Mason Miller

Member since October 2021 Clearwater, United States
Background
I was born in Ohio and at the age of 2 I moved to Florida. I have been fishing these waters from the young age of 5. In the 6th grade I decided there was nothing else I wanted to do and that I wanted to be a private guide. Since then I have been doing everything to accomplish that.
Techniques
We fish a plethora of water which means our style is always changing to fish the particular area we are in. When fishing bridges we always use knocker rigs and the occasional float. When fishing offshore we fish with knocker rigs, trolling rigs, lures and floats. When we are inshore we fish floats and lures with the occasional knocker rig.

Winter Fishing This Past Week
Winter Fishing This Past Week
Dec 2, 2023 Clearwater
Captain Mason and his clients embarked on a 6-hour fishing expedition this past Saturday, leaving a lasting impression with an exceptional haul of diverse and spirited catches. Offshore Expedition: The journey kicked off offshore, where the team targeted big gag grouper. The offshore action was nothing short of extraordinary, with the clients successfully hooking into numerous impressive gags. The pinnacle of the offshore adventure came with the landing of a very nice 27-inch gag grouper. Excitement filled the air as a couple of potentially even larger fish tested the strength of the gear, leaving lasting memories of the ones that got away. Notably, a 21-inch red grouper was reeled in six miles out in 30 feet of water, adding another highlight to the day. The clients also caught two keeper grey triggerfish and a plentiful bounty of quality Key West grunts. Tactics and Techniques: The offshore success was achieved using large pinfish as bait, strategically dropped in approximately 30 feet of water. The choice of bait and depth proved to be the winning combination, enticing the gags to bite and leading to an unforgettable offshore trip. Inshore Adventure: As the trip transitioned inshore for the final hour, the action continued unabated. Over 20 redfish made their way to the boat along with a permit, providing an exciting climax to an already fruitful day. Shrimp and cut bait were the baits of choice, and the redfish eagerly responded. Over all the winter fishing has been some of the best that we've seen in years!
