Haven't posted a report in a while, been meaning to just been really busy lately.
So far this fall has been great, the cooler temps have made for some great redfishing and trout fishing. Redfish have been in large schools and when located double digit days have been pretty common, along with the redfish schools the large trout have begun to show up in force. Trout over 20" are common with plenty of fish into the mid-upper 20's.
Also got a chance to do some kingfishing which was a great experience, we caught kingfish, bonita, spanish, sharks and even jumped tarpon.
I've been targeting flounder as well, fish in the high teens have been common with fish over 20" being caught pretty regularly.
Also, be sure to pic up a copy of this months Onshore-Offshore magazine for an article by yours truly!
I'll let the pics and the captions tell the stories!
Tony with a good red, found a school of over a 100 fish this day
Sheepshead fishing has been on fire!
Plenty of tailing redfish around with the low tides
Even gotten into some cobia
Bonnita, just another by catch chasing kings
king fish soaking me yak-side!
Two smokers for me on this day...
Cam and his king posing for a 'kill shot'
My two fish from the day
First two casts of the morning for clients Drew and Clyde in a school of tailing fish, double hook up on big reds! Caught over 50 fish this day!
Big flounder are everywhere, this one was 23", pic doesn't do it justice I'll have to dig up the others...
Me and Cam killed 'em down south this past week, nearly 100 fish, redfish to 34", trout to 27", a handful of snook to 28" and some bluefish and flounder to round out the day!

Hey Spencer, don't want to say I told you so but see how much better a fisherman you are now that you cut your hair?
Nice report, pretty pictures, jealousy inspiring.
