Fire Truck Sized Red Grouper
Capt Jay Schroeder of CJ Flats Saltwater Charters reports Cheaper fuel prices make long runs chasing bigger fish easier on the wallet. Nearshore Captain Jay has consistently produced fire truck sized Red Grouper on frozen sardines dropped down off the backsides of a natural ledges.
Once the bite was worked into a frenzy, Capt Jay has been switching over to live Pinfish and working large Gag Groupers to the surface. In December Capt Jay reported having to sort through several smaller Grouper to land the keepers, but so far in January the number of short Grouper has been significantly lower.
On one recent trip, Capt Jay was forced to take a 45 minute intermission from bottom fishing as large King Mackerel paid homage to the Pinfish free-lined off the backside in the current. Although not a target species this time of year, the occasional Smoker makes nice runs and provides all aboard with some entertainment.
And if you are a true glutton for punishment, just say the word and Capt Jay will target bruiser (literally) Amber Jack on any one of several shipwrecks off the Sun Coast… For more information or to book your next saltwater adventure in the Tampa area, contact Capt Jay Schroeder at 1-877-463-4520 or visit www.cjflats.com.
