Several groups got out on the water with us this week and the Spanish mackerel were chewing. Out of Apollo Beach the rods stayed bent around the platforms most of the morning, and out of Palmetto it was glass calm with the mackerel stacked up around the towers and the dock tables covered by lunch. One angler was on his first saltwater trip ever and left with a story he will be telling for years. Redfish are schooled on the flats, trout on the deeper grass, snook sliding toward the rivers with a few weeks left in the season, flounder...

One angler was on his first saltwater trip ever and left with a story he will be telling for years. Redfish are schooled on the flats, trout on the deeper grass, snook sliding toward the rivers with a few weeks left in the season, flounder on the sandy edges, and the sheepshead are getting thicker on the pilings every week. Light wind and highs near 80 Monday through Wednesday, then the first real cold front of the season comes through Friday with lows in the low 50s Saturday.

We were finally able to get out this week after being blown out for 3 weeks. The water quality is improving. Live bait has not been available so we have been doing some bottom fishing and catching kingfish, mahi, mutton snapper and mangroves. More sailfish should move with the coming cold front.

Catching a few flag yellow tails. Congratulations to Russel catching his personal best yellow tail on Thursday. It was a 23 incher

Hope everyone's doing well! I just updated my schedule for November 🤙

The fishing has been good lots and lots of bait around with cooling water temps. Seeing sheepshead and sea trout move in still snook and redfish around. Also the "mullet run" has started in our area, so there are giant schools of mullet in pre spawn

Captain Troy was fantastic!!!! He got us on tons of fish. First time deep sea fishing and what an experience!!!! All four of us hooked onto mahi mahi at the same time and were so excited!! Dereck, the first mate absolutely worked his tail off keeping bait on all lines and helping us haul in allllll the fish!!!! We caught black fun tuna, mahi, and even a wahoo! Banner day, couldn't have asked for a better fishimg charter. If you dont wanna be disappointed book Capt Troy and the Miller Time boat!!

What an awesome experience. Kevin is fantastic! He knew the water and the fish and we had an amazing experience. Caught snapper, ladyfish, jack, snook, and even pivoted quickly to a lemon shark when we knew one was near by. It was a memorable adventure and I would highly recommend Kevin! Kevin also knew the area well and we went to the Lazy Lobster to have our catch cooked. So much fun! Thank you Kevin!
