Trip Summary

Capt.Rich Fishing out of Burnt Store Marina in Punta Gorda Forida reported an excellent Snook bite through out Charlotte Harbor. We have been targeting snook and reds along the bushes, points and cuts and there are fish literally everywhere. With water temps in the upper 80’s top water plugs are being hit very aggressively making for some exciting action.Placing the presentation close to the cover is key right now. While we have been off since the spring Tarpon season ended we have been busy updating the boat and performing maintenance. It’s been great being back on Charlotte Harbor and seeing how well it’s fishing. We will be back in full swing starting January 1st so if your interested in booking your winter fishing adventure reach out to us here at FishingBooker and get your dates before they get away.

Our Redfish Special trips have been very popular since we started this offering and clients like Kurt and Haylie took advantage of the opportunity to knuckle down on some truly exciting Redfish action. March is here and we are heading into spring and the bite is going to get even more amazing as the water warms up.
