Busy week

For those of you that don't know I have taken on a new part time job as a Quail hunting guide at a Plantation in Okeechobee FL. I enjoy it, and it gives me the oportunity to earn some extra money as well as using my Labs to flush the Quail after the Pointers go on point. Dog's and wingshooting have become just as much a passion as fishing has been all my life, so to be able to do both is great, but lots of work when you combine a couple hunts plus a few fishing trips together in one week and being at the Southern Angler the rest of the time.

On to the fishing report for the week. The Pompano bite this week has been as good as I have ever seen it. My charter yesterday with Nick Mcdonald and his two friends proved to be a good Pomp day with 15 or 16 to the boat and many more lost, with a mix of Ladyfish to keep the rods bent.

The day before that I was on the water with John Crockett who was an excellent fly caster. John wanted to give the big Jacks on the beach a try but it was to early in the season and we never saw the first one. We did find a nice big school of Cobia to get us excited, along with plenty of Spanish mackeral to keep the action moving.

I will be on the water again tomorrow fishing a group charter with Mike Holliday. Hoping for good weather and lots of action.
