Well my wife made me take vacation, and I’m sure you’re all feeling sorry for me as I spent two weeks in Costa Rica soaking up the sun and doing a little different type of fishing than I typically get to do on the Gulf Coast. I caught the biggest non-edible fish ever and had a blast doing it. But probably the best part was the couple we went fishing with from Holland landed a HUGE Mahi Mahi (or Dorado to the Costa Ricans) and just like on my boat-I was tickled to watch him reel it in and proud for him as it was the biggest fish he’s ever caught. Nice job Olaf.
But as soon as I came home I was out on the water fishing with my FLATS CHANCE CHARTER boat , within 24 hours. On this trip we limited out with 3 Redfish for 3 Clients and releasing about 12 more we decided to try for some Trout. As luck and a bit of skill would have it we landed 15 trout with no problem using artificial jerk baits.
So with a successful scallop season coming to an end (Book now and claim the biggest bivalves of the season), Red fishing will be RED HOT in September. So if you’re planning a trip to the nature coast in September, Red fishing and a little Trout fishing should fill up your dinner plate.
And my specialty OFFSHORE TROLLING for Grouper is excellent in late September and early October and your SHALLOW WATER CASTING starts off strong in September as the Gulf temperatures begin to decline in temperature.
