The past two trips afforded my clients to a great combination of experiences. We ventured off shore in the morning and had some incredible King action. As soon as I pulled up on my GPS numbers I saw the Kings in the crystal clear water. I threw out some live greenies for chum and the water came to life with Kings exploding and jumping all around the boat. For the next couple of hours we literally have King fish on with every cast. On the second day the Dolphins moved in and chased them away for about 45 minutes but that gave us a chance to catch a 6 foot black tip Shark.

When we had all the Kingfish action we wanted we came in a caught very large Redfish. The average size was about 30 inches. This was followed by some great Snook action with a 37 incher as the biggest but most were undersized.

What a great time of year to be able to have such a diverse fishing experience in one day !!
