We have an open boat for Wednesday and Thursday! The sea's will be 1-2 ft!!

Also have two boats open for this weekend! Friday, Saturday and Sunday!

Sat & Sun April 4th & 5th

Saturday was a little on the rough side! We were looking for tuna, ended up running a good bit with nothing to show for it. The water was dirty and the current was strong. After a few hours of tuna hunting, we decided to put some meat in the boat. With large mullet and hardtail we were able to head home with a nice box of amberjack. A couple of them around 50 pounds!

Sunday everone canceled except for my crew and Capt Josh with Super Strike! Josh and I talked out a plan before leaving Venice Marina, we all thought it would be super rough but that wasnt the case at all! In fact, it was beautiful! Big long rollers!

I decided to put meat in the box first this time! We stopped at one of my favorite amberjack spots and before lunch we had a limit of AJ's with the largest being 70 pounds! We even had an almaco jack that was 4 pounds shy of a state record!

After we had ice on the jacks, we went looking for tuna! The first spot was the right spot!! The boat was still in gear when I saw the first tuna jump! We got the angry popper down, missed the first hook up but the second throw would prove to be the deadly one! After 20 mins, I stuck the gaff in a 75 pound yellowfin! Because we got to the spot late in the day, we were only able to catch three yellows and one black but the fish were everywhere! We had to leave them biting! With the right live bait, we would have filled every box on the boat!

I fished last Wednesday and I have spent almost a week trying to figure out how to sugar coat the trip but I cant do it, so here you go!!!

IT JUST SUCKED!!!

I ran far, I just knew it would pay off!! NOPE!! We left out of South Pass, stopped at Elf, nothing, ran to the tower, dead, over to Thunder Horse, no bait, then to another floater next to Thunder Horse, Not a fish! Talked to a huge crew boat captain there, he said he has not seen a fish in weeks there, even at night!!! Not what I wanted to hear!! Back to elf!! Plenty of blackfin taking a jig, Plenty of barracuda taking blackfin & JIG!!

We could not catch a break! Stopped at another rig to pick up a few jacks and grouper but only found a few almaco!!! Nice Boat Ride!!

I am glad that is out of the way!! The water was beautiful at the tower and thunder horse, just no fish and no bait!! Shouldnt take much longer! The water temp was 75 deg and I did see a good bit of grass, so there is hope!! HA HA!!

We are catching tuna but not there yet! Maybe another week or so!! The trick right now is BAIT BAIT BAIT!
If you have the right bait and you find the fish, you are set!!

The summer is almost here!! Water is warming up, fish are moving in, I hope the wind is going away! We have two boats this year so we have plenty of open dates! If you have large groups, we have you covered!

Snapper season opens June 1st, opening day is still open!

Gary,  We took two trips this week to Chandy fishing the surf and cuts.  Caught over 80 trout on the last trip and a few less on the one before.  Barely any fisherman where we fish, too.  It's serious wadefishing to say the least.  Email me at michaelbutler012@gmail.com  I usually fish in the winter at Chandy because the summer fishing at Horn is pretty good and a lot closer. I'll go if it's 35 degrees  or 75 degreess outside.  Doesn't matter to me, and the fish don't seem to care either.  Email me and we will talk.

I constantly read about the big trout caught in the winter surf fishing. I surf fish alot here in Louisiana. What does the water temperature have to do with you catching of big trout in the surf. Is there a certain range it must be in? Alot of people in Louisiana believe the trout disappear from the shallowa in the cold months and move to deep water. I disagree and consistently catch fish thru out the year.
Please reply with any info. We fish the Chandeleur Island chain pretty much year round. We have no competition where we fish in the winter. Would be interested in swapping trips with a serious  trout fisherman.

From what I see the really big trout are taken in the winter months, but we would like to make a trip during the fall. Before I load the wife in the car for an 8 hour trip can you let me know if there is a chance of catching a 8-9 lb fish in the fall? Any advice is appreciated.

