July 26th -28th Nearshore Fun! Flounder, Grouper, AJ's
7/28 John M. and his son joined me today for a whackem, stackem, trip in the ocean today. We started out trying to put John's son on his first AJ for a lock down brawl! After tackling a few AJ's and a big Barracuda, we moved on to a nearshore ledge to double up on some grouper. Little man had never caught a grouper before today but.... he proved to be a good digger and cranked up a nice keeper. We landed 5 and kept their limit of two about 8lbs each. Then, we finished up the morning back toward the beach on some live bottom where we jigged up some Purrrrty flounder! John landed the largest flounder today at 4.5lbs and his son caught his largest to date at about 3lbs.
Great Job Guys.... Capt. Jeff Cronk/ Fish'n4life
7/27 Johnny H. and wife finally got the weather we were looking for to target the ocean for some good action on the flat fish. We quickly grabbed some peanut pogies incase the Spanish bite was on.... but that bite turned out to be off today... so, we switched things up and started pounding the nearshore live/hard bottoms for flounder. We steadily picked away until the last hour and a half of the trip..... when we got into the flounder. It was steady strikes and landing plenty of fish, both shorties and keepers. We made our way back to the dock around noon nd layed out our catch. We wound up landing about 20 flounder with 10 from 1.5lbs to 4.5lbs and a big seabass. Great morning of fishing! Great work folks!

Gerald Cleveland and sons were onboard today. We searched for a school of reds and eventually found a good pod which offered up some great reel screaming action on Topwater Baits! Excellent job guys!
