If any of you have been on the water in Barkley Sound the past week you’ll know exactly what I am talking about. I have had guests that turn green in a good swell but not like this. It’s not often that the water around the Sound is a bright and somewhat beautiful aqua green, …

Hi All Well, we are right smack dab in the middle of prime time. Barkley Sound is pumping. You can find limits of springs at all the local hot spots. Kirby, Fleming, the Wall, Beale, Austin and Cree are all happening right now. Get up early and take advantage of the early morning bite. It …

It’s been so good that it has to end, it’s got to come …
Hi All No stories, no addendums, no superfluous addons. Just the facts people! It is on! The fishing is fantastic right now. Going through my log books this has been the best fishing I can remember in late July early August. Call in sick, tell work you have covid or your grandpa passed away, again… …
