"Green Moon Strikes Again!" | Tiberias - 22' | 02/01/12

Headed out Wednesday morning as the winds were slight and right for searching the flats for fish. I struggled to get over a few sandbars as tide was extremely low. About the time I was ready to throw in the towel, I noticed movement to my left. Several reds were moving along an oyster bar about 30 feet away. I made a cast about 10 feet ahead hoping to intercept. Bam! A 23" red slammed it in full stride and the fight was on! Absolutely awesome to see it all unfold in 2 feet of water. The rest of the group scattered and headed to an unknown location. I moved on,  spotting a small group of five reds, but they were not interested. I moved a little further and a couple of 10 inch flounder slipped out of the mud. A few more yards and a few nice size trout spooked to my right. The flat was alive! Unfortunately, I could not get anymore fish to bite, but it was great to see them. See ya on the water!

"Green Moon" | Tiberias - 22' | 01/30/12

Finally, talked Brant into carrying some new colors here at the OIFC. Here is a little video of what I caught with our new color in Bass Assassin's Sea Shad collection. Our water is super clear right now and this color has been smoking them here of lately. Come by and check it out! See ya on the water!

"Going Big Time" | OIFC World Cat / Carolina Cat | 01/30/12

www.thestreet.com which I think is a pretty big deal ??  Did an interview on couples working together and chose Amy and I for part of their report.  Here is the link -- pretty small, but still pretty neat to be considered in this big world.

"Sunset Beach Boat Ramp" | Get Busy | 01/29/12

I took some pictures of the construction site of the new boat ramp.  I looks like it is going to be a single ramp facility located at the  exact place where the old swing bridge was located.  I don't know anymore than the pictures show.

"Clear water making it Tough?" | Tiberias - 22' | 01/28/12

I have recieved several questions concerning the redfish bite around our area right now. The clear water has made getting close to the fish and getting them to bite difficult at times. Up and down weather patterns, water temperatures, and porpoises have kept large schools of redfish on the move. I have shared additional information about this subject on our How to's page. See ya on the water!

"Steeples Action" | OIFC World Cat / Carolina Cat | 01/28/12

Wendell Barnett and Neal Loman caught 4 wahoo at the Steeples on Thursday the 26th in 71.5 ft. of water.  The biggest was 61 lbs.  They lost four hook ups.

"RFA DC RALLY- HERE WE GO AGAIN !" | OIFC World Cat / Carolina Cat | 01/27/12

The Recreational Fishing Alliance is planning another rally in Washington DC on March 21.  The idea is to reiterate and reinforce our resolve to correct fisheries issues as presented in the original rally in 2010.  The OIFC will again be sponsoring a bus to carry concerned fishermen to DC- free of cost.  The details of the rally are at http://www.joinrfa.org/  --

If you want a seat on the bus, you need to email me immediately- first come, first serve- email captbrant@OIFC.com

There will be more details to follow, but just wanted to get info out so bus seats can get filled.

"Lets go Wahoo and Tuna Fishing" | OIFC World Cat / Carolina Cat | 01/26/12

Weather looks good on Saturday.  I know its late notice but I wanted to make sure we got the Carolina Cat back from getting its brand new Yamaha F300's installed before I tried to put anything together.  The latest satellite shot shows perfect Wahoo/Blackfin water out on the break.  Lets break in the new motors and put some fish in the boat.  Plan is to head out early Saturday morning to the Steeples where several BIG Wahoos and Blackfins were caught earlier this week.  Will most likely mix it up with some trolling for Wahoo's and then some Vertical Jigging for the tunas if we mark them like I think we will. I am looking for 4 folks to go with me on this winter adventure.  Cost is $395 per person.  Give me a call at 910-620-9919 to book your spot. If your boat is put up for the winter and you are wanting some offshore therapy, this is your trip.  Lets go gettem...
