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 ...
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...
Spring Break and March Funsies
It is late February and we are heading into the March Spring Break transition. Right now we are deep into some great fishing opportunities and Spring never disappoints with the opportunities of getting in on a great diversity of adventures. It is just a matter of figuring out what your group wants to do and having the right conditions to get it done! It's difficult to predict what we will catch...
January -February 2017 Outlook
Geeze, I just realized I didn't publish my January post! I forgot to push a button!! Here is what you can expect for the remainder of the month going forward through February. Getting right to it, fishing in January/February can be great! Winter and Spring is traditionally our windy season and the weather is the deciding factor in where we can go and what we can do. When it is nice we have op...
Magnificent November
It's always good to live, work and play here in the Florida Keys, but November has to be one of my favorite months. It is a transitional month, so there are no rules for this or that. Everything is on the move and the wind is switching directions more frequently, so it is tough to answer my customer's questions about what is biting a week from now. It is all about taking advantage of opportunit...
April Update
I'm finally getting around to writing a report and I see my Spring Break report never made it to completion. That's alright; the gist of it was highlights of lots of great trips we had in March. April brings warmer weather and more great opportunities with hopefully less wind that comes with out winter/spring transition. We are nearing mid-April now and we have a lot to look forward to. T...
Off Season is Opportunity Season
As soon as the kids went back to school, things got really quiet down here. The weeks of flat calm summer weather have continued past Labor Day and seems to be the dominant pattern. This time of year we commonly see a few minor tropical systems that cool our waters down with rain and wave action, but not the case this year. I have been recovering and resting from the busiest seas...
Of Wind and Wahoo
I did a little back reading on my previous updates before I began to write this as to prevent any repetition. I have a challenge here to keep this fresh! Fishing and diving this time of year can be spectacular, but we are always at the mercy of the conditions on the water. It is all about the wind this season. I understand your trip with me is about fun and a comfortable day on the water. The e...
February 1 Update
Welcome to the winter roller coaster here in the Keys! I am very grateful we aren't buried in your snow storms, but we get some of the chaos too in the form of wind and cooler than normal water temperatures. It's pretty hard to complain about a sunny 70 degree day, but what happens on land and below the water are two different things! In the water activities have been challenged by 65 degree wa...
Broken Record October 10 Report All Good!!!!
We have entered October quietly and things in general are on the quiet side. We, as locals, closely look at the tropical weather patterns this time of year for potential disasters as our Atlantic hurricane season winds down. A while back, Hurricane Wilma arrived on Halloween and fed on our really warm waters to give us a devastating weak Cat 1 Hurricane that caused too much damage for what it ...
