Another great trips for the books! We headed out Thursday running SW to the grounds. We started fishing at sunlight the next day. Tilefish and more tilefish! Fish were coming over the rail hot and heavy throughout the day. A few snowy grouper and yellowedge were mixed in as well. That night we set up for swordfishing. As we were still putting mines...

Fall weather in Crystal River brings in overcast days cooler temps and epic inshore battles. Targeting Gag Grouper in waters as shallow as 8 feet during the Fall is where...

What a tackle-busting trip!! We left the dock on Thursday morning and headed out west. We arrived just before sunset to get the boat anchored up and lines in the water. Right away the fish started to chew. Landing multiple snappers and gag groupers! At about 1 am Capt Jerry decided it was time to make a move. We set up on the next spot and it was o...

So we left the dock this time on a 2 day golden grounds trip with 12 lucky anglers. Trip left at noon and we made our way SW towards the elbow to do some nighttime fishing targeting various snappers and groupers. Overall the weather was nice but the boat still wanted to swing. Even with this though we still managed a steady pick at fish throughout...

Well we finally got to go out on another 4 day mutton trip after the last 2 had to be canceled due to bad weather. We left the dock and made our way south. The next day around 10am Jerry decided to break up the ride and stop to fish a wreck. The guys got to have some fun pulling on some big amberjacks! It was man vs sea monster and unfortunately mo...

Well y’all we just had another amazing trip. We started off leaving the dock on Thursday with a little bit of weather behind us but knew once we got a few hours south that the wind and seas were gonna lay off. We made our way SW to the fishing grounds and started fishing at sunrise. We started off the trip in the 500-600′ range targeting different...

Great action for today's morning trip with the Platz team. I fish this great family every year around this time and we've been going strong for about 10yrs now. Josh Piper and Rick were my team today and they turned some nice ones. No break offs pulled hooks etc... they were 100% on their game. We fished in the 10ft to 12ft range and all the gags...

So let’s start off with what made this trip pretty awesome. The weather on the first day and night as we rode out to the grounds was bumpy and rocky but in the middle of that first night the weather laid off and we ended up having beautiful weather for the entire rest of the trip. We started out fishing Friday in the 500-600′ range with great succe...

A nice day out of Crystal River with Chuck and Tim and these guys had a fine day. We pulled our bait traps and went to grouper digging. The gags were biting pretty darn good and we had a couple even get the best of us by taking us in the rocks. Chuck and Tim soon enough turned four nice ones and just around noon we called it a day. Great job and I...

Another great morning trip with Larry and Todd on board and it was pretty much just like yesterdays trip. Some fast grouper action kept us busy and by 10am the guys had their limit of good ones. We totaled probably 25 grouper for the morning and beat the heat being back at the dock before noon. Awesome morning and I thank you... Capt. Dan

Some quality gags for Mark and Craig and these guys did awesome. We dropped on a couple different ledges and right out of the gate it was on. We had a double digit morning and turned some nice fish that gave a great tug of war. I thank you both and great job... Capt. Dan

So we managed to get off the dock and tackle this 7-day trip. With tropical storm Fred still lingering in the northern gulf but about to make landfall we made the decision that it was time to leave the dock and start making our way out. For the first 2 days of the trip we made our way in the SW direction looking for the loop current trying to find...

A great trip with Sabrina and Eric and this was Eric's birthday present to catch some Crystal River grouper. Well I didn't disappoint him and the team turned some really nice gags. Before 10am they secured a fine limit and we called it a day to beat the storms and heat. You both did awesome and happy birthday Eric.... Capt. Dan

Well we left them still biting in Boca Grande and will probably get a couple more trips in before we call it wrap on the [...] The post Looking ahead to 2022 Tarpon Season appeared first on Action Fishing Adventures.

A hot grouper bite for the Millennium Metals team from the East coast and they sure did well. The bait traps were loaded today and we had an awesome trip. Nothing to fancy just dropping live pin fish on some ledges and "wham" grouper on. The guys turned all their fish and six fine gags came on board. Great job and I thank you all... Capt. Dan

Another hot one but a good one with Terry and Jamie on board. These guys were ready to go and did awesome. We turned four really nice gags for a limit and released several others too Live baits on bottom rigs were the deal for us and I thank you both for a really fun day... Capt. Dan

Well vacation's over and it's back to work time. I'm easing my way back into trips and today Dan Lauren and Big Fish Bob were up first. We had a good trip caught four really nice grouper and had a couple get the best of us. Dropping live baits on the ledges did the trick and we wrapped it up around noon. With the oppressive heat right now I'm just...

Well we made it through yet another red snapper season! The weather on this trip was very good. We had a little more wind than the average trip recently but it wasn’t a bad wind. Still had bright sunny skies throughout the day which made for a nice trip. Once again we were able to locate and land our full limit of red snappers and they were all nic...

So we just finished our 4-day red snapper/ kill it all trip. We had some awesome weather throughout this whole trip. Had a Lil’ bit of rain mixed with bright sunny skies and warm/hot weather. We didn’t have hardly any wind till our very last spot on the trip. We started the trip with motoring about 90 miles out to target red snapper but it didn’t w...