Galveston, TX USA

Well this week has been real simple: Good weather excellent fishing - near limits and limits of trout; Bad weather (high winds) tough fishing. We have been able to catch some fish with the high winds, but we really have to grind it out. Sometimes when the winds are high and the water is dirty or both you just have to bite the bullet and go catch fish. Trout and redfish are always are #1 goal, but mother nature sometimes has other plans. We are still using shrimp under a popping cork near the shorelines and when possible soft plastics have worked under birds on an incoming tide. Hopefully the bay will have a chance to clear up so we can get out to the mid bay reefs and catch some of those hungry trout. When the wind has been right the causeway bridge up to Tx. City has been productive. I look for East Bay to turn on real soon.Until next time, see you on the water.

Dauphin Island, AL USA

This is a copy of a letter I am sending to my representatives in the Senate and Congress. Please people jump on the band wagon and make some noise!

Dear Senator Sessions

   I am writing to you today as a humble constituent with grave concerns over the issue of Red Snapper management by Dr. Roy Crabtree and National Marine Fisheries. I ask that as you read this letter that you please forgive the emotional tone of my writing as none of my frustration is directed at you but at those who threaten my lively hood with unjust and unnecessary regulation.
  
   Please allow me to begin by telling you who I am and why I hold the positions I am about to convey. My name is Jonathan L. Dunnam and I am a thirty nine year old, second generation captain and I own a charter fishing vessel which is operated out of Dauphin Island, Al. I have had my captains’ license for nineteen years and was a deckhand throughout my teenage years. So as you can see I have my whole life invested in this business. I started out working for other people and then went on to buy a small boat to start my own charter service. I eventually stuck my neck out and invested in the boat I own now which is a large boat with a large mortgage. I have worked hard my entire life to get to where I am. I have never been one to complain, I just take what God gives me and do the best I can with it. I consider myself to be a patriotic citizen and a productive member of society. I love my country and support its government, however, I write this letter to inform you that my government is failing me and the entire country, with the mismanagement of the red snapper fishery by the National Marine Fisheries.

   I stand this very day on the verge of bankruptcy due totally to the unrealistic and unfair practices of the NMF using flawed data to set seasons and quotas. I have survived hurricanes and down turns in the economy but how can I survive such severe restrictions as a two month long season and two fish per person bag limits. I am a conservationist first and foremost and if the red snapper stocks were in trouble I would be the first to call for tighter restrictions. The fact of the matter is that red snapper stocks are at their highest levels of anytime during my lifetime. Even the NMF has stated that the fishery is rebuilding. So I hope you can understand my frustration with these unnecessary regulations that have such dire consequences for not only me but the entire for hire sector and all other associated businesses. In the Magnuson Stevens Act it clearly states that regulations shall be fair and equitable. There is nothing fair and equitable about being forced into bankruptcy or selling a business that has taken a life time to build.

   It is my opinion and the opinion of many others that there should be an investigation by congress into the actions of Dr. Crabtree and the National Marine Fisheries. With such egregious discrepancies in NMF’s stock assessments and what is actually in the Gulf I think something has to be done to rectify their data collection. NMF has admitted to using flawed data in the management of red snapper. With my and countless others livelihoods on the line, I simply cannot afford to be regulated by inconclusive or incorrect data or by a set of arbitrary dates and quotas to rebuild the stock by. The fact is that no one knows what the stock was in the 1950’s, so to pick a target number out of the air is unrealistic. With management measures so off base with reality it leads me to believe that there are alternative agendas at work here. As an example of this; Dr. Crabtree has announced that he will cut snapper season due to the expected increase in red snapper harvest due to Florida and Texas not abiding by the federal seasons and limits. Dr. Crabtree however offers no concession for higher fuel prices, the slower economy or any expected bad weather that will most assuredly reduce the amount of effort in the fishery thus reducing the harvest. This is a prime example of the cherry picking of data to justify these extreme regulations. Why is it that it is so easy for Dr. Crabtree to incorporate Florida And Texas state water harvest into the management model but has no means to do so with weather, fuel prices and the economy?  All the stock assessments are done in the Federal Exclusive Economic Zone which state waters are not included in. If state waters are not included in stock assessment then how can it be included in harvest data? The same thing applies to artificial reefs and oil and gas structures. They are not included in the NMF stock assessments but fish caught from these structures are included in the harvest data. This is a totally lopsided means of management.

   This is not really that complicated of an issue if someone would take a common sense look at it and put personal and political agendas aside. There is no reason that both the fish and the fisherman cannot be saved here. Reasonable limits and seasons that achieve the ultimate goal of a healthy fishery and monitoring of the fishery is all it would take.

