Happy New Year! Hard to believe January has arrived, wishing everyone a healthy, happy fishing season. Cold arctic blast for south Florida is long gone, back to fun in sun. The waters are warming up and the fish are happy.
Tarpon fishing is turning back on water temperatures are rising triggering the silver king’s appetite. Outgoing and first of of incoming great times to target tarpon near channels and points, using live baits and DOA Terror Eyz. The tarpon are ranging in size from 5 to 50 pounds.
Snook fanatics the linesiders are abundant in channels and along mangrove shorelines. Live baits and Rapala twitch baits entice the strikes. Sea walls and docks holding snook, also bridges great area to locate bigger snook.
Jack cravelle have really shown up taking residence near channels and deeper holes. Small minnow schools have been abundant so the jacks are crashing these schools. Drum, snapper, bluefish and permit have also been around for anglers to tango with. Shrimp and small jigs near bottom get the strike.
Well that is the fishing report for the past week. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!

Happy Holidays! Hope everyone had a great Christmas. The past week brought cheer, presents and very cold air to South Florida. Arctic blast!
The past week brought extremely cold air to the south Florida area. Snook fishing slowed down a bit as water temperatures plummeted. Snook were being caught, along seawalls, docks, channels and on mud flats. Live shrimp and DOA 3” shrimp great baits to get the strike.
Big schools of jack’s presented non stop action for anglers. DOA C.A.L. 3” shad tail, live baits and Rapala skitter walks all enticed jacks to strike. Bluefish, mackerel, drum, ladyfish, and snappers, also striking baits, creating rod bending action for anglers.
Tarpon fishing was great before the front, as the front pushed through the tarpon locked down in deep cuts and channels. Once in a while, you would get a strike using a live shrimp or a Doa Terror Eyz.
Well that is a fishing report for the past week. Hope you all enjoyed. Remember you cannot catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!

Happy Holidays! Wishing you and your family a great Christmas. South Florida is finally getting some cooler weather getting anglers and fish in the holiday spirit.
Back bays and canals are great areas to target tarpon using live baits and Rapala twitch baits. Deep channels holding bigger fish. The high outgoing and first of incoming tide, great times to tango with the silver king.
Snook are being found in deep holes and along docks and sea walls. Live baits and DOA C.A.L. 3” shad tail best baits to get the strike. Fat snook and tarpon snook have been mixed together, adding for a mixed bag for anglers.
The channel’s and deep holes have been areas to target schooling jacks ranging in size from 5 to 10 pounds. The jacks are aggressive striking Rapala skitter walks, creating awesome surface strikes. Mixed in with the jacks are croaker, drum, mackerel and ladyfish.
Well that is the fishing report for the past week, hope you all enjoyed. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!

Seasonable weather has finally returned to South Florida. Moderate temperature days have made for great fishing and clean water. Fun in the sun and drag screaming action.
Clean water has made tarpon fishing exciting as anglers can sight cast to fish along channels and docks. Live bait and DOA Terror Eyz excellent choices to entice strikes. Mangrove shorelines are holding juvenile tarpon on the high tides, live mullet or small Rapala twitch baits get the strike.
Big schools of jacks have shown up and they are hungry. Top water Rapala skitter walks have been the anglers favorite choice bait for explosive action. DOA C.A.L. 3" shad tail and live baits also get the strike. The jacks are ranging in size from 2 to 20 pounds.
Channels and deep holes are holding a plethora of species for anglers to hook up with. Mackerel, snook, snapper, drum, blue fish and sharks get the drag screaming. The clean water has made it fun for anglers witnessing the strike from the fish. Does not get any better. As the water temperatures drop the fishing will continue to thrive as migratory species call our local waters home, for the next few months.
Well that is the fishing report for the past week. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines.

Captain Bob and Mate Kenna were great hosts. They made our trip so memorable with their combined knowledge and experience. The dolphin fish was such a great fight! The tuna was a challenge as well. Can’t wait to book another trip with Captain Bob again!

Craig was knowledgeable on all important topics!!! water conservation fish conservation changes in and on the land of waterways we traveled. We were together for 4 hours. He was attentive fun quiet yet had local tidbits to introduce to us. The best part was being located in the quietness of the mangroves with birds fish and NO MILLION DOLLAR MANSIONS!!!!. Just nature. Every fish was cared for with kindness and returned to the sanctuary where they came from!!!!!!!! We visited many different fishing spots and caught different varieties in each locale!!!! Craig is wonderful thoughtful and an experienced excellent captain. We highly recommend fishing with him. I have to say he almost got a hug from me at the end but I restrained myself !!!!!! Thank you soooo much Craig. Cheers to your future. . The Pultz family

Trip: Jupiter Snook & Tarpon

My family and I had a freaking BLAST with Captain Carlos and Reefs to Rivers! He is an absolute professional; very competent, extremely knowledgeable, and great with kids (even a 5 year old little girl who couldn’t have cared less about hunting iguanas - he made her the official “retriever,” which she loved lol). Carlos put us on tons of iguanas and the action was hot and heavy. We added this hunt onto the tail end of a Disney trip and my 10 year old son said it was better than anything we experienced at Disney. Highly recommend to anyone looking to give iguana hunting a shot (pun intended). We will be booking with Captain Carlos again soon - he is the real deal.

We had an awesome time with Craig. Had 3 generations of the family out with my grandfather, 3 year old nephew, and brother in law. Craig was fantastic with my nephew given he runs the local kids fishing camp. We started out catching bluefish out of school Craig had been patterning. Then we cruised down Palm Beach to a few spots where we were catching tons of different species on almost every drop. Craig knew exactly how to keep us engaged and catching fish, and also showed us some cool spots like the houses on Palm Beach Island and the Viking yacht. Will be back, thanks Craig!
