I wrapped my week up fishing with the Conforti guys today meeting them up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp early. The weather had cleared from yesterday and it was a bit cooler but winds were expected to pick up as the day went on. We made our first stop over at Tyger Island fishing the logs with jigs and live shrimp but the first area p...

I was wondering who was crazier me or my guests for wanting to fish this morning especially when I stepped out of the house and it was pouring rain. I got the boat ready to go came in for some coffee and as I headed to the bait shop it was still raining and they were surprised to see me or anyone else heading out to fish. But the forecast called...

I fished this morning with Glenn and Patti Langford knowing we might get wet. We met down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp and  headed up the Nassau all the way to Broward to fish the first of an incoming tide with jigs and live shrimp. The first spot we stopped at didn't produce anything but nibbles but as we moved down the way we began to get bite...

Boy what a wind we had yesterday! I had to cancel the trip with winds 17-20mph plus but we thought we could get one in today.

Oh boy what a beautiful chamber of commerce type day we had today.

When I stepped out side this morning in the dark to get the boat ready I was a bit surprised by the wind still kicking.

I went back in  and checked the weather and it was about right -14mph at the time dropping to 12 as the morning pr...

That first stop was around at...

On March 7th 2024 we had a 12hr trip with some return customers from Texas. These boys were so much fun and love to fish! We started by jigging some live cigar minnows and spanish sardines.
