Tuesday, 8/2/11 … black nose shark

Small black nose caught in June

We fished the Sanibel & Captiva area today and caught lots of sea trout & ladyfish.

We caught a 2 foot black nose shark in Captiva Pass while shark fishing.

We also lost a goliath grouper off of Captiva.

Al in all, a good day!

Fair winds and following seas,

Fishing off captiva this week should be good, whether recreational fishing or charter fishing.

There are snook everywhere and some sharks in the bay around Captiva…

Saturday, 7/30/11 … lot’s of snook and a huge goliath grouper

Snook fight!

Saturday was a great day of fishing!

The snook are in full spawn here on Captiva.  Many young males and a few large females are being caught each charter.

In the morning, first cast, we caught a nice snook about 11 lbs.

After each person caught a few snook, we headed to the bayside of Sanibel where we caught trout, mackeral, ladyfish and cobia.

In the afternoon, we caught twenty snook right off the bat.

Then we went offshore & caught three goliath groupers, one being a massive 300 lbs. What a fight.

We went to Redfish Pass where we caught a 15 inch snapper, so hopefully their also moving in.

Fair winds and following seas,

Friday, 7/29/11 … snook

Snook

We caught several nice snook today off Captiva in the early AM.

Then we struggled to find some clean water to find the right bait for shark fishing.

We ended up catching a bull shark at 11:30 am  about 60 lbs

This afternoon we caught and released lots of snook.. 25 or so.. also lots of ladyfish & trout.

Here is the video of the lemon shark from the other day:
