Hot Fall Bite
Hot Fall Bite
Nov 12, 2016 Bay Pines
Fall near shore action is in full swing. 4 hour Charters are producing Spanish Mackerel, KingFish Snapper and much more. Finding the birds this time of year is key to finding the Spanish Mackerel and Kingfish. By Trolling on the outside of the bait pods with artificial baits the Kingfish can't resist. Bottom fishing has been hot as well. Mangrove snapper, KeyWest Grunt and Hogfish have been found on natural bottom. Using Shrimp and small pieces of cut bait. Using light spinning gear and # 1 or 2 circle hook and 1 Oz weight. Book your next near shore charter with Catch On Charters! Tight lines Captain Kevin

Summer time pattern is in full swing. With a quick run out to the summer time near shore action. You can bend a rod on some Mangrove Snapper, Flounder , Key West Grunts. Along these reefs we have came across some monster Goliath Grouper and Tarpon. We have found cut white bait placed on the bottom have been getting the better snapper. While with little or know anchor heading, slow drifting over these reefs have produced some great action. Book your near shore charter today !!! Captain Kevin,
