Today was a beautiful day to be on the water. Today I was lucky enough to have two charters. My morning trip was Father and Son tandem Mike and Mikey Goolsbay out of Oklahama. These guys were looking for a few fish to eat and alot of good fights! We started out on the North Rocks and the bite was a little slow. We picked a few nice sheepies for an hour or two. Then like someone hit a switch we started hauling fish over the sides. We caught several small Snapper and a few small Grouper as well. With an hour or so left on our trip we decided to switch gears and try to catch a few Redfish. With an insider tip from a good friend we quickly hooked the two we needed and called it a day!
For the afternoon trip I was joined my The Hastings Family. John, Katherine and John from St. Louis. These guys wanted to try and catch some large fish and feel a big fight. I loaded them up and made short work of the long run back to where I had a bit earlier caught the Redfish. When we arrived we found the fish still there and still HUNGRY! We quickly hooked and landed two and then had trouble keeping the last one we needed hooked up. After a lot of chasing and hard work we managed to hook and land one more fish! With sore arms the Hastings informed me it was time to go land a few Sheepies for dinner. We quickly landed the four fish they had requested and turned the boat back East towards the dock. Today was a fun and exciting day and reminded me why I love being a Guide!!
