July 21, 2008 fishing report




Hello All,
The past few weeks have been very hot , high water temps and slow fishing for the big fish inshore 4 hour trip. Although a few trips have seen some nice permit to 26 pounds ,that's been it for catching big fish within 10 miles of shore.
That's not to say we cannot go out and catch fish ,you just need to fish a 8 or 10 hour day to get to the cool water offshore to catch Big amberjacks and grouper and sharks. Then you will catch big fish, but don't ask me for big fish Right Now on a 4 hour it's not going to happen. Even the barracuda on a half day were not cooperating.
OK, ....what I have been doing for my 4 hour people is catching them delicious snappers.Mangrove and key west snapper have been very good and they are 30- 50 plus keepers for a couple hours fishing on a 4 hour trip. They are also catching short red groupers, trigger fish ,porgy and others. The action has been very good and we use a very light setup to catch them so its lots of fun for all. That 's been it and I am just waiting for the mid august Spanish mackerel and tuna run. That will be a very good time to come out. We will be casting live shiners of our boats and chumming the fish into a frenzy. Usually happens every season after the July full moon which was last Friday the 19Th.
That's all folks!
Enjoy your summer in spite of all the crap you see on tv ..Get out of the house !!!!!,
Tommy Tinacci
