We hit the big three on today's Crystal River charters with Buck Norm and Larry on board. The day began free lining live shrimp around the rocky points and finding a couple red fish. The tide was dropping fast so I didn't have to much time;

The cobia were sure happy today but it sure took a while for the grouper to turn on. Today's Crystal River charter I had Mike and Kathy on board for some grouper digging. The team and I fished some of the shallow ledges towards the North today a

Without a doubt the best trolling bite of the year so far and the Barlow team had a beautiful limit of hefty Crystal River gags by 11am. What can I say some days are more special than others and the grouper action for us today was fantastic. I exclu

     The fishing is still hot.  The Spanish Mackerel are still very thick in the 20 to 30 foot deep areas off the beaches and around the reefs.  Your best bet is early morning; watch for the birds feeding and the mackerels ju

You can have some success catching grouper in my region by trolling lipped plugs in some of the deeper channels and holes around Tampa Bay as well as along some of the nearshore hard bottom areas but the majority of anglers who target these fish cha

A fine winter day out of Crystal River with some great guys. Larry Henry and John were on board and we did a little inside and out fishing. We started the day using DOA glow jerk baits around some kelp grass patches in 3ft of water and on a couple d

The great weather continues for us here in Citrus County and today was another good one on the big pond. I had Cam and Justin on board for the day and the action was great. This charter was just about a mirror image as yesterday's trip but I did

What a day with Mishel and Earl on board for day two and it was some fast and furious grouper action. I was a bit worried with today's weather forecast but we gave it a try and I'm glad we did. I kept it simple and trolled some breaks. The t

A very pleasant day offshore with Joe and Joanne and we caught the big one of the year... "so far". I picked up the couple at the Plantation on Crystal River and we made our way West. I ran out a bit deeper than I did yesterday and the bite

Only a couple hour window for us today to get the trip in; but the fish were on the feed and it was AWESOME. Bob and Nancy joined me for the day and we left the Plantation on Crystal River at 8am to begin hunting red fish. The red fish action was ab

After being as sick as a dog on Thursday and unfortunately cancelling my charter I was back at it today. I had the West party at the Homosassa Fishing Club and we did a offshore inshore combination. The trolling action was perfect for the grouper to

I had the pleasure of having Shane solo on board and for today's trip we caught some nice trout and grouper. The trout bite started our day and we caught a bunch but most were on the short side. We worked as a team and eventually put some nice k

Well folks today the fog was thick as peanut butter and it was a wet chilly ride. The team of Karl Tom and Stephan were game and we eased our way through it. We safely made our way to our trout destination and jigged up a fine limit of trout with Mi

What an incredible day to be offshore. Calms seas top to bottom visibility and the grouper were on! I had my dear great clients Mishel and Earl on board for the day and as a treat they asked if my wife Becky could come along and join the fun. The da

South wind 5 to 10 mph seas light chop. Heading out of the South cut today straight out to Three Mile mark. Fishing has been consistent recently catching good numbers of nice size fish and the same goes for today. Filled stringers with key west snapp

July 15 2013 The past few days the Lady Pamela II fleet has been bottom fishing on the deep reefs and shipwrecks off Ft. Lauderdale. The grouper fishing has been particularly good with lots of Warsaw and goliath groupers bending the rods. We are als

Another stressful day behind the wheel with the dense sea fog offshore. Dan Joe and Lauren were with me for the day and we cautiously eased our way off Crystal River and began the day on some fantastic trout action. We eventually reached our locatio

A day for me to get creative on the grouper fishing as it was howling pretty good right out of the West for some rough conditions. I had the Miller party on board out of the Plantation on Crystal River and grouper was on the menu. I was a bit worrie

A picture perfect day offshore Crystal River with Hazel and Bill on board again and we had a ball. This was a catch and release trip so I was just as excited as they were " I was wanting to check on the grouper". We trolled over just a coupl
