Frank,
Back home in Indiana, for now. I am writing off the blog to say thanks because you said it never happened. Thanks again for taking care of my broken —- —— —–. I have shopped alot at your store since we bought the condo in Feb 09. But now you have an exclusive lifetime customer. Thanks for all the great help and advice. I practiced with the cast net, Robert gave me instructions, still working on the sore shoulder, definately not muscles I use everyday. I will be back April 21-27 with 1-3 other guys for a fishing trip and will check in then.

Hungry reds

Monday, March 29th, 2010

Whats up guys anybody out there fishin in rainjackets this morning? I know you are Angel you crazy son of a gun! Greg you get a new phone yet brother? For everybody who doesn’t know already Greg donated another phone to the Charlotte Harbor on Saturday. So if anybody needs to get ahold of him, go to the bait shop lol. Write him a note! Anyways I can’t nock him to bad he took me out fishin Saturday and put me on a nice redfish. Thanks for takin me buddy I had a great time.  I told you I was gonna rub it in though that your fish of the day was a stingray lol.  I also went out yesterday morning with my roomate Jesse to go take some abuse in those twenty mile an hour winds. I knew exactly where I wanted to fish, I knew the bite was on with the real low pressure, and the full moon is comming close. That usually helps the bite. On the negative side there were 4 to 6 footers in the harbor, and It was too low to run inside the bar on the way there, so we opted to be hardcore and just plow through the harbor! I am happy we did so. I ran from my house up the peace river all the way to the Devil Fish Key area in my 18 foot action craft  lol and we went fishin! Oh by the way I was trolling motorless too so we opted to wade. Anyhow the solunar tables were right as they always are, and the bite was defianately on. It wasn’t two minutes into us working the shoreline before we were both hooked up on a sweet tournament size double. We continued catching reds for another couple hours before we decided that was enough fun for one day, and we packed er up and ran home.  I had some nice pictures on my camera of the two of us  but somehow they were erased which is kind of a bummer, but  what a morning  I love that low low pressure and those overcast conditions. Hands down my favorite time to fish. Well guys thats all for me for another couple days. Yall have fun out there. Billy B

south pier

Hey Frank and Mates

Today was a great fishing day (Wednesday, March 24). The Sheephead were biting all over the South Pier in Boca today. Caught the limit with an average size of 14 inches. If you weren’t catching, you already lost your bait and didn’t know it…..

A few Spotted trout were caught, real smalls, except for a young lad that lucked out with a 20 incher. Biggest fish he ever caught. Yippeeee!!!

Want to thank you all for the Wombat deal you had. It worked out great for me….For those that don’t know what I’m taking about…..Read the home page everyday….You may find a deal there!!!

Good Luck Everyone,
Conrad

Worms day at School

Canada

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Hello Frank,

We just got home to Toronto last night.

Wanted to send you “big-up” thanks!

Out of all the excursions we had on the cruise, yours was one of the highlights of our vacation, even if it was in front of your store! Next time we visit FLA…we will have to book a real excursion with you.

I was only able to take the new gear to the beach once in Grand Caymen.

I had quite a few little hits but no landings. Guess I need some more practice!

Many tourists were interested in the idea of fishing right off the beach, they kept coming to me and asking questions.

One guy was totally jealous, he loved the idea of the collapsible rod.

I know we will be catching some bass, walleyes and pikes this summer, when I do, I will send you a picture for your website!

Get your store on facebook…I will certainly join your group.

Thanks again,

Cheryl & Dave!

Still Get’n em!

Sup guys here’s some more pics from Friday and Saturday.  The bite was defianately on Friday we caught some nice reds and another big four  pound trout.  Saturday was a little on the slow side with all the boat traffic and tournys but we still caught a few nice fish.  I am really lovin the Mission Fishin Co.  jigheads in the gold flake with the red eyes.  I’m putting a pic up of em so any of you jighead using fanatics like me can pick some up and try em out.  I’m just workin select size shrimp on em tailhooked and fishin em real slow off the bottom.   The reds have been chewin em up big time.  Well thats all for me guys  good luck out there, n don’t forget to talk to the fish Gods it works.  Billy B
