Redfishing with friends

My old roommate had never fished inshore before, but after watching so many episodes of (insert fishing show name here) he wanted to go catch a redfish. So with that being the goal, we set set off to mark a species off his list. We didn’t have to search too long before we saw reds blasting bait on a sandbar. These fish weren’t just eating, they were in a full blown frenzy! All you could see were bronze colored backs, 4 inches out of the water, and small mullet running for their lives. One properly placed Berkley Gulp Shrimp on a jig sealed the deal. Luckily I had another friend on the boat who was equally interested in our goal, and allowed me to get hooked up as well.

Banana River Sea Trout

Blind casts pay off. Many times fan casting a flat we are sight fishing on produces great results. Here’s a nice spotted sea trout this junior angler caught on a Gulp! jig combo. The Banana River has a large population of sea trout and I love to fish for them. As the weather cools off big trout will start populating the flats and often will eat large top water plugs and live baits. Give me a call if you would like to go chase them.

Port Canaveral flounder fishing

Certain times of the year flounder fishing in and around Port Canaveral can be on fire, give me a call to see if they are biting. I really enjoy fishing Port Canaveral and off the beach because you never know what you might catch.

Redfishing charter with kids

Pair of Red Drum for the boys

Some days everything just works out on the Banana River. Slick calm conditions, great anglers and chewing fish. We found a nice school of redfish and Henry and John took full advantage of the good fishing. Between the two of them they caught 9 redfish in an hour. I consider that good fishing and it’s always rewarding to get some great kids and their grandfather out on the water. MAKING MEMORIES.

Here’s a series of pictures from their charter.

Got another one on!

Trout fishing Charter

Here’s the highlight of Saturday’s chart in the Banana River, Florida, a 25 inch sea trout. Fishing was tough but we stuck it out and caught plenty of trout and unfortunately broke off some very nice fish on some local docks. I look forward to fishing with Travis and Brian again.
