12/10/11 Sprigger Bank Fishing Charter

 | By Seamus on 12/10/2011 2:48:02 PM | Views (113)

Capt. Rick Stanczyk fished Tom and Rick again today for a half day sprigger bank fishing charter.  We left out a little after dawn, good tide heading into the gulf with gentle east breeze behind it.  After arriving at our spot about 45 minutes later we drug the chum bag around a bit to get them going good.  Tons and tons of pinfish out there as usual, dip netted by hand about 50 of them!  After anchoring down on some potholes we started fishing.  Spanish mackerel bite was just about as good as you wanted it, not too crazy where they were biting the knots off every other cast, but a fish every 3rd cast or so.  We caught plenty on just one block of chum, also a nice mix of blue runners, and some big ladyfish at the end, plus random mangrove snapper and sea trout.  Lots of fun action on ultra light tackle rods, a few real line zingers!!! Put some shark rods out but the big blacktips were not biting, water was still a little chilly though back there.  We tried to hit a goliath spot a little further out, but no avail, did catch some more macks out there as well as random mix bags of other things.  Little bumpy ride in for a few miles in the open gulf, as wind did pick up a bit, but thankfully not too much.  Anyways good action packed half day for our florida keys flats fishing trip.
