DOA Cal lure + 10 lb line = 18 lb Snook

September can be a little slow in the fishing charter business so I took my son Spencer out fishing. We left the Punta Rassa boat ramp and headed straight to the north end of Sanibel Island. Spencer caught this huge snook using 10 lb test power pro line and a DOA Cal lure on a 1/8 ounce jig head. We estimated the weight to be approximately 18 lbs as it was 40 inches in length. He caught more Snook that day but this was by far the biggest.

Sanibel Flats Redfish

Carter Smith and his good friend Gus caught about 20 redfish on yesterday's Sanibel Island fishing charter. All of the fish were caught using artificial lures and all were released to be caught again by someone else. Some small trout and one snook were also caught. The size of the redfish ranged from 24 to 27 inches. At one point, Carter caught a redfish on four consecutive cast.

This slot sized Red stopped by the boat today to pose for a few photos with my anglers on their Sanibel Island fishing charter.
