Capt. Eric Tim, Robert, and Bill
Tim, Robert, and Bill are from Lakeland, Fl. Tim and Robert fished with me 2 yrs. ago. We met up at Capt. Hiram’s at 7 a.m. then we went and caught some croakers for the day. The tide switched to outgoing around 8 a.m. We Snook fished for a bit but no luck. The winds were calm and the sun is hot. We netted some nice crabs on the outgoing weeds. The Reds were coming to the surface and feeding. There was a lot of boat traffic and they were right on the edge of the channel. It was a little difficult but everyone had a good hit. Tim hooked up and landed his which bottomed out my 30lb. Boga. I guessing around 40lbs. It was a monster.
After the Reds stop coming up we ran the beaches and played with the Bonita. That was fun. Everybody caught a Bonita. Tim’s was a nice one about 12lbs. We fished the wreck for a bit and hooked up a few Snook but could not land one. We also had some big break offs. Goliath? Tim caught a Black Drum on a crab. Robert caught a nice size Jack. Bill caught a few sharks. That was about it for the day. It was fun and filled with action. Thanks guys, see you this week. Hopefully the night bite will be on as well.
