As Captain Morgan’s charter pushes off just after sunrise, the clients faces turn from grogginess to sheer excitement. They know what is in store… a boat load of fish were waiting to be caught! Captain Morgan took his guests out to some coveted fishing spots that he keeps secret. After about an hour ride out they reached their first destination. Fish after fish was hauled in and thrown straight to the box, no need to measure these trucks… They were clearly over the size requirement to keep! These clients were extremely happy as they reeled in their feast for the evening. After returning to Maximo Marina, Captain Morgan filleted the fish for his clients and sent them home with hefty care packages. Another day, another fish report!

Captain Brian Morgan set out for a recreational day of fishing. Being his only day after a long stretch of back to back charters, you would think this guy would post up in front of a television somewhere and lay around. Nope! That’s not going to happen on his watch! The day began rigging up a Sabiki line and catching some very eager bait. After that Captain Brian set out to troll the ship channel. A fun day was had catching Spanish Mackeral, Bonita, and the sought after Kingfish. There was a shark spotting as a Bonita was on its way in to the boat. An extremely large shark came and hit it at the surface and tore the Bonita in half. After this happened a few times, Captain Morgan set out for some “revenge fishing”. Rigging up a 500lb cable with a 9/0 hook, he wasn’t going to let this predator keep stealing his fish. He also put a stinger on his butterflied Bonita and the hunt ensued. While he didn’t get the shark, the Captain helped his guest reel in a big Baracuda, which no doubt was assisting the shark in steal what was rightfully, HIS FISH. All in all, great day and lots of fun.

This awesome day began in the Gulf began with some Kingfishing. We hooked up on a few beauties then decided to relocate our vessel to hunt down some Grouper! We hit our per person limit on ONE stop within an hour and a half! I would say this has been one of the most fruitful charters, presenting even LARGER fish than we normally catch, Which means they were huge! After limiting out so quickly the charter returned to attack the Kingfish once more, just to show the gulf of Mexico who’s boss! After returning to Maximo Marina Captain Morgan filleted these beasts (Even snuck one filet for himself…lol) and sent everyone home tired, but smiling!!

 

Hammer time!! Check out this nice little half day fishing report! This couple had a great time hooking up on some big gray snapper and reds, as well as a cool juvenile Bonnethead. To book your adventure call 813-516-9365.

This Beast was hauled in by Captain Brian Morgan on a 30lb test spinning rod. After a 45 minute fight, this Gag Grouper was heartbreakingly released back to the Gulf because season was closed. This impressive fish would have been a trophy of a catch for any fisherman. Clients aboard today’s charter marveled at the sheer size of this monster. Book your charter today and see if you can’t catch this guys Grandpa! 813-892-4224
