Had a special guide trip with my 3 peat client, Andy. His BIL Christian also joined us for a full day of fishing in the Everglades.

Our outing was scheduled for 630, but I arrived at 6 am to set up and chill for a bit. It was nice hanging in the dark, listening to all the sounds the glades had to offer.

Andy and Christian arrived right on time, and off we went. Since I fished the area on Fri I had a game plan in mind. Unfortunately, the fish changed their game plan, and the morning bite was slow.

We moved around a lot and the boat traffic was pretty significant. The water was pretty stained, plus with all the boats, the water clarity was pretty bad.

In the late morning I made another move and fortunately found a quiet stretch water. Thankfully, both Andy and Christian started to catch fish consistently. Christian caught a beautiful peacock and bass.  Andy found his rhythm and began catching a fair amount of decent bass.





The afternoon bite picked up, and I extended our outing 30 more minutes. As 1:30 came around, I called the trip. Andy and Christian successfully boated 13 bass and peas. All in all, we had a great time.



Thank you for reading!

Tx George. There was no current running. Just a lot of stained water at various places. Your playground had the cleanest water. ;)
