February 2023 and Spring Break Planning

Thanks for checking in! Here's what I have for you. February looks better than average for weather. We have had mostly no winter or extreme record breaking cold events. Not much about this year has been normal. Not a bad thing, but it has confused my winter fishing patterns to a degree up to this point.

My favorite ...

December is here and we are about to experience a population boom. We have enjoyed a fairly quiet off season and Christmas week chaos is right around the corner. I encourage you to spend some time here on my website to learn about my operation and offerings. I can be hard to reach because I do not answer my phone when I am on charters. Luckily, my website has the answe...

November looking at Christmas Week

Just like everything here locally, do not delay your December bookings, especially rolling into Christmas week. We are approaching Thanksgiving and the increased demand against the weather forecast has stacked my schedule very tight. I expect the same crunch to happen for Christmas week. Now is the time to get your reservation placed for Christmas week and beyond. The ...

January 2019 Report and Outlook

Here we are heading into a new year full of new opportunities and possibilities.  I have been sooo incredibly busy and fortunate to be so in all the right ways.  We are coming off our first real test, as rebuilt islands following Hurricane Irma, serving the massive tourism boom that comes seeking refuge from the wrath of cold winters elsewhere.  I hope the new and returning visitors see the amo...

June Fishing Report, Lots of BIG News!

Never have I missed a monthly report, but May fell away from me for good reasons.  May was an excellent month for all the types of fishing I offer and I kept very busy despite an abundance of rainy and windy days.  Conditions were often close to no go and luck played into my hands many times, but we got all but a few scheduled trips in with the exception of the passing of TS Alberto on Memorial ...

February 2018 Outlook and Update

Turn the page and we are on to February!  It is a big deal here because each month we are better off than the last, stronger than before and get a little further from where we started.  Where we are in relation to how far we have come from the storm is a positive.  Everything is falling in line for better and better things to come.  More businesses are open, more is available for our visitors ...

Newvember 2017 report and outlook

A new month is approaching and November brings good changes.  I think we just saw our last tropical system for this year/season and hopefully the weather becomes a little less abrasive.  Our local water temperatures before the storm were in the low 80's and following this tropical storm we are in the low 70's.  That's a big change!!  This should trigger a rapid migration of fish from the north...

October 3 Update, Hurricane Info and More

Today is a new day in the Keys.  Not because it is a new month or season, but each day we end we begin the next day better off than the day before.  We are fortunate to be attached to the continental United States and the help and resources are lifting these islands back up quickly.  From the Red Cross to the National Guard to hundreds of church groups helping locals clean up, collectively, the...
