On days off we still fish!! We went down the beach with family and friends on Saturday in hopes of seeing a big tiger and we did just that! When the rod slacked up and started to slow roll I immediately turned to one of my clients who happened to be in town on a job and was hanging out with us! Him and his crew have been on many trips with me but they’ve been plagued by blacktips and bulls so this was the fish he’s been after! Kevin did a great job fighting this fish from the harness...

Kevin did a great job fighting this fish from the harness from start to finish and made quick work of her! Once on the beach we were able to get a quick measurement and taped her out at 12’2”, an absolute beast of a tiger!!

Fishing has remained great. Drum have been steady with the old weather and when the temperatures warm up the trout bite is pretty solid. Reds have been mixed in.

Fort Pierce has been producing very well when the weather allows us to get offshore. Sailfish are in good numbers and are being caught on a regular basis. Mahi, Blackfin Tuna, King Mackerel are also around as well and being caught in good numbers once you find them. There are also a few Wahoo being hooked into as well. The bottom fishing has been nothing short of great with limits of "flag" Lane Snapper being caught as well as some nice Mangrove Snapper, Mutton Snapper and Cobia.

As winter approaches us the artificial bite real fires off. With water temps in the low 60's I've been targeting muddy flats with scattered grass. Reds are still holding to the shoreline with warmer days. Trout have been hanging on the edge of these flats in waist deep water. Look for your cleaner water with bait activity. Follow your bait you will find the fish.

    Went with Jay on Jan 19, 2026. He was very amicable and told us just what to expect. We ended up with a limit of black drum. The reddish decided to be a little more skittish. Overall, a really nice day and pleasant experience. I would definitely recommend a trip with Jay!
