Capt. Jeremy ran 2 back to back trips today for Bull River Marina.
They tried for Bull Reds, but didn't get one today. Water speed is exceptionally
fast with the Moon almost at the new phase. Temps are still going up,
so expect a trout bite very soon. They caught and released several sharks
and 1 nice leapord ray and a smooth dogfish, as well as a huge stingray
estimated at over 50 lbs.

Capt. Jeremy had a 6 hour 3 person trip today with Ronnie and
his family from Murfreesboro, Tn. They did not get a bull red today, but
did catch and release quite a few bonnethead sharks. Water temp is in
the low 70's , but clarity is stained at best. After his 6 hour trip,
he ran a 4 person 4 hour trip for bull river marina. They hooked and lost
a tarpon and got spooled a few minutes later. Not a bad day on the water.
The fish below is from the Bull River Trip today. Capt. Jeremy is holding
the shark for the young man.

store has not been able to get any live shrimp, so we went after and got

Capt. Jeremy had a 4 hour trip today for Bull River Marina. He
had 4 people for 4 hours. Air temp plunged the last 2 nights and caused
the water temp to drop AGAIN to 54°. The target species was whiting
and everyone caught fish. The pictures below is a sample of some of the
different species encountered while catching whiting. These are all bottom
fish, whiting, hake, and stingrays. Considering the weather not a bad
outing!

Capt. Rick had a 4 hour trip today with Bill. We were actually
targeting whiting, but Managed to hook , land, revive and release a very
nice Bull Redfish. Water temp was 59.9°. The whiting bite is also
picking up. Looks like after the first of this week, we should be in a
solid spring fishing pattern. All in all a very nice morning on the water.
03/01/2014
Capt. Jeremy had a 6 hour 4 person trip on March first. Water
temp was 55. Unfortunatly the fish did not cooperate and no one caught
today. We have had a frigid winter and the cold is still holding on.
Expect
improvements in the next few days . Bait store opened up on march 2 and
caught some white shrimp. Earl Reported that there were some fingerling
trout in the nets, so that is a very good sign of things to come.
