Ft. Myers Beach to Charlotte Harbor – November 17, 2015
Prior to the cold front of last week, the fishing continued to be good for all inshore species. Offshore reports also were positive for Triple Tail, Grouper and other reef species.
Inshore catches for Redfish were exceptional until the last few days and before the north and northeast winds blew out the water from the shallows around oyster beds and the mangroves. Pictured here is a group of 5 holding their bounty of Redfish during an early morning charter. They are Mr. Ben Davis, of Cape Coral, Steve Smith and Chris Hall of Ft. Myers and Glenn and Colleen Gabrys of Crown Pointe, Indiana.
The flats produced lots of action and fun for the Paul Kelly family from Glenview, Illinois. His children Patrick (9), Peyton (8) and Brooke (5) are pictured here with their Seatrouts. Partrick and Peyton caught lots of fish that day and had lots of fun. They caught a variety of species and the family was pleasure to spend time with. I am looking forward to doing it again next year.

I expect fishing to be good over the weekend and into early next week with a full moon phase and so long as an aggressive cold front does not approach.
In closing, be sure and attend the Ft. Myers Boat Show. I am looking forward to giving seminars on the species that I catch on a regular basis. My seminars are designed to assist those who want to learn the basics of catching inshore species, such as Seatrout, Redfish, Snook, Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, Pompano and Mangrove Snapper to name a few. My 1st Mate Vicki and I have a booth inside the convention hall. Stop by and say hi!
