Moving Locations to Find Sheepshead On an early season sheepshead trip, I had to move a lot to get a limit of fish. Most anglers sat in one spot and wondered why they could not get a bite. Moving makes a difference on a slow bite day.

Gulf Grouper Fall means a change of weather with cooling temperatures, and cooling water temperatures mean fish. While lots of anglers opt for football, the savvy Gulf of Mexico anglers are sharpening their hooks and getting ready to jerk some grouper off the bottom... Read more...

Save a Fish to Catch a Fish Fish conservation and saving the resources is at once both emotional and radical in some circles. Marine Protection Areas - No Fish Zones - are popping up along the coast line in many areas. Are they right? Is the science behind them flawed?
Here is my original take on at least a part of the issue. A follow-up from a Biologist comes up next.

Flounder Fishing Fool! Fall has been late coming and as such, the migration of big, doormat flounder has been delayed - actually I believe it has just slowed and been extended. We have been catching big flounder in the inlets for two months now... Read more...

A Big Bull for John We ran probably 10 miles off the reef, past the southbound shipping lanes and toward the middle of the Gulfstream. Southbound ship traffic always runs just inside the stream to avoid it's six-knot northerly current. Northbound traffic rides the middle to take every advantage of the extra push. We found a small weed line of Sargasso and put out our baits... Read more...

East Coast Fall Bite is On The bite is on up and down the eastern seaboard and boats are limiting on a variety of fish - that is if they are able to get out. This fall has been a particularly windy one, and relatively calm days are few and far between. Read more...

Catching Rockfish in the Albemarle Sound
While the fish we caught were relatively small, we had a blast catching over twenty rocks in less than thirty minutes. Once we located a school while trolling plugs, we stopped and jigged the pilings . Had double hook-ups numerous times. Actually left them biting at dark!

Catching Bluefin Tuna in the Northeast US is Exciting and Rewarding Although fall means that bluefin tuna season is almost over in the northeast, some big catches can still be made by those who watch the weather and make the 20 to 30 mile trip offshore in search of BFTs. Fishing offshore in the northeast US usually means being a part of a fleet of anglers, all looking for the same thing - a big tuna...Catching Bluefin Tuna in the Northeast US is Exciting and Rewarding originally appeared on About.com Saltwater Fishing on Wednesday, October 28th, 2009 at 12:29:27.

Take Advantage of Bad Weather Sometimes the weather and wind is just too much for us to handle. We sit home wishing we were fishing. There are some things we can do when the weather kicks up and prevents us from getting out on the water. I wonder how many of you think about these things on bad fishing days
