Any “reel” fisherman will tell you, there are some days that are just plain tougher than others! Captain Morgan and this group had a slow start to the day out on the Gulf. However, Being the well seasoned Captain he is, Morgan was able to visit a couple different spots that allowed his guests to still have one heck of a trip and catch some great fish before returning to Maximo Marina. Along with Red Grouper, a myriad of Snapper species were caught and a hefty Amber Jack was even brought on board! All in all, another great day out on the Gulf of Mexico!

Captain Morgan headed out of Maximo Channel this day at around 8:15. Once the vessel reached his 45 mile mark offshore, the Captain trolled around until he located one of his coveted spots. Fish were pulled up left and right from the first drop down. This charter had a stand out MVP, a fishing virgin, and a sea sick Goddess. This trip was an exciting one. Even though Captain Morgan was forced to return to the Marina early, He still managed to ensure his guests limited out on their Grouper and had a great time.

Captain Morgan treats clients to a great day out on the Gulf catching some nice fish! Along with the targeted Red Snapper, many other species of fish were brought on board including the limit of Red Grouper. Captain Morgans guests were catching from the very FIRST demonstrative drop! Gags, Mangrove Snapper, Red Grouper, Lane Snapper, and of course Red Snapper were all brought up by the guests on this adventure. Captain Morgan and guests wrestled with multiple sharks that kept attempting to steal their catches for an easy meal. One shark that came aboard even took a piece of Captain Morgans toe with him and left a tooth behind to show he wanted the fish just as bad! Captain Brian ensured a great day for guests and everyone left with beautifully cleaned fillets! Book your charter today! 813-516-9365

With excited clients on board, Captain Morgan set out for an all day fishing venture into the Gulf of Mexico! The day did not disappoint, as some beautiful Red Grouper were pulled on to the boat. These clients had a fun and peaceful day offshore and were excited to take home their catch! After returning to Maximo Marina in St. Petersburg, the group posed and smiled with their bountiful harvest! Captain Morgan made it happen again! These Red Grouper didn’t have a chance! Don’t mind the two fish playing kissy face below!

Captain Morgan shows there is always time to catch some fish. The clients aboard this adventure set off for a half day trek of the Gulf at 8am. They returned to the dock shortly after Noon with a great haul and one very happy, smiling, Birthday Boy!

 

 

The water in the Gulf of Mexico was rough as the boys set out for a full day mini tournament. It was an early start for Captain Brian Morgan and his guests who set out from Merry’s Pier in Pass-a-Grille at 6am. It wasn’t long after dropping anchor on a couple of secret spots, that Captain Morgan began watching his clients pull in monster after monster. Including a huge Mangrove Snapper that the Captain proudly pulled up himself. All in all a great day. There was an appearance from some American Red Snapper as well, along their pursuit to limit out in Red Grouper.

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.
