“Fish Killâ€

Seawater temperatures have fallen off considerably, 5-8 degrees depending on what time of day you take a reading. Most fishermen don't pay much attention to changes in water temperature, but the fish are aware on each degree change. The cooling waters have prompted kingfish to start migrating south ...

I take individual reservations, some people can't get a whole group, so individuals book for $125 a person. I have gone out with one or 5.

Come on up and slip in on a Wed. Special. It is great that it is cooling off and the days are getting shorter. The wife thinks 5 to 7 days straight on the water, 14 hours, 100 degrees is the same as sitting in the office. :lol:

The dog days of summer appear to be coming to a close judging by the fish activity. The inshore banks are exploding with spanish mackerel and bluefish so thick a trout doesn't stand a chance at grabbing a bait. Capt.
