Fishing Reports

The change from the beginning of the week to the end was extremely noticeable; we struggled for bites early in the week then a light came on and the last few days were really much better. I think the water temperature has equalized where the bottom which was much warmer has ...

Today was a good sign of things to come with Bass fishing on the "Big-G". The somewhat cooler temps have finally got the fish going into a little more of an aggressive mode and they have finally started to show some action. We started at 8am and went to swimming Choo ...

Now that the threat of Hurricane Matthew has passed and Nicole seems well east of the coast, the fishing scene in Beach Haven is returning to normal. After over two weeks of almost constant northeast winds and large swells, the boats of the Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association ...

Lake Barkley: Water Level at Barkley Dam - 354.15 Surface Temperature - 71

Both lakes are just slightly over winter pool. Kentucky Dam was generating ...

Today I had a trip on Weiss Lake with a gentleman that wanted to learn a few patterns to use when the Fall temps "actually" start to come in. The fish on Weiss were very aggressive but still have not made that move up into the shallows just yet, but with the temps ...

The fall fishing patterns are starting to begin.

The warmer than normal early fall has stripers remaining deep longer than normal. Early this week we caught fish 90 to 95 ft deep but now we are catching fish 30 to 50 feet deep. And saying that great jumps should ...

Water Temp 70
Lake level 354.40

The fishing here on Kentucky lake has been pretty good! With the cooler air temperatures the water has fallen to around 70 degrees. This has moved the bait and bass towards shallower water. I am seeing most of the bait and bass ...

The Bass fishing the past few weeks has been in a somewhat "inconsistent" pattern. The bite has been a lot better with a Choo Choo Lures Swimjig than most other patterns. The Snag Proof Frog bite has been showing a lot of promise with the grass finally forming a consistent ...

Hurricane Matthew has come and gone and most South Floridians have cleaned up what little mess that Matthew caused. Now we are ready to start fishing again. Matthew has pushed a ton of mullet schools down thew coast and lots of hungry predators are following them. This morning ...

There is no doubt we need some kind of drastic change in the weather, some rain and some temperature change to get the bass into the fall feeding mode. We have seen some movement but every time we take a step forward the weather turns hot and slows it back down to tough fishing. ...

Absolute Florida Flats Fishing, a fishing guide service serving the West Central FL. Gulf Coast area of Tarpon springs, Clearwater and New Port Richey reports the inshore/ nearshore fall fishing season is finally here. With our 1st baby cool front that stalled just to the north ...

Between a rock and a hard place...
Well the past two weeks have been trying to say the least, between the red tide and Hurricane Matthew we have seen our fair share of natural "adversities" over the past two weeks. We will start off with the red tide issue, the ...

Lake Fork is still looking really good. Water temps are in 80s. The water is fairly clear. Vegetation is abundant. And the water level is about 2 feet low.
As I mentioned in my last report, many of the trees were just below the surface. At 2 feet low, most are now exposed. ...

At the time of this report the captains of the Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association are heaving a sigh of relief as it appears Hurricane Matthew will spare the New Jersey coastline. At the same time, they are keeping their fingers crossed for the safety of the fishing communities ...

Pickwick Lake Elevation 413.5
Water Temp. 85

Bass
If you get out early have a Strike King Sexy Dawg walking bait and a KVD popping bait tied on. This will most likely be the easiest time and method to catch bass right now. I have been catching bass throughout ...
