REDFISH BLITZ!

The Bite is On, hence I am back on the water looking for 1 or 2 anglers who are looking to experience a SUBPERB Day of Fishing on the St. Johns River. Over the holiday weekend Bull Redfish and Black Drum fishing was OUTSTANDING aboard Blue Cyclone. The depicted fish were taken on Artificial Lure's but I tend to fish with both lures and natural baits. I'm expecting to tangle with plenty of Spotted Seatrout, Flounder, Tarpon and more in the upcoming weeks. Traditionally this Great Bite on the St. Johns River continues through October. I'm looking forward to sharing 25 years of Inshore Charter Fishing Experience with you in my Native Waters of Jacksonville, Florida.

Mike Powell is an experienced angler that prefers to target Trophy Fish with Artificial Lures. Mike and I departed St. Johns Marina boat ramp at daylight. There's nothing like the sound of a brand new MERCURY ProXS starting up at sunrise. Within minutes of our first stop you could hear another great sound, Mikes DRAG was SCREAMING We were using 5 inch YUM Sonar Minnows and they were a perfect match for the forage in the river. Mikes 1st two fish were absolute giants. Unfortunately they broke us off, but we ended up going 3 for 5 on bull redfish. All 3 fish were true trophy fish over 40 inches long and all out bites were on artificial lures. Mike caught 2 and insisted that I catch one. Our arms were cramping and we probably could have caught more but we decided to take a boat ride and scout for tarpon knowing our chances were slim this early in the summer. No Tarpon this time but it won't be long.

2 Little girls got to skip school to go fishing with their Daddy. The Flyn Family caught a Grand Slam which consists of a Redfish, Spotted Seatrout and Flounder here in Northeast Florida. In addition we caught multiple flounder, lost a snook and we were greeted by a pod of manatees. Bottlenose dolphin followed us around the St. Johns River throughout the day. It was a gratifying day for us all.
