Shrimp Boat Season

Gotta LOVE shrimp boat season!!!

The shrimp boats are here and the BIG Yellows are starting to show up. So far the largest one was brought to the dock by Capt Eric Newman this past Monday and weighed in at 219lb wich is probably 100lbs more than the angler, Monique!! Congrats to Eric and Monique. Several other big fish have hit the dock this last week. Capt Scott came in with a 190 something followed by Capt Mike Gray with a 160 something and Captain Eddie had a 170 something Tuesday.


Lots of Balcks in the mixs well. Tuesday we had 23 Blackfin and had a STUD of a Yellow on ourselves but lost him due to a frayed leader. The action had been so fast I forgot to remind our anglers to check there leaders before sending them back out for another fish. You can BET that will be the last time I forget that!!


With the next cold front coming I can't help but think more and more BIG Yellows will be showing up so if you want a shot at a REALLY BIG Yellow give us a call. Now is the time!!!
