Had a great day sight casting some nice fish around Boca grande with Scott Hocking,one of my weekly assassins. It was a sun filled day that was most enjoyable poling the beautiful back waters of Charlotte Harbor aboard my little skiff. We caught lots of good size trout along with a few redfish,the snook seemed to evade us most the day.
The 10 forecast looks incredible and will produce some awesome fishing in the coming weeks. With spring and Tarpon season right around the corner the calendar is starting to fill up for season so don’t hesitate to get a your trip booked.
