December 16-31 2023 Report

All right finally the worst of the weather for this month was largely over and December 18 was the last day of the High winds and rain. The last two weeks of the December have been really, really good with just about anything we want to catch being caught. This second half of the month I was absolutely swamped with trips and I can't recall one trip that was slow with one surprising exception. The one exception was Scott and his son Logan, where we had absolutely perfect conditions for bonefish, tarpon, permit, snook and anything else you can imagine and yet it was an absolute wasteland with nothing around. 

However, with that being the exception fishing has been on fire the second half of December. To emphasize this point, on December 29 I fished with repeat client Kevin and we did really well on a number of different species and wrapped it up landing a really nice bonefish as we targeted them for the last hour of the trip. And then to ring in the new year on December 31 I had David and Kevin, a different Kevin, and we got what they wanted, bonefish and mutton snappers. What an awesome second half of the month it's been! Happy new year, everyone!
