The Good News, We’re Still Able to Get Our Scallop Limits

Thursday, August 20th, 2009 by Captain Steve of Pepperfish Key Charters Comments Off

I’ve Got Good News And Not So Good News

pepperfish_key_galmour_shotThe good news is we’re are still able to find limits of scallops. The bad news is we are having to look harder and dive deeper. The easy ones have been hit hard.

Our catching fish success has been spotty, which is normal for summer. That is the not so good news. You have to love to fish and enjoy it even when the catching is slow. My last trip gave us a real mixed bag, Trout, Sea bass, Jacks, Blues, Flounder and Ladyfish, before lunch and then we jumped in and picked a couple buckets of scallops.

Another day in paradise!

God Bless, Good fishing and scalloping,

Captain STEVE

Cedar Key Fishin Report Saturday 6-12-09

This Off Shore Cedar Key, Florida Fishing Report is From Cedar Key Grouper Guide Captain John

And Captain John Still Caught Fish

Well, NOAA’s report said 10 kt winds and 2 ft seas, and it was 15 to 18 kt winds and 3-5 ft seas, so the trip was made short.

We fished the king fish hole area due to weather, we only fished till 2 pm, using sardines, cut mullet and live pinfish, we caught about 30 shorts and 5 keeper gag groupers, 1 king fish and a lot of sea bass and grunts, not bad for 20 ft of water @ 80 degs temp.

So if you dont have a boat to go offshore or the weather wont let you go, try the kingfish hole area, trolling plugs, bottom fishing and keep a free line out back w/ a whole sardine, thredfin or live bait, while bottom fishing and wait for your king or cobia to take it.

A Chilled Steinhatchee, Florida Fishing Report

Saturday, February 21st, 2009 by Captain Steve of Pepperfish Key Charters 1 Comment »

This Steinhatchee, Florida Fishing Report is from
Steinhatchee, Florida Fishing Guide Captain Steve Kroll

pepperfish_key_galmour_shotHey Chilled in Florida,

If you have the luxury of picking the best day to fish, there is a lot of fun to be had.

Last week the seas were flat and we ran out to 25′  of water. We caught a bucket full of big black sea bass. The kind with the knots on their forehead. We caught the bucket full in just a couple of hours.

This past Tuesday I took a couple guys from South Carolina fishing. 

While we looked for redfish, we caught and released 100 trout. We did  not find the redfish.

If you decide to catch and release trout, please do it gently. I attempt to remove the jig head with pliers and I try not to touch them at all. I don’t even use a net when I am releasing them.

Stay warm, be careful and God bless.
Captain Steve

Nice, But ya got to put him back! It's a sad day when you catch a hundred trout and have to put them all back.

Steinhatchee Fishing Report, And the Bite Goes On

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008 by Captain Steve of Pepperfish Key Charters Comments Off

Steinhatchee Fishing Report
From Captain Steve

Trout and Reds continue to bite well. Limits are common.

I am continuing to concetrate on shallow fish, mainly because the wind has blown pretty good and makes the deeper flats a little rough.

Those deeper flats do, however, produce some great bonus fish; mackerel, bluefish, sandtrout, seabass, and flounder.

The Trout have been large some days. A couple days the last few weeks we have had our limlt of over 20″s. Red size has been upper slot. They can be caught in the normal places, but we are continuing to catch reds on the flats also.
