FISHING REPORT FOR THE WEEK ENDING 8/25/07

by

Capt. Butch Rickey







Although I was on the water, I didn't do any guided trips this week. So, in keeping with the tradition I began a few weeks ago, I present more great pictures/reports from some of great customers and friends from around the country.

Remember Rich and Lauren Parisen from last week? Well, the day after we fished, Rich's dealer group went on a trip with the Edgewater boys. Below is a picture of Lauren with a nice snook caught chumming with live bait in the same spot I had taken them the morning before. Rich said that within ten minutes every guy in a boat out there threw the kitchen sink in that spot. He loves weekends almost as much as do I!

FROM MY FRIENDS!



And, here is another picture of Lauren with a nice striper caught on a recent trip back home in New York!

FROM MY FRIENDS!



Next is a great picture submitted by my long-time dear friend Alan Warran, of Plant City, of his son Trevor with a beautiful 32" snook he caught with his dad on a recent trip in Gasparilla Sound. Alan and Trevor were both mighty proud!

FROM MY FRIENDS!



Here is a picture of a nice smallmouth bass which was one of fourteen Steve Weasel, of Cape Coral, caught in Kennewick, Washington, on a recent trip with his friend Craig Holmes. Steve and I have a trip coming up next week.

FROM MY FRIENDS!



The next picture is from my old friend Ray Ciervo, from Monmouth County in New Jersey. This is Ray and his son Joe with three great stripers running from 20 to 33 pounds, caught in a recent "blitz". Great looking fish!

FROM MY FRIENDS!



Be sure to check out www.BestFishingBooks.com Books and gifts for fishermen from my friend Jim Dicken!
