Latest Report and Walk-On Trip this Friday, 21 June 2013! Great weather Forecast!!!

Posted on June 17, 2013 by Walleye Pete

One of several citation Speckled Sea Trout this week!

Well folks……this has been a tough june!  Fishing has been very good when mother nature lets me fish all my great areas.  When the wind is persistant out of the south/southwest or any direction the islands get stained water all around them making Speck catching very difficult.  Over the last several days I’ve had to fish in a couple of areas with grass and away from points.  Only decent water I could find was in shallow water with grass.  We haven’t gotten great numbers of Specks but some really big ones!  Lures of choice have been Bass Kandy Delights and assorted gulp baits.  I’m patiently waiting for calm seas and clear water around the islands.

A great speck caught in shallow grass on a windy day…..not easy…..had to work for it!!!! Great fish!!!!

Technique in the grass is tricky.  Have to go really light weight on the jig…..1/8 or 1/4 ounce and work it over the grass and try not to snag floating grass……tough gig but some big trout in there!  Gulp Swim Mullets and chartruese Glitter BKD’s ( www.basskandydelights.com )

Big Puppy Drum caught in the shallows! They are starting to show up good!

This whopper was caught today in the grass and wind! What a speck!

 

Looks like some decent weather in the future to target specks….I’ll be out everyday possible trying to make it happen in the islands!

 

WALK-ON TRIP THIS FRIDAY!  21 May 2013-    WALK-ON TRIP FOR FRIDAY IS BOOKED SOLID…..thanks folks!!!!!!

Weather outlook is perfect and big Specks are out there!

We’ll be launching from Buzzs Marina and fishing anywhere from Bloodsworth Island down to Smith Island.

Specks will be the target but Red Drum have started to show….have been catching a few and most are keepers!

Cost is $120 each, first 5 callers are in……

We will depart the dock at 6am and return around 3 pm or so…..

I have all the gear but you can bring your own if you wish

Wearing long pants is a smart thing due to biting bugs……..

If you want to go on this trip give me a call at 703-395-9955.  If you email or text I might not get it in time……if you call  and I don’t answer leave a message with the time called.  Thanks!

A trophy Speck caught recently!  What a fish!

6 Days In A Row Speck’in in The Wind…….

Posted on May 31, 2013 by Walleye Pete

I even got lucky this week! 

Mother nature has not made things easy…..every day this week I’ve been seeing winds in the 15 to 20 knot range at some point during the day.  Fishing in the islands for Specks is “clear water” dependent.  Without clear water catching Speckled Sea Trout can be very difficult if not impossible.

Even with the wind I’ve been able to find some clear water and Specks ready to hit a lure.  No easy task though…..definetly covering lots of ground from Bloodsworth down to Smith Island and places in between.  Even though I’m running from Buzz’s Marina in Ridge miles are still adding up daily.  Running an average of 62 miles a day…..last year I was racking up 79 miles a day average.

Way to beat up on Joe and Mike! Allan, you are the “Speck” u later!

Allan got in on some great action by besting his buddies Joe and Mike on a recent Walk-on Trip……good job brother!!!!!

Allan was slinging some gulp baits for Specks this week and did right well landing several.  The rod he is using is a beautiful custom rod from Shore Tackle on Kent Island…. www.thetacklecove.com

 

First Red Drum of the season caught by my man “Ski”…….hoping more of those Reds make a showing!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice one L.T.!!!!

Pretty Shirt and Speck!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’ll be fishing tomorrow with a crew gambling on mother nature to give us a “hair bit” of a break with the wind.  I’m getting really tired out there battling difficult conditions…..ready of a break from mother nature!

I’m currently booked solid for June exept for a couple of days in the last week.  If the fishing and weather cooperates I’ll offer some 1/2 day Walk-On’s from 330 till dark.  If I get any short notice cancels I’ll immediately throw up a walk-on trip notification here and in my newsletter.  Take care all and good luck fish’in!
