Snook bit has been really shaping up. Lower water temperatures are making these fish start to chew. Big schools of reds showing up and lots of oversized fish.

Going out with Captain Brad was a great time. He is a no nonsense guide who went above and beyond to get us on the fish. Even in not so great weather, he made sure we all had a great time.

I brought my son down for a weekend of cast and bkast. We soent all day Sunday with Captain Vasiliy aka The Russian Redneck. He runs a very nice wellcraft center consolw. Boat is in great shape with lots if room. We met at the boat launch around 0745 and after quick introductions we shoved off. A quixk stop at a marina baitshop on our way and the day began. We hit an area on tge way out fir maybe 30 min to catch some live baitfish and puahed offshore around 8-9 miles. Over our 8 hour charter we moved to several locations. If a spot got slow, pulled anchor and off to another. I didnt count total fish caught, but several dozen grunts, at least 15 grouper, a hog fish, some others im nor familiar with. We lost a couple big fish. Guessing they were goliaths. I will absolutely go fish with him again. If youre looking fir a friendlt captain who keeps you on the fish this is the one.

We had a great time out on the water with Captain Jerry! He made sure we had ice, water, and plenty of bait. The weather kept us inland a little bit but he was flexible and moved to where the fish were. Our boys were very excited to catch two sharks, two pufferfish, a catfish, and several other types of fish, some of which we were able to keep for dinner. Thanks Captain Jerry!
