Nervous Water is on it’s way up from Florida and arrives tomorrow. I am hoping to launch her tomorrow morning and see if I can find any stripers this weekend! The weather should be perfect.

Meet the new first mate on Nervous Water!! Grouper! She will have her first trip on the water this weekend.

I am looking forward to a terrific fishing season. Call if you want to book a charter or have any questions.

I returned this past week from two weeks in Boca Grande, Florida. The cool winter in Florida this year definitely affected the fishing. The water temperatures while we were there were about ten degrees cooler than average, and that made the fishing tough. On top of that, the wind was up almost every day we were there and temps were in the low to mid 60s. Can’t believe it was warmer in Boston most of the time I was down there…

That being said, I was able to get some good fish while down there. When the water cleared a little and the the wind was down, the trout fishing was excellent. I took my brother and three year old nephew out a few times and we got into some good trout and Spanish mackerel.

Seeing that there was very little bait in the water and the fish were not up on their usual flats, my dad and I spend a few days exploring some new spots, trying to find areas where the water was clearer, warmer and was holding fish. We used the kayaks to get back into some deep back country and found some nice redfish. I hooked this one early in the day in about six inches of water. We hooked a few others and had some amazing top water strikes, but the fishing was slower than usual.

Although the snook season is closed for the year, you can still catch them. They were very hard to find and was only able to hook this one on a flat in the inner harbor. The snook really have been devastated by these cold temperatures. 

The striper season is right around the corner. The boat arrives on May 1st and the first stripers of the season will not be far behind. I am looking forward to this fishing season and have some new flies to try out when the first fish arrive.

Please contact me with any questions or to book a charter.

Tight Lines,

Capt. Webb
