Ringing in the new year in the backcountry!  1/1/11

Galen Edie & his family(Galen,Nick, Chris & Sean) Bud & Mary's Florida Keys Fishing regulars for 20 years,rung in the new year fishing with Capt Jim Willcox & Ken Cohan on Dec 31st & Jan 1st. Day one was filled with plenty of trout & a full limit of snappers for all 5 anglers. Day two the boats split up & fished two different areas. Both boats caught double digit redfish,black drum,sheepshead,& large trout. Shrimp was the main bait of choice back here with the water still being somewhat cool!  The weather was beautiful & there were no other boats around. The pics are of Sean with a nice black drum, Dad with a big trout, a close encounter with a crocodile, & a sneak preview of a new dam under construction.  Great way to spend a day fishing in Islamorada!

12/21/10 - Nice reds and trout in the everglades

On tuesday super low tides piled the reds up in the Cape Sable area for some serious everglades fishing.  Father & son Doug & Ryan Singleton from Michigan caught over 30 reds in the 16 inch range, two 27 inchers , & too many trout to count. All of the fish were released!  All in all a great day and a dream Florida Fishing Vacation for father and son!  Capt. Jim Willcox

Trout biting again!  12/18/10

Well the waters in the Florida Keys Fishing bay have slowly warmed up over the weekend.  Capt. Jim Willcox fished a half day yesterday morning before the rain got to us and caught over 100 trout!  John & Sean, the father son team from California, had a wonderful time!  Good to see the trout bite turning on fishing Islamorada again.
