Check out episode 3 of the Bud n’ Mary’s YouTube show! Featuring Capt. Jim Willcox.

Got out with Pierre and the crew from Sweden Martin, Magnus, and Fredrick!  We fished a full day in the backcountry.  Caught some bait early which we had to work a little for but got what we needed.  Snook fishing was fair, not a red hot bite but a steady pick.  We fished probably half a dozen spots and caught 15 or so.  Also got a nice juvenile tarpon and missed one more!  The last couple hours we went on the outside and eventually got into a few spots with some nice reds!  Probably caught a dozen or so, lost one big 15-20 lb one at the boat unfortunately.  Also caught the same juvenile goliath about 5 times – he had a line in his mouth so we knew it was him!  But all in all a decent day with steady action and good enough to keep 4 guys busy!  1 for 2

Got out with Sun and John for a half day.  We had all kinds of fun with snook, redfish, big snappers, and goliath groupers.  It was really incredible fishing on our pilchards.  But we also found a few baby tarpon rolling around!  Pitched a few baits to them, and we managed to hook a couple.  One broke off but we got the other one landed.  So a backcountry slam for Sun!  Also we just dropped the latest Bud n’ Mary’s YouTube show so check it out!
