6/30/11 Great florida keys reef fishing, big groupers!

DateFriday, July 1, 2011 at 11:31AM

The Kalex had a great day out on the reef today on 6/30/11!  They caught their limit of nice yellowtail snappers, and a few nice muttons to go along with that as well!  They also caught a couple of big black groupers!  One of these was almost 50 lbs and the other was a whopping 60 lbs!  Don't see too many lunkers like this anymore!  Great job guys, come on down for some great florida keys fishing charters on the reef now!  Mangrove snappers should be moving their way out there in the summer and that will be red hot!

2/18 + 2/19 - Quality, not quantity, in the offshore and backcountry!

DateSaturday, February 19, 2011 at 02:37PM

The Proctor family fished with Capt. Nick & Capt. Rick Stanczyk this weekend, 2/18/11 and 2/19/11, for some offshore and backcountry action.  They fished aboard the "BnM" on Friday for a full day.  Fishing was kind of tough, sailfish did not cooperate, nor the king macs, or even the yellowtails on the reef!  However, they did catch a nice 40 lb cobia out of the kite while sailfishing!  They also dropped on a hole and caught a huge 18 lb mutton, as well as a 20 lb black grouper, too bad they weren't in season!  They also caught a few tunas, a schoolie dolphin, some kingfish and a big ol' porgy!  Saturday they went for a half day with Capt. Rick Stanczyk in the backcountry.  They fished the edge of the gulf, again fishing was a little tough back there, though they did catch about 15 spanish macs, ladyfish, a couple bluefish, 2 nice blacktip/spinner sharks, and a lil' 10 lb. cobia on the light jig rod - very fun on light tackle!  Sometimes it's quality, not quantity, that counts!  As the weather continues to warm up, the backcountry fishing should really be taking off again, looking forward to great days in the gulf, as well as tarpon fishing in the back!!!
