Today I fished with Andy and Jennifer Aberle meeting them out at Semore's Pointe and launching in their beautiful 25' Pathfinder boy what a fishing machine! We eased around the corner made a short run down thru Nassauville and set up to fish jigs and live shrimp on a tide that was just starting in. I was hoping to catch the last of an outgoing bu...

I wrapped my week up and it was a beautiful day to do it! I met Peter Brown and his Wisconsin fishing buddies Shawn and Jeff - down at Sawpit as the full moon set. We ran up the Nassau all the way to Broward Island and the water was slick as ice not a rippled. We set up at the island and tossed jigs and live shrimp on a tide that already been com...

I had the Mathe Fishing Team this morning Jerry his son Greg and grandson Henry. We met down at Sawpit late morning with the sun already up and clear skies to greet us on a high tide that was just about to start out up at Nassauville. And that's where we made our first run to easing up at a large drainage to break out some float rigs and live shr...

We're having a beautiful week of weather this week and today was no exception when I met John Fredericks and his fishing buddy Dan up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp. We eased out of Eagans Creek then made the run over to the outside of Tyger Island and set up with float rigs and live shrimp with plans to fish the marsh grass as the tid...

Although it was a bit cool to start out with the day ended up being beautiful and the temps warmed nicely to make for some comfortable fish catching! I had met David Vice and his fishing buddy's Gary and Lee out at Oyster Bay dock early and we made a long run back down the Lanceford up the Bell and thru Tyger basin around to the outside of Tyger...

I wrapped my week up fishing with Murray Bonitt and his son Dan and friend Gavin...and some dude named Darron that nobody knew. We met early down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp under cloudy skies but we had very little wind (but enough to keep the gnats away) so as we headed up the Nassau River we had high hopes of catching some fish. I haven't f...

That was some wind we had the last two days. 20mph plus winds so I was off. Carol and I walked the dog downtown and then down to the Marina and boy was it ugly out there! But those winds dropped last night and this morning greeted us with only 3mph sunny and cool temperatures in the high 40's boy what a pretty day! I met Dick Conley and his crew...

February is usually the slowest month business wise each year. It’s mainly because on average it’s the coldest month of the year and with that comes cold fronts which brings rain and wind. If we get some weather windows in February the fishing can be very good. From December through March Black Sea Bass is […] The post February Fishing Was Solid!...

Today's planned fun fishing trip turned in to a busting of the Bragging Rights! Needing some fish for my Amelia Island Life Long Learning class's fish fry I planned to fish this morning with my wife Carol and our neighbor and friend Wade Kirkland. We got an early start picking up bait at Amelia Island Bait and Tackle then making our way out to Go...

We've made this three times during this past winter and taken to a party once and it received acclaim! Not much to the recipe just some good old comfort food on a cold winter's day! Sorry no seafood in it... Ingredients: 1   lb dried Black Eye Peas                                                                                          2    32oz...

I last fished with Dennis Fritz his wife Adele and their visiting friends Jon and Jessica meeting themdown at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp. We were supposed to go early but when the alarm went off and I got up it was pouring rain! Luckily this group was able to go later so we postponed the trip until 11am. After the safety orientation we eased just...

It was forecasted to be a nasty day and it didn't disappoint!  Overcast skies sprinkling rain on occasion and cooler temperatures greeted us at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp when I met Mark Averbuch and his fishing buddies Gerry Mathe and Paul Clark.  The good news was that the wind wasn't blowing so we made our way up the Nassau to make our first st...

we'd of ate pretty good! I met Glenn and Patti Lanford mid morning today with plans to fish the last of an outgoing tide first of an incoming. We ran up the intra-coastal up the Nassau and made our way to a large runout where we pitched jigs and live shrimp. I wouldn't call it on fire but we caught a good handful of hungry Seatrout - they all ran...

Long John weather!  Low mid 30's with wind forecasted to be 14-16 mph (they were right!)  I met Gene Burk and is nephew Aiden down at Sawpit this morning with those conditions but we did have sunny skies all day so we made the most of it. Our first stop was around at the bridge where we drifted slip float (trout) rigs deep back to the bridge pilin...

What a cold windy and dreary day it was that greeted us when David Vice and his fishing Team Gary and Allen met me out at Goffinsville Park this morning.  For me it was a toss up whether to try and fish today with winds forecasted to get up to 16mph. But I had a Plan! So we met and made a long run up and thru Horsehead into the intra-coastal and...

Oh what a pretty day we had today! It was kinda cool but only a two layer day and the sun was out with no real wind- the water early was like glass. I had met Henry Ross and his son-in-law Devon down at Sawpit Creek boat ramp and we made our way  up the intracoastal and then up the Nassau River to fish a dock at Seymore's Point on the very first...

Fishing the day after Valentines you hope that the catching will make for a sweetheart kind of day and today turned out to be pretty good!  I had met William and Dara Blalock out at Goffinsivlle Park early and as I was launching I was treated to a really cool sunrise. The tide had been coming in for about an hour so we made our way up river to g...

For a awhile there we were thinking we might just be on a fishing trip not a catching trip! I had met Ed and Maddona AndrewLavage up at Old Town Bait and Tackle early this morning. We had dark and gloomy skies with the clouds blowing north over the ocean. But the temperature was almost shirtsleeves weather with a promise from the forecasters of it...

I was back fishing today when I met Nick Burke and his fishing partner Sajia down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early. There was a bit of fog but it didn't affect the visibility so much that we couldn't make the run up the intercoastal and turn into the Nassau. We then made our way up to Seymore's Pointe to set up at a large drainage on the very...

We had a better tide today and warmer water temperatures and it made all the difference in the fish catching action. I had met Dennis Fritz and his fishing partner Jim down at Sawpit Creek boat ramp early and we ran up the Nassau River (which was like glass) to make our first stop at some docks with plans to fish the pilings on the first of an i...
