Custom Charters fishing report 7-28 Houma

[Fishing Report]

Well snapper season has come and gone with great results on big snapper all season. We strived to keep only 10 pounds or bigger snapper and we probably averaged 12 pounds for the season on snapper. Lots of 14 to 16 pound fish with the largest for the season at 25 pounds. The mangrove snapper were the ticket for the year though. They kept the fish box filled with snapper sense you can’t keep but 2 red snapper. The cobia fishing was totally phenomenal with limits coming easy during June. We even got some video of us hand feeding cobia after we had a limit in the box. Both Capt. Tim and Capt Tommy made sure all of their customers were very well taken care of and had lots of fun catching fish. When you are ready to fill the box with great eating fish and have a great time doing it call Custom Charters, 985-851-3304.

Sense the red snapper season has ended I have placed an order for lots of mangrove snapper and big ones to be waiting for the customer’s hooks. Well so far the mangroves have kept up their end of the bargain. We limited out on mangroves on Friday and Saturday this week with the largest one going very close to 14 pounds. Again no STAR ticket owned by the fisherman. On Saturday 7/23/2011 I had the Cortec gang and we ran into a spot that the mangroves were big and mean and didn’t want to come very far out of the rig. I know we must have broken off 25 or more at that spot before Wayne finally got the big one out. I even tried and couldn’t get one out. You would think that 80 pound Berkley braid and 100 pound Berkley Big Game mono could do the job but these fish at that spot were just mean. Two days in a row I left them biting at that spot, anyone wants to try and win the STAR the fish are there and waiting for you. Capt Tim and I have lots of days open in August and besides mangroves the amberjack season will be open and they are hungry and waiting for you also. It’s time to get your HIGH LIFE JIGS and start jigging the jacks. We made a little test run on the jacks and the largest one we found was around 100 pounds. Couldn’t keep him to get an official weight but my deck hand Bryson is in the picture and he is 120 and the fish is his size so you make your guess. This fish was caught by Tom Buck on a Penn 12VS with 60 pound Berkley Big Game mono next to a rig. Tom kept thinking he was stuck on the rig but I kept assuring him that he just had a big fish. The others we caught were all around 50 pounds and all swam away with ease and I hope they stick around till August. Give us a call at Custom Charters 985-851-
