Spring is here, with inshore waters heating up for plenty of sharks, red drum and starting to see cobia.

Been banging reds. That's about all I have until the water warms and the migratory fish show up. Cobia should be around and the triple tail around Jekyll island should be going good now with the water getting in the upper 60's.

Had a trip last week and we got on the sheepshead pretty good. They are great for eating and a 5 hour trip is usually perfect to get plenty for dinner.

Reds are chewing and happy when sun is out. Stripers are the go to on cloudy days. I haven't been out on the water too much so as of late it has been so nasty out.

    Captain Stratton and his crewman were outstanding ! He setup a great plan for our six hour trip and executed it perfectly. We caught our fill of fish and had a great time doing it . I would recommend him to anyone who wants a great day on the water.

    Dave did an amazing job getting us on the fish. We caught more than we had hoped for. What a treat. Mo was so great to keep my pole baited , which was a full time job until I found my groove and learned out to fish this way. Was a fantastic day. They took great care of us!!

    Not only was his communication top notch, but he had us on fish within the first few minutes of dropping lines. Great knowledge of the water ways, great teacher, and both on board were beyond friendly and could keep us entertained. We will be booking with him again!
