Meet up with Phil Ackley shortly after the gate opened and found a path through the mangroves using all  3 inches of  draft on my kayak. After a couple of hours with little action, I tossed a shrimp up into a tailing red and this one took the bait. Broke my rod in the process on boating the fish. Measured on Phil’s board at 29.5 inches.

State the length and species in the box below Left at 0930 at the last minute when weather seemed to clear.  Went 28 miles to 50 ft of water at deepest spot.  Caught many short gags on frozen threadfins and live pins.  Ended up with 6 keepers from 24 to 30.  My best of the day was a 30 inch gag on my spinning rod.  What fun.  Had a neighbor catch some grouper for the first time.  Kept a couple grunts and a mangrove.  Mark C and I cleaned em all up the next day.  Yummy gag grouper.  Thanks Kevin

Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below A group of FOC members braved the cool morning temperatures for the chance to have ‘A fun day of fishing’ it proved out that eleven FOC members made a wise decision.The morning temperature was brisk, but within a fleeting period it became a gorgeous Fla. morning.The day held lofty expectations for a Gag onslaught, to be garnished by plentiful side dishes of taco producing Grunts.Well, the fishing was a tad slower than expectations, but the good times were plentiful – and the FOC Club held its own vs. the rest of the boat.The day started out with fresh brewed coffee and breakfast sandwiches that were killer’.The Two Georges captain stopped and picked up several dozen pinfish before heading north of Hudson fishing waters 30’-60’.All told there were thirty-five fishin’ customers on board the Two George’s. The FOC Club had eleven members that made the trip, those being – Dave Gullickson, Frank Bellizio, Bill Herr, Rhys Taylor, Denis Surette, Bob & Sharon Cohen, Gary Melton, Dave Taylor, Jeff Goldstein, and yours truly Terry Reelitz.So, the tide/current was a tad lazy and the winds a little brisker that expected – the end result was a bite that was slower than expected. The captain worked his butt off with multiple drops and not staying on a spot that didn’t produced bites.For the day, the entire boat only caught 6 keeper Gags, and threw back about another 8 or so shorts. The FOC Club held its own by catching 3 of those keepers and releasing another 4-5 shorts.So, the deal was that FOC group had a friggin’ blast – the day turned out toasty warm and we stayed outside for the most part swapping stories, tellin’ lies about fishing and just having a great time.We  need to do this again in December!!!!!A ‘good time was had by all’

State the length and species in the box below Went to Anclote River fished the islands, started fishing at bottom of low tide, wind picked up, cold front came in. No fish and headed back to flats as tide was on its way in. Hit some mackerel, ladyfish, trout and bonnethead. Fished with live shrimp. Fun day, lots of laughs and time with friends and family! Even had my brother christened in the cold water!

Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below Denis Surette and I headed out for a day of inshore fishing from Tarpon Springs at about 10 am.  It was still an outgoing tide but the water was high.  We first headed up the Anclote and fished a few of my favorite spots but could even buy a bite.  We through live shrimp and plastic.  We trolled out to the area near Miss Vickie’s and gave it a shot but nothing happen here either so we headed out to the area near marker 5.  We fished this area all the way out to IC marker 9 and all we could catch were very small trout, puffers and lizard fish.  Not the best of fishing days but the weather was good and the seas calm.  It was a good day on the water fishing, not catching, with a friend, it doesn’t get any better.

Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below Dave Taylor invited Terry Reelitz and myself to try to find some kingfish, and other various species.  We left Port Hudson Marina at about 7:30 in a complete fog, so bad one could not see the channel markers.  But we idled around at the mouth of the marina for about 15 minutes and decided to go for it.  We ran to 30′ where Dave & I had previously caught kings, but the difference was on that occasion we had or were able to catch some blue runners on site and today it wasn’t happening.  So we settled for grunts while trying for hogfish.  A couple hours of this, we went to another of Dave’s hot spots in 50′ where I managed a mango and two legal gags.  Terry managed 4 or 5 short gags and Dave had one short.  I also brought a short hogfish to the boat.  Terry and Dave were having a contest to see how many Toadfish they could boat.  When the bite slowed, we went to 52′ and marked a number of fish but nary a bite so we called it a day and left for home at 2:00, arriving back at 3:00 and had the fish and boat cleaned by 4:30.  Great day on the water, Thanks Dave

Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below After last night’s meeting butch and I decided to try our luck  fishing today. We hit the water at 8am at the dock of the anclote with high hopes of getting something to bite our baits.The tide was going out so we headed to a spot we use to go too but haven’t fished  in a long time. Parked the boat and and two casts later a good size red fish on my line . Butch followed with a nice fat long trout . We haven’t seen them this year like that. Left the site and went up river a little bit but never got anything of size so we tried the edge of the river with some cut bait ang got a real  nice big cat. It was a great day for butch’s boat so off we went to our few spots on the flats.We listened to the guides last night  and went looking for some spots . Low and behold we found what they were talking about. The tide was turning and We started drifting in about 8ft of water going over water that changed depth  between 8ft to 4 ft back up to 7 ft back down to sometimes 3 ft . There really wasn’t a bite in the deep water but once it got shallow bang it was like look out . Nice lady fish,big fat trout . The water was a lot warmer in the shallow with the sun out and the fish decided to bite our gulp bait.It made our day a great day of fishing .
