Well..... it's been an interesting past 6 months. I'm literally still waiting on the new engine to come in. Supposedly the world is in utter chaos due to Covid 19 and nothing can get shipped out or built but whatever life goes on. Anyways down to fishing, I recently inherited/acquired another boat to use while I'm waiting on my new engine to come in. It's a 21ft Maverick Flats boat with a 225 hp Yamaha Vmax. It's been a little tough getting back in the swing of things as well as juggling a full time job doing airboat tours at Camp Holly. We've done a few inshore/nearshore trips in the last few weeks and things have went pretty decent. In this flats boat I'm limited to what I can do with her but we've still been able to produce some decent fish. We've caught some nice sea trout, snook, goliath grouper, kingfish, flounder, snapper, blue runners, and small sharks. If the seas are real nice, we've been able to get out to some of the closer reefs catching snapper, kings, and flounder. If the seas are rough it's been drifting the inlet for snook, redfish, and jack crevalle, or fishing along the mangrove shorelines for snook, redfish, sea trout, mangrove snapper, etc...
The Red Snapper days are this weekend July 9, 10, & 11 and unfortunately I'm not able to get out to do any of them.
From what I've been told, hopefully the new engine will be in by the end of the month or mid August. The new airboat is also in the process of getting finished and hopefully that will be getting done about the same time the engine comes in. I want to thank all my loyal customers who have been hanging tight and being patient with me, it means the world to me that you keep in touch and I promise we'll be slaying some fish soon enough.
