Ye Ole Pirate Fishing Charters

May 17 - 31, 2009 06/05/2009
The offshore fishing has been great. Excellent weather and calm seas have produced full coolers of sea bass, grouper, snapper, trigger fish and shark. The inshore charters produced very nice catches of bull whiting even with the water still being muddy from days and days of rain from tropical storm Anna. The Spanish Mackerel have been abundant but very finicky and elusive.

Returning from Sunday's 3/4 day offshore trip, some nice sized cobia and barracuda were spotted hanging around the channel markers (inshore) between Cumberland Island and Amelia Island. Ye Ole Pirate will be back looking for them later this week with the inshore trips. We are also expecting to see some respectable kingfish soon.

Cut up pogie worked best with the grouper and snapper and the sea bass were hitting hard on the squid. My Mate had a good work out helping some first timers get their catches into the boat and not one keeper was lost.
The early morning action was fast, furious and non-stop with more keepers than throw backs. The early afternoon produced more action and less keepers but still provided a very respectable catch.
