From the helm of Pesca Mas 3-24-17
Fishing just started off with a bang. Landed a few good size state snapper and the the line on the shotgun rod started peeling off. After 20 minutes or so we had a 17lb Jack Crevalle beside the boat. A few minutes after releasing the jackfish we had our first of three nice mangrove snapper that we would catch during the day. Then it all broke loose. We had two snapper on and then Bri’s(12 years old) rod doubled over, the fish came right up to the surface but didn’t give us long enough to determine whether it was a shark or a cobia. The fish made two runs and then was beside the boat for a quick gaff by the Outkasts and over came a 42.5lb. cobia(ling). What a beauty of a fish. The next couple hours we continued to peck away at the red snapper limit but we also took a few bull redfish aboard. About 1 o’clock we were done with the 6 person limit of state water snapper(24 total) and we headed toward the mouth of the river to finish our bull redfish limit. After chumming and fishing for an hour and a half it was not meant to be. I have to say that it was one of the most exciting days for the Outkasts on the water this year so far. The really good news is that when the cobia and spanish mackerel are around then the kingfish aren’t far away.

Wow!! The fishing is spectacular right now. Easy limits of red snapper, usually within 45 minutes, to 25”. Bull reds are hot in the shallow water to 44’ and 29lbs. we are picking up quite a few spanish mackerel and grouper too. All of our trips over the weekend we just on fire. Our other boat, Pesca Mas had a red snapper to 33” and 25lbs(see video on our Facebook page). We are waiting very impatiently for the kingfish and cobia to show. We are still booking quickly for the summer so please plan now. If Revelry is booked then look at the dates for Pesca Mas too. She is our little sportfisher and she is a dandy. Full restroom and bunks for little extra charge.

If you are lucky enough you will get to see Aaron playing at the dock when we return or leave. Maybe with a little inspiration you can get him to play on the boat.

We have t-shirts and high performance fishing shirts available for purchase at the boat if you would like one. They run $20 and $35.

We also will cater and make your PRIVATE trip all-inclusive at a vary fair price. It includes high performance shirts for your crew, breakfast or dinner and drinks(does not include alcohol but you may bring your own). Let us know when we touch base with you after your booking and we will cover all the details and pricing.

If we are booked solid we ask that you look to Olivia J Charters down here as well. Capt. Rodney Chapman is quite a fisherman and very professional!
