July was an incredibly busy and productive month. The weather was very cooperative for which we are thankful. The inshore bite remained steady in spite of flood tides and extreme heat. As previously reported, the Shark bite was crazy good and the Tarpon are offering just as much adventure. August will be prime for Shark/Tarpon so call soon to reserve …
June 2016 Fishing Report
June was a CRAZY good month for Shark and expect July to be the same if not better. The Shark bite offered big adventures for families and adrenaline junkies alike. Grown men were begging for mercy as the big boys put some drag on the reels they won’t soon forget. Tarpon have been spotted and should be here in full …
May 2016 Fishing Report
FULL MOONS, MEMORIES, AND FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING We fish over 200 days a year and ultimately there will be full moons during that time. Some people want to know if we will fish during a full moon. The lunar phases do present changes and challenges in the fishing environment, but not enough to keep us away. Whereas some people …
April Fishing Report
After the winter transition the inshore bite has picked-up and the fish have stabilized in a more consistent pattern. Trout are moving into the shallow waters around rips, jetties, oyster beds and grass points. Live shrimp are their meal of choice and we are fishing through some short Trout to find the new 14” keeper size. A few Bull Reds …
The Fish Are On Notice – Bring On 2016!
Lately I’ve had several people ask me if I have stopped guiding. Let’s get that answer out of the way right off the bat.

What Have We Become?
When I was a kid my dad would take me fishing all the time. We weren’t rich. We didn’t have a nice boat. Hell… at times when didn’t even have a boat at all. We fished in anything ranging from neighborhood ponds to rivers and creeks. We didn’t have smart phones and we didn’t bring cameras to document each and …
November Fishing Report for Georgia Coast
This season has certainly been weird as nothing has really been on schedule. The Tripletail showed up a little later than normal and never really were that impressive. The Tarpon fishing was good but never got really good. The Cobia run was a dud. Bull Redfish just sort of “sputtered”. The good news is that the Trout fishing has been …
It’s Bull Red Time.
It’s that time of year to catch trophy Redfish, also known as Bull Reds, Old Drum, or Bulls. We’ve obviously had some crazy weather but of course the big Reds don’t mind. It’s just a matter of having a day that we can safely and comfortably get to them. The good news is that there are Redfish to be caught …
Fishing Report for Third Week of September 2015
Sometimes making predictions about fishing can leave you looking a bit silly and I hesitate to say that any particular time is going to be good. The last thing that I want is for you to go burn your gas and waste your time because I said it would be a good time to go. Well I’m glad that my …
