Aug 8,2009 Offshore up to 50 again still about the same thing and i fished Freeport area I checked out all my best spots the only thing I can think of is the fish have made a deep run now. Checked with Dan after he made a 75 mile run he brought in 20 lb snapper with only 1 king nothing else. So with this being One of the hottest summers on record I believe the fish have took a sabaticle and ran deep.Lindsey Thanks so much Lynn was beaming when I got in last night about her flowers. Just so everyone knows what is going on Lynn helped her family get a last minute trip with a excellent captain she has gave them a great short run trip for snapper and kings just in time to make it to their ballgame back in Houston so Lindsey Baker thank you very much you made my wife's year that much better, I always thank her for all she does but, your gesture was just perfect. Thank you very much Capt.Bill

August 5,2009 Jetty Trip for 6 people busy 1/2 day finally seems the bay trips are better than offshore right now unless you make about a 75 mile run. On the jetty trips i am bringing in slot reds,bullreds,shark from 5 1/2' to 6 ' seems the normal, also bringing in spotty red snapper inshore,trout specs and sand, scattered spanish mackeral .Aug 7,2009 Offshore up to 50 miles bringing in spotty catch's at best think the water temp has really started to chase the fish bringing in red snapper, a few spanish mackeral,spotty kings no ling or mahi.

Our Deckhands for Workingman Charters

Introducing our Deckhands
Our deckhands work very hard to make sure you bring all those big fish on deck this enable the Captain to steer and keep you on spot so we don't have to anchor out.
We use very clean mouthed clean cut responsible young men.

Randy Norgan has been with us since he was 17 years old married with 1 little boy

Then we have a new stand in deckhand Alex 16 years old and is training with Captain Bill turning out to be a very good attentive young man very responsible and always on top of everything

August 2,2009 Been having alot of trips this week for the jetties and Deep out to 70 miles out. On the jetty trips we have been bringing in some decent specks,and sand trout,and slot reds, Bullreds are picking up and biting pretty good also. Out deep I have been bring in some big kingfish,limits of nice snapper up to 18lbs and some nice 6' blacktip shark. The water has started to heat up more than normal on the 50 mile trips all the mahi are at the tidal rips out about 62 miles and when have sure been bringing in nice limits of them last trip we boated about 80 chicken dolphin. Ling are out deep I am guessing the water temp has so much to do this and come sept this fishing should be better closer in at 50 miles. We have been hitting the shrimpers and banging the fish when we can get through the sharks. Blackfin are holding out about 80 miles so are the big wahoo up to 100 lbs.
Take care see ya next trip!

August 3,2009

Had a family of 7 for Monday which we had to split up into 2 trips the ladies did a jetty and the guys went for red snapper. First time I have ever done a trip where we hit dock split up and went back out to let the rest fish. Bascially a statewater trip is what we ran having 18" snapper keepers at the reef and bonnet head sharks and Bullreds at the jetties. Travis's mom did managed a 6' blacktip got to the boat and when Randy hit the gaff that was all she wrote that shark was green and came alive breaking the line. On this trip we used 40 lb. test not my usuall 80 lb. Lynn is posting photo's. No doubt these people were fisherpeople and could feel the bite thanks everyone Randy and I really enjoyed having you guys onboard.