   I, unfortunately have a small voice and little influence. That is why I turn to you, my honorable representative in government. You are in a position to take up this cause and make a difference in the lives of so many who depend on fishing to support themselves. Our coastal economy is also largely dependent on the fishing industry and will surely suffer if Dr. Crabtree is allowed to continue with his incompetent management of the NMF. I hope and pray that you will take action. Please initiate an investigation into Dr. Crabtree and the NMF. I also humbly ask that you ask congress to revise the arbitrary dates in the Magnuson Stevens Act that call for over fishing of red snapper to end by 2010 and that the stock be rebuilt by 2032. IT has already been determined that the stock is rebuilding therefore these dates put an undue economic burden on the charter industry along with countless related industries. They also compromise the God given right of access to your average fisherman.

   Thank you for your most valuable time and I appreciate your public service to this great nation.

God Bless
Captain Jonathan L. Dunnam

You will do much better out of Freeport if you like offshore. Much better variety, and a little quicker to deep water. I've made 5 trips out of Freeport in the past 10 yrs, all great. Plenty of Mahi, Kings, Snapper, Amberjack, some YF, Galveston is not as good. You can't beat Venice, LA though for world class offshore fishing within 30 miles of the coast.

Headed out of Venice Marina late friday night, anchored on the Lump and found the snapper bite off the chart but no tuna. Pulled the hook looking for wahoo with one hit and a miss so we went a little deeper for grouper with no results. So far it was a tough trip but with a picture perfect night and a full moon the sword bite was off the chart. Caught four and lost one after a 2.5 hr. fight at the boat due to a pulled hook. This fish was hooked on the tip top line and swam extreamly fast past the underwater light to give us the first glimps. It later surfaced several times clearing the water, what an awsome sight. If you are interested in an epic battle with the toughest fish in the gulf give me a call.

In process of relocating to TX from NC. Currently fish NC offshore  - excellent fishery! Been gathering as much information about TX offshore as possible. So far as I can tell Mahi/Wahoo bite spring - fall around weed lines and 30-50 miles out around structure (on the troll?). In NC we got YFT almost year round. Appears this is primarily a winter time venture and running 80-120 miles off. This pramarily chumming/chunking or also on troll? Also, any recommendations on good websites/reports would be helpful. Finally, looked at marinas in galveston and freeport - any comments here? Appears to me drive from Houston to Galveston may be a little shorter but offshore further than Freeport? Thank youfor any direction/advice you can offer!

Texas Fishing Folks - You probably already know that Texas Parks and Wildlife are considering capping the texas pogie catch.  They just put up some information on the web - you can see it here: http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/business/feedback/public_comment/proposals/200803_saltwater_fishing_proposal.phtml

Due to the fundamental role that pogies play in the Gulf marine food web (they're critically important forage for everything from redfish to sharks and brown pelicans), we're asking TP&W to do a bit more than just cap the catch:

(feel free to cut and paste into the TP&W form)

The cap is an important first step.  Please take these additional steps to ensure the Texas marine coastal ecosystem is as productive as possible.
• Set a temporary cap on menhaden fishing in Texas waters and start an assessment of menhaden that takes into account the needs of predators and the important role that menhaden play as filter feeders;
• Require industry-funded, government-trained observers on menhaden boats to count the amount of other sea life that gets killed in their nets;
• Stop menhaden fishing when the annual quota is met, without any 'rollover' quota allowed.

Without forage fish, marine birds, mammals, and fish go hungry.

The U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy urged fishery managers to manage America’s oceans using an ecosystem-based approach that addresses the interconnected nature of ocean life.  Forage fish are the glue that holds the marine food web together, converting tiny bits of algae into meals for fish, birds, and mammals.  Without abundant populations of forage fish, the Gulf will not support abundant, healthy populations of species such as red drum, dusky sharks and bottlenose dolphins.

If you want to take it one step further, please consider coming out and weighing in at one of the upcoming public hearings:

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Public Hearings

Comments on menhaden proposal will be heard (as well as other TP&W proposals)  

All meetings start at 7pm.

Beaumont       February 25     Jefferson County Courthouse, Ted Walker Jury Impaneling Room, 1149 Pearl Street

Nacogdoches  February 29     Commissioners Courtroom-Rm. 170, 101 W. Main
