Capt Wes’ Fishing Archives: Jan 06 - July 07

Kelley called me and said I have to entertain 4 boys are you up to it! Of course I said yes. We met at the dock early in the morning with Wilson and Wil ready to go and Wade and Jake wanting to sleep in.

We started trolling in the pass with a couple of speck rigs. Here are two good friends Wilson and Wil looking for their first catch of the day.

After a few passes along the bar our fishing crew hooked up with two nice spanish!

Wilson went solo for a nice spanish.

Wil sharing a moment with his little brother Jake while holding up a stud bluerunner!

Wilson was very quite as usual but never let the rod down for a second.

Wil was the gongho angler. He wanted to catch every fish in the water.

Jake was the green yogurt eater. At the end of the fishing adventure Jake was looking like a green martian!

Now Wade was the deckhand on the boat. When he was not catching a fish he was making sure everything on the boat was tied to the bow rope!

Kelley, the wonderful mom never caught a fish but I think had a great time watching the boys be boys.

Until our next fishing adventures….tight lines!

Dan, Weldon and Charlie ask me if I would take them on an afternoon fishing trip. I told them lets go but make sure you bring plenty of water to drink cause it is going to be HOT!

We get to our first fishing hole and before we can get our baits in the water a big ole manatee comes swimming by.

While we were watching the Manatee, Dan hooked up on his first speck. Small but a speck the same.

What does Weldon have on?

His first speck of the day.

We could not leave the water until Charlie caught a speck too!

The weather started becoming a problem and the heat was extreme so we decided to end the day after Charlie was photoed with his prize catch.

Until our next fishing adventure….tight lines!

We knew our fishing adventure was going to be a trip to remember when this spectacular sunrise popped over the trees.

Jamie and Tim fishing together again having a father and son bonding day.

Robert began the day with a huge explosion on his topwater plug.

As Robert faught the fish to the boat we could see it was a huge redfish!

Robert was very pleased with his first redfish as well as the first fish he had caught in 15 years. What a dry spell!

Jamie fighting one of several specks he caught this day.

This speck tried everything he could to release himself from certain doom!

Jamie with this nice speck caught on the red/white 7M mirrolure.

Tim takes the mirrolure from his dad and catches not one…

…but two nice specks!

The brothers hook up with a double on some really nice bluefish!

Tim is so excited he begins to do the “fishy dance”!

Tim is rewarded with a nice bluefish after he finishes his “fishy dance”

The day was wonderful and plenty of fish were caught!

Until our next fishing adventures….tight lines!

As Corey waites for the sun to rise he is thinking about the biggest fish he ever caught. Would this be the day he catches his biggest fish ever.

Well, it would not take long and his question would be answered. Corey was almost snatched over board by this spirited catfish!

I do not know if this is his BIGGEST catch ever but it will have to rank in the top two!

Until our next fishing adventure…tight lines!
