Faye is gone..Now is the time for the bite to go off the hook (8/24/2008)
[Fort Pierce,FL] With the passing of Tropical Storm Faye, fisherman here on the Treasure Coast of Florida are looking forward to a phenominal bite. Weedlines and temperature changes offshore and a circulation of bait inshore should make for some of the best fishing the next couple of weeks.

Great fish catches can be had if you work for them (7/22/2008)
[Fort Pierce,FL] We fished this past week and proved that the fish are in the area however you have to change up technique and work for them, however the end result is quite a few hook ups and fish to the boat.

First charter out of Miami a HUGE success (7/04/2008)
[Miami,FL] With being a new charter in any area you always worry about not being able to get on the fish. Even being one of the top dogs out of our home port in Ft. Pierce and consistently producing fish you still have those worries.

Last day of the west wind bite (5/27/2008)
[Fort Pierce,FL] As anyone knows who has fished the East Coast of the United States a West wind that has blown that direction for a week or so absolutely kills fishing. Debris and weedlines are not allowec to form except for the deepest of depths, bait schools stay out deeper and it's just hard fishing. However clients still want to go fishing on these calm west wind days and try to find fish.

Even though windy, still catching fish (3/08/2008)

Hot and cold fishing (2/25/2008)
[Fort Pierce,FL] Offshore fishing this Saturday was definitley hot and cold. You would be in one area and finding fish and move slightly out of the area and catch nothing. However we did end up with a fair catch coming to the docks.

Back country fishing productive (2/18/2008)
[Port St. Lucie,FL] We started the morning out with a "wolf pack" of hungry Jack Crevalle hitting everything in their way as we rounded the first corner of the North Fork. Launching out of Rivergate park and heading south into the North Fork, we knew this was the start of a rod bending day.

Power Plant Flats (2/17/2008)
[Jensen Beach,FL] With the numerous fronts bouncing in and out of the area fishing on the flats now takes more patience. The fish are much more lethargic and not as apt to make a long run on a bait.
