Everglades Fishing Charters Fishing Report March 2011
Well, guess everyone is ready for a fishing report. My apologies for being behind on the report, but fishing has been so good I am wore out at the end of the day (isn't that a shame)
The fishing has been good with nice catches of trout, red fish, pompano, mackerel, bluefish, snook, etc. A couple days ago we had the biggest trout of the season (on my boat)...a 24 3/4" gator trout. Now that's a nice big trout. We are catching some nice big ones, most around 18-19 inches. These fish are fun to catch and great to eat. It is nice to be able to take them to a restaurant here in town (or take home) to fix for your dinner as the table fare is great and you can't get any fresher than that.
The tarpon are here but are kind of a hit and miss (my opinion) The weather has a lot to do with where there are and also being able to see them. I guess everyone knows that I prefer the small ones (in Everglades City) as they are more predictable and are a blast to catch without the long hours of fighting one.
However if you do prefer the big boys I have 2 dates left for tarpon charters in Boca Grande....the 26 of May and the 2 of June. This is the time that the tarpon are dependable enough to tournament fish and also recreational fish for them. So if you would like to fish for the big boys in Boca Grande give me a call (239-695-2029) and I will get you booked in.
The weather down is here is beautiful with high in the low 80's and nights in the mid 60's. Really makes the fish turn on as the bait fish are flowing onto the flats and this brings on a great bite of all fish including cobia, tarpon, sharks, mackerel, big trout, etc. When the nights are steady in the 60 with no 50's any longer the offshore snook will start to flow in while the snook from the black water will start to move toward the passes. This should start happening any day now as I write this we will have nothing by nights time temperatures in the 60's for the week.
Last week I saw my first swallow tail kite....this means that winter is over and spring is here....yeah we get to put up the coats and sweaters and get out our summer clothes.
Okay looks like it's gonna be a great spring and summer so it's time to start making those vacation plans. Come on, pick up the phone and give me (Capt Becky) a call (239-695-2029) I would like to take you and/or your family on a fishing experience of a lifetime here in this beautiful Everglades National Park/10,000 Island.
