Sanibel Fall fishing

As we move into October, like clockwork our first front of the fall season has moved in as well temps dipped into the low 70s, brrrrrr!  Break out the fleece!


Fishing ahead of the front things couldn't have been more exciting. This past Saturday I had the pleasure to fish an all female team in the B103 Racks and Reels fishing tournament benefitting the American Cancer Society.  


We had a impressive day ahead of this front.  This was a ladyfish only tourney and boy did we find some. We boated over 70 fish and weighed in our best 12 for a weight of 13.94 locking up a 3rd place spot. Thanks to the Timbers Resturant and the Sanibel Grill for their sponsorship. Our team fished nothing but artificial which provided a lot of great action.... Big trout, snook  and jack crevalle but the big treat was jumping tarpon as the sun was rising. Funny what a little change in temperature will do. 

Please contact Angela should you want to participate in one of our local fishing tournaments!  We'll get you hooked up!

Fort Myers Beach Fishing Tournament

The Racks & Reels fishing tournament out of Fort Myers Beach, Florida was a great event that raised money for the American Cancer Society. 

I was lucky enough to guide one of the winning teams and ended up with a third place finish!  This all ladies tournament was the first in what we hope will be a yearly fishing event!


Congrats to Ashley Kneram, Kaitlin Rae and Kelly Bonkowski for winning the $3000 purse!  Way to go girls!

If you would like to do a fishing tournament on my boat please contact me. I can let you know of any upcoming events you can enter and hopefully win like Team Timbers pictured above!
