Where are the fish?" | Tiberias - 22' | 02/04/12

This is a question I often get while working here at the store. I sent a youngman named Larry Spainhour in the direction that I had spotted several redfish earlier this week. I told him that I knew the fish were there, but getting them to bite was another story. I shared a few tips with Mr. Spainhour that might encourage them to bite, but you never know. Being quiet, using light gear and working a bait slowly is a great recipe for success this time of year. Mr. Spainhour sent me a text messege at 11am that clearly showed that the fish were cooperating today! Thank you Mr. Spainhour for reporting back to us! I believe Mr. Spainhour caught 6 red drum and 1 black drum in just a few hours. All fish were released to be reckoned with on another day! An absolute true sportsman! See ya on the water!

"Green Moon Strikes Again!" | Tiberias - 22' | 02/01/12

Headed out Wednesday morning as the winds were slight and right for searching the flats for fish. I struggled to get over a few sandbars as tide was extremely low. About the time I was ready to throw in the towel, I noticed movement to my left. Several reds were moving along an oyster bar about 30 feet away. I made a cast about 10 feet ahead hoping to intercept. Bam! A 23" red slammed it in full stride and the fight was on! Absolutely awesome to see it all unfold in 2 feet of water. The rest of the group scattered and headed to an unknown location. I moved on, spotting a small group of five reds, but they were not interested. I moved a little further and a couple of 10 inch flounder slipped out of the mud. A few more yards and a few nice size trout spooked to my right. The flat was alive! Unfortunately, I could not get anymore fish to bite, but it was great to see them. See ya on the water!

Our water is super clear right now and this color has been smoking them here of lately. Come by and check it out! See ya on the water!
