Fishing Reports by Capt. Larry Pentel

A Little Surf- A Lot Of Fish! - Lots of fish, weather and hype by the weather channel since my last report. Here's the Readers Digest version -- The surf finally came up Sunday evening (late) from Fay and it rained Monday- long after TWC circus had left town. Things lay down and more...

Full box- Kings are better! - As always, I'm writing a fishing report on a weather day. The remanants of T.S. Faye are drizzlin' down outside and the weather channel has made yet another normal summer occurence into a major motion picture. Oh well. I guess they have to talk about more...

Big Tarpon Back In Action - After my last report the fishing went along just great with us putting at least 1 fish in the air every day I had a tarpon trip and averaging over 1 a day to the boat. Then hurricane Dolly kicked up the surf last Tues. and the Tarpon shut down. Not s more...

Mack Attack - For the past week the King Mackerel have been ferocious. There were a couple mornings where you about had to hide the hooks and bait under the rail before you threw it over! Alas, this morning they just didn't want to chew. They are still there as we more...

Lots of Fish- Lots of Species - All the skinny kids with surfboards are out today so I get a day off to fix all that tackle and write a report. The only bad day of fishin' this time of year is the day the surf is too rough to launch the boat----. The cobia run seems to have wo more...
