 throughout the trip. Because the winds have been with us for four days, the water levels were extremely low.
Aboard were Mark Francis of Sebastian, Harvey Luthe more...

Good weather is back, with good fishin'.... - We were out three times last week and got pompano, trout, jacks, and some nice ladyfish--as well as many sail catfish around John's Island, with one weighing 7 pounds.
The water has warmed up considerably, and we've had a few days with no signific more...
