Today repeat client Ike Wyant from Iowa had a great day in the Florida Everglades. The day started out real slow and not looking to good . After all the rain they were pushing a lot of water through the canals. So after a few hour and only …3 small fish , I decided to put the boat back on the trailer and head to another canal system . Then in the last hour all hell broke loose and we started catching fish in one stretch on Gambler Ace baits. Don’t leave home without them. Here are two more that Ike caught at the end of the day to remember with “The Hawghunter” We won’t talk about the “HAWG” that got off at the boat., I think Ike is still crying about it. When the bite is tough you have to go find them and that’s just we did . We are getting into out spawning season soon so book your prime dates early. Capt. Frank Carbone , The “Hawghunter” is ready with his team of licensed guides.

Long time client and friend LT. Chessley Atchison from Maryland spent some R&R on the water fishing for Peacock & Largemouth Bass today. On day one he had a fantastic day catching near 30 Peacock Bass and only one Mylan. Now day 2 wasn’t so productive, with the Hot weather sunny blue bird shies, and no wind made fishing kind of tough. Even though we only caught 9 fish we did manage to put these two nice bass in the boat. If you are thinking of coming down this winter plan your choice dates, now why they are still available. Thanks for another great season to all my clients this year that I fished with. Have a Great Lobor Day weekend Capt. Frank Carbone

In the past week we have been hitting the Glades in search for some big Bass, “well we found some”. Even with this hot weather blue bird skies, sunny and no wind days, we can still catch bass in Florida. First I went out with a friend of mine Steve and in 4 hours caught over 30 bass on Top water and large snakes as you can see. Once the sun came up we had to go deep in the center of the canal to catch them. Next I spent two day with a 14 year old Jersey boy, John Hayes. I’ll tell you he could out fish several adults I’ve been out with through the years. John listened to everything I had to say and was excellent in his casting. The first day was a bit slow , but managed to put a few in the boat including this “HAWG” Now day two same weather conditions , but much better John caught over 20 bass himself including these bigger ones , and we won’t talk about the one that got away. Then I finished the week off with Steven Bromley from Texas, also catching around 20 bass with a couple of nice 4 lb. Bass. Florida is a year round fishery for both largemouth & Peacock Bass. Our peak season is from Dec- May , especially Jan – March when most everyone wants to get out of the cold. So if your thinking about coming down this winter book your peak date’s now to assure a spot with “The Hawghunter”. Capt. Frank Carbone and Guides 954-325-1115
