November is the month of golden reds!
Each year I look forward to the annual fall redfish run, and
the start of this one has topped them all. We had another cold front on Tuesday
and that’s a good thing, because these reds like it cold. Over the past two weeks,
I’ve been on the water frequently mostly with clients and a few times with
buddies enjoying some fun fishing for myself.
There is nothing like fishing our annual redfish run. These fish are large and
in charge, and they put up a fight that you’ll never forget. More fish have
come over the gunnel this November than in years past. And not only have we
caught more fish, the fish are averaging much bigger than past years. The next
10 days look great weather wise and I’ll be out each day with clients having a
blast, I’m sure. Watching their faces is priceless when they see how big their
fish is when it pops up from the blue waters of Pensacola Bay.
I think they enjoy the running and gunning to get to these
schools just as much as catching them. Sometimes we have to run fast to the
schools of fish to get there first, and that’s where my Triton 240 LTS comes
into play as far as ride, stability, and speed. I can get you to the fish fast and safe and the ride is so smooth
you’ll be hooked up before you know it!
Please keep in mind this trip is not a meat trip; it’s
strictly a catch and release trip as these fish are too big to keep per Florida
Regulations. So that’s why we take extra care when we release them so they can
swim off to make babies and/or be caught another day by maybe you!
Thanks for stopping by. If you’re on Facebook become a fan
of my business page, and keep up to date on what’s happening in real-time when
I’m on the water or what’s happening each day.

November 12th Pensacola Fishing Report
I'm going to keep it short as I think the photos will tell the tail !
It’s been a redfish extravaganza over the past two weeks.
This has to be one of the best starts to the annual redfish run I’ve ever
seen. So far on most trips anglers have
been catching double digits. We’ve had some 20 and 30 fish days. Today’s trip
(11-12-2014) we boated 32 reds and only had two anglers on the boat. These reds
are big averaging about 18 lbs – 22 lbs with some topping the scale over 25 lbs
and every once in a while we boat one over 30 lbs. Over the past few trips
we’ve had a couple fish over 41”. These trips are pretty much all catch and
release trips.
We are getting another major cold front in the middle of
this week and that should really turn the reds on, as if the bite could get any
better.
If you would like to experience this awesome fishery, give
me a shout. I’ve got a few days left open in November, and December is getting
pretty booked, but there are some spots still left open.
Thanks for stopping by, let’s get you hooked up on a
Trophy Redfish today.
