I felt pretty confident this morning that we'd catch fish today but I was thinking maybe a nice Redfish and surely a good handful of small Seatrout. As it's been all week it was a beautiful day - sunny no wind and just a cool nip in the morning that warmed to shirtsleeves temperature as the day went along. I met Henry Ross Dick Conley and David...

The beautiful days just keep coming! And good fishing too!  Today I ran over to Oyster Bay to pick up David Vice and his neighbor and friend David Williamson as the sun was coming up. The tide was high and coming in - we eased out of their marina and ran back down Lanceford and up the Bell to set up on a point of grass with plans to toss float ri...

Another beautiful day this morning albeit a bit foggy -I had to run slow up the Back River to get to our first stop at Pumpkin Hill after meeting Walter Mann and his fishing buddy David down at Sawpit Creek boat ramp. But when we arrived at Pumpkin it was clear enough to fish so we began drifting float rigs with live shrimp on a tide that still h...

The last time I fished with this guy I got the uneasy feeling that he wouldn't be back. But he was back today with a vengeance. I had met David Vice Lee Warren and their buddy Gary out at Goffinsville Park early this morning on a tide that still had about 45 minutes of coming in. We headed over to Pumpkin Hill and set up to drift floats (bobbers...

For the second day in a row we slayed the Black puppy Drum!  I wrapped my week up today when I met Todd and Debbie Johnson up at Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp. We eased up the creek and got between two docks and pitched to the pilings on a tide that had been going out for a few hours. Baiting our jigs with live shrimp and tossing them up be...

It was a first for me fishing Cul De Sacs today! I had met Laura (birthday girl) and Alex Winter out at Goffinsville Park early this morning. As I was waiting for them David Nease walked down and gave me a report from his fishing trip with his son yesterday - they had wore out the Seatrout! I assume David was fishing deep with slip floats' and li...

Cool weather this week had us rescheduling trips for later in the month but today we just waited to mid morning to meet up at Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp. After we got Mickey and Brandi Kelliher settled on the boat we eased down the creek to make our first stop at some dock pilings on a tide that had been coming in for a couple of hours. T...

This recipe comes from Chef Kolby Kash...just in time for the holidays! See his website   Ingredients: A pan of day-old cornbread (if you need to use fresh cornbread crumble it up on a cookie sheet and bake it for a few minutes until it is dry and crispy.) 2 large celery stalks chopped...

Eight trips in six days will wear an old angler out! I finished up a long week of fishing and boating when I met Jason Ash and his young son Anthony down at Sawpit Creek early this morning. It was Anthony's first trip with me but not his first saltwater trip - he'd evidently fished in the Keys earlier. But he was out with his dad here at Amelia I...

..but the Trout did come thru for us this morning. I had met Sam Brown his father Dennis and Sam's girlfriend Tany up at Old Town Bait and Tackle early this morning with a tide that was high and still coming in. It was a beautiful morning as we eased out of Eagans Creek then made our way up and around to the Jolley River where we eased into the b...

These will be short - it's getting late and I've got a trip early tomorrow... I fished with Cal early today meeting him out at Goffinsville Park boat ramp for a fishing trip and then a tour of the area - he's a new property owner and wanted to check the river out. We hit Twin Creeks down the Nassau and drifted floats with the current - Cal caught...

We waited for the tide to turn before we started today - I met David Bolton and his grandson Michael over at their dock on Lanceford Creek at 9am - the tide had just turned and started out. It was a beautiful morning with sunshine clear skies and just a slight breeze. We didn't go far - we came around to Soap Creek and fished a large drainage wit...

Boy what a beautiful morning! I met Bob Kossman and his friend Shelly down at Sawpit Creek early this morning - that time change makes it perfect for these cool mornings. We ran up the intracoastal turned up the Back River and made our way around to Pumpkin Hill - set up today where the sun's glare wasn't so much in our eyes and it paid off. We h...

We kicked off the week (and month) with a trip out of Goffinsville Park this morning when I met brothers Gordon and George Piasecki early. Gordon had brought along a couple of crab traps to try out at each spot we fished and it worked out pretty good. We made a quick run over to Pumkin Hill on a high tide that still had about 30 minutes of comin...

I fished Friday to wrap the week up - it was a bit cool when I met Willam and Dara Blalock out at Goffinsville Park. We made a good run down the Nassau and thru Horsehead and over to Poteat Point to make our first stop and I'm glad I had my heavier North Face on!  The tide was still up so we went with float rigs and worked the grass. Not much was...

It was a bit chilly today! So much so that I ditched the fleece and went with the insulated North Face and I'm glad I did! I met Bryan Roach and his fishing crew William and Shane up at Old Town Bait and Tackle and after easing out of Eagans Creek we made a run down the intracoastal to fish some structure on a tide that had been going out for a c...

The weather cleared up for today although it was a bit crisp when I met William and Dara Blalock and their friend Brian out at Goffinsville Park this morning. We had a tide that still had a few hours of going out so we made our first stop just down the river at some docks to fish a small creek with jigs and live shrimp and minnows.  There wasn't...

There was no real rain forecasted for today but it misted the entire morning. The horizon stayed foggy and it was a bit cool which made for a dreary day to be out on the water. BUT the fishing was great! I had met Ray Pinkston and his fishing buddies Jim and Tommy down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early and we then made a short run up the Nassa...

I've got a short week with prepping for the AIGA Inshore Classic - Captain's Meeting tomorrow 6pm at Old Town Bait and Tackle. We had a bit of wind to deal with today but my anglers Mike and Sharon Conlon were up for the challenge with support from their pup Foxxy!  We met up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp and eased out of Eagans Creek...

It's almost downhill when your first fish of the day is an oversized Redfish! I had met Scott er and his father-in-law Gary down at Sawpit Creek late this morning - we wanted to take advantage of some warmer weather and an outgoing tide. It was at the top of the tide when we arrived up at Pumpkin Hill and set out float rigs as the tide eased to...
