What a weekend. Had an absolute blast, camping with my mini-me, chasing him around the trail, but I found time to sneak away on a different trail, and find a few fish. Matt once said in my boat “ my favorite fish to catch, is the one on the end of my line”. And that’s how this little getaway was, no giants, nothing prestigious, but time away, in an absolutely beautiful location. What a fun weekend, watching my boy race, and a nice change of scenery.

Steve Moulton had his 4th trip with me. We started back in some tidal creeks, but only found a ladyfish, moved to a better location, and instantly found redfish, but they had a bad attitude. We talked about how the follows, the tough casts, poor conditions, etc. make eats soooo much more special. Well boy did it, after several followers turning back to the school, this guy finally ate. He ate right at the boat too, it was awesome, and instantly made the tough day worth it. Both sporting our hats, and caught the fish on a marsh rover. Also, I’ve heard that the spot on a redfish tail was to decrease the predation on their vital organs, as the spot looks like its eye, this guy had some damage right on his spot. Super interesting.

Steve Moulton is a Threepeat client. He’s learning the saltwater fly game and improving each time. Today started out tough, with a black drum coming unbuttoned, then getting snubbed by several redfish. We finally found this chunky bruiser that was hungry, just shy of 36” and a hair over 16lbs.

Ended up pushing a trip a few days for the wind predictions today. So I took time to slap this new beauty on with the help of . Hit him up with any marine needs. He’s always done his absolute best to get me in and out quickly. We did a full repower today in 5-6 hours. I’m looking forward to the extra horsepower, and reliability.

Cold weather isn’t stopping them. Big schools in skinny water.

Albie and Kristy Whitaker had a great day. It’s always fun to give folks the experience of sight fishing.
