Kingfish and Grouper are hitting - The past couple of days the fish have been really hitting. The reason for this is most likely they are feeding hard ahead of the weak front that will pass though today.
Yesterday the bottom action was great with a limit of both reds and gags. Cut more...

Lot's of Action! - This morning there was pilchards (live white bait) everywhere in the surf. Standing on the beach I was watching the mackerel feeding on them at will.

Dolphin fishing time - It sure has been a scorcher the past couple weeks. With the long hot days the Gulf of Mexico's water temperature has been steadily creeping up. By August if you go for a dip in the Gulf it should feel like getting in a warm bathtub.

American snapper and red grouper - Right now our full day trips have been producing some nice catches of American snapper and red grouper. The long run of 35 miles or so is worth it to catch these fish.
On the shorter trips we're keeping everyone happy with black tip sharks, barra more...

June is an Excellent Month for Gulf Offshore Fishining - The month of June has got to be one of the best months of the year for fishing on the gulf.

May is a Great Month for Fishing the Gulf - I love fishing this time if year. As a matter of fact, my wife Melissa and I were out wade fishing along the beach early this morning.

Offshore action is heating up for a boilover - After such a windy March, I'm very hopeful and expectant that April will offer gulf anglers some slam-dunk fishing action. In my opinion this is the best time of year along Florida's west coast and the fishing should be nothing short of awesome over more...
