After a late start we limited out on red snapper and caught several nice mangrove snapper, including this 13.39lb monster. Not to bad for my first ever snapper trip. Good times with good friends. Thanks Trey, Jayme, Charles, and Savanha

We have been doing really well with the red snapper, mangrove snapper, cobia and grouper. We have also been catching some nice tuna along with wahoo and mahi mahi when the conditions are right. We have June 18 and June 26 open if you're interested in booking a trip. Give us a call and we will get you out on the water! We have lodging available as well..... Read More

Well the weather looked like it was going to cooperate Wednesday, so I decided to take a day off work to search for the endangered red snapper. They are so scarce it took almost 20 whole minutes to catch our 8 fish. Could have made it back to work for lunch, but decided to try for some mangroves instead. The little boogers out smarted us today, but still managed to add a few to the box. .... Read More

  • Cody settles in for the long battle.
  • Nice board shot
  • Tails up!
Had Todd Dempsey and gang on the Deja Vu this past Saturday for Josh and we couldn't have asked for better weather. Left out early and made a direct line for the snapper hole. Took a minute to get things going but we made pretty quick work out of a nice limit of red snapper before the boat show arrived. With that out of the way, we headed south to see what the gulf had to offer. Stopped at.... Read More

I fished the 3rd and 4th with the same crew. Fished hard in the morning for bait then landed a nice haul of snapper then took off for the tuna. Hit a few rigs on the way to where I knew they would be just in case I miss something the day before. No encouraging signs so we continued to move on. I figured it to be a late bite anyway. Sure enough, first bait out we hooked up. Good yellowfin, 60 to.... Read More

  • Peyton Savoy with a fine red snapper.
Nobody reports out of the Pecan Island area. Went out this past Saturday out of FWC and was met with calm seas. Headed S-SW. Water blue at 50 miles. Stopped at rigs in vermillion block in 140 ft of water. In short order, picked up two ling, largest 45#, and a 3 man limit of beautiful red snapper (10-17#). The snapper would hit anything. We caught all the fish no deeper than 25 ft under the boat..... Read More

On Monday the 27th of may, we had the starting guard from TCU who happens to be the first team on our beloved Tigers schedule. This wasnt a problem for us today. If it were an Alabama player, well lets just say the report might be a little different. This biggest problem for us today was the 5 to 7 foot seas out of the south. After watching the eyes of our crew as we attempted to travel to the.... Read More

Friday took off with a group of local guys to chase the yellowfin tuna. Blasted off from marina with the fountain early since the moon was making fish stop biting early. We left all hopes of catching live bait at home. We decided it wouldn't be wise since the fish would quit eating early. Instead we made our way to the hotspot to see three boats already there. We decided to pass them up for.... Read More

  • Hal with his 25 pound beauty.
Yesterday was Bill Ward from east Texas with his grandsons. I went to a new spot for the snappers looking around a bit and found some really nice ones. Largest for the day was right on 25 pounds with most others in the 17 pound range. The one that I thought was small was 12 pounds. We looked for cobia but the jack cravelle and bonita were so thick we had a hard time getting the cobia on the line.... Read More
