October is in full swing! Nights are a little cooler, the water temps are down some. It’s an awesome time to be on the Bay! Tides were back to more of a normal this past weekend. We found a few willing Stripers in the shallows. There’s still some Redfish around and speckled trout have shown up again. Fishing on the reefs in deeper water we are still catching spot and hard heads. You have to weed thru a lot of them to get some keepers but they are there. We also are seeing flounder. We had 5 flounder on Sunday afternoon unfortunately no keepers. We also had a King fish. But you don’t know unless you go. Patterns are staring to look more like fall time. Fish are feeding up for the winter. We have dates available so contact us and get on the books before it’s too late.

Started the Friday morning with a nice Striped bass right out of the gate. We were using 3 and 4 inch paddle tails casting to structure. We covered a lot of area but the bite was slow even though we had overcast skies. Once the sun popped out and warmed things up a bit, found some willing Redfish biting. These fish have become 1 of my new favorites. They have a subtle bite until you set the hook. Then it’s game on. They fight hard and try to run. When they are feeding their tail turns blue. It’s so beautiful against the gold colored skin. They are also very delicious. These fish have really made a big showing in the Bay this year. I really hope they stick around for years to come. Saturday we hit a different area looking for Blues And Macs. A few Bluefish have made their way up along with a few Spanish Mackerel. It’s been a trolling game to find them. Occasionally we can find some to cast to also. We boated some nice ones before the front came with high winds. So we moved back up into a tributary and switched methods. Sure enough we found a small Speckled Trout and more Redfish. These Reds and Specks will stick around until the water gets pretty cool. I think we have a ways to go for that yet. The Striped bass bite will also start heating up more with season change. There’s still a lot going on to fish for. Book a trip to create your Nauti Hooker memories and have a good time.

Well folks it’s August. Hot weather is back.The weather looked ok for Saturday but was iffy for Sunday. Saturday we saw some repeat clients. That is always great to have.It was their yearly family vacation fishing trip. As usual we started catching bait first. A lot of small spot and some croaker mixed in which we throw back. The spot is what we want to use for live lining for Rockfish. After gathering enough we ran to structure where we were catching when the seasoned closed. Rockfish season was closed for 2 weeks and just opened back up. Another boat was already there and nacho red but that’s ok plenty of room everyone. We set anchor and started dropping baits back to the structure. It wasn’t long before we had our first bite. It was a nice big catfish. They were hungry and chewing for sure. They gave everyone a pretty good fight. After a while we had another bite that was a little different from the others. This one was a runner. Yes sir Kelsey pulled in a 23 3/4 inch Rockfish. They finished the day with 12 catfish and 1 Rockfish.Everyone had a blast just look at that little one sleeping on the ride in. Plum wore out form reeling couldn’t even finish his candy bar.
