Monday, September 12, 2011 at 10:19PM Trish Biondoletti, fishing with her husband Capt. Vinnie Biondoletti, caught 14 reds and 10 trout to capture Women's Grand Champion award in the Coral Shores Baseball Back Country Slam Tournament. The largest red was a nice 27 inch fish. Great job guys!
Thursday, September 8, 2011 at 04:25PM Andy and Even from Germany went back out for another half day with Capt. Vinnie Biondoletti. They went 3 for 7 on Tarpon and also caught 10 nice Jack crevalle on surface plugs. Great to see some tarpon this late in the year close by!
Thursday, September 8, 2011 at 07:45AM Capt. Vinnie Biondoletti had a couple half days the last few days fishing the florida keys backcountry. Muds close by had plenty of trout, ladyfish, and snappers to bend the rod. Andy and Evan from Germany also caught blacktip sharks, a bonnet shark, and this nurse shark. Keith and Chris Rowland from Texas caught their limit of snapper and trout to eat. Capt. Rick Stanczyk reported similar fishing with plenty of action from blacktip sharks as well.
Friday, September 2, 2011 at 06:13PM Capt. Vinnie Biondoletti took fellow captains & friends Rick Stanczyk and Jake Turek out for some islamorada flats fishing today on 9/2/11. We ran back to flamingo in his small Beavertail skiff and fished the shorelines and around some islands poling up where it is normally very shallow. We ended up catching 17 redfish and pulling off several more. Conditions were a little tough with overcast skies and very high water, though the falling tide did have lots of fish pushing around on the flats when you could see them! Caught a handful tailing as well on D.O.A shrimps, plus bucktails with swimming worms.
