As the cold fronts move in, the fishing and weather conditions improve. Great fishing this time of year. It's time to book that Thanksgiving fishing trip!

Report for the Week Ending 10/17/09 by Butch Rickey (10/17/2009)
I got in two trips this week, and both were with old friends that I've known and fished with for years; Bruce Miller, of Cape Coral, and Ron “Texas Wader” Hunter, of Palmetto. Fishing with old friends makes even the tough days great, and the great days awesome.

Pine Island Sound Report for the Week Ending 10/10/09 by Butch Rickey (10/13/2009)
I managed to run two out of three scheduled trips this week. It was a week plagued with equipment problems that worked only because my old friend Terry Ryan, who was on Sanibel for the week and scheduled to fish with me Sunday and Monday, swapped his beast of a Chevy diesel truck for my car for a couple of days, allowing me to get my boat to the ramp, and Terry and his gang to get around on the islands.

Week Ending 9/19/09 by Butch Rickey (9/18/2009)
I actually got to get out on the water two days this week! Both days were great. We had storms just offshore both mornings, and a nice easterly breeze for most of the day that kept us cool until mid-day when we were about done.

Week ending 8/15/09 - Pine Island Sound The Slam! by Butch Rickey (8/16/2009)
I did get out one day this week. Morning storms were again a factor, and messed with my plans. But, I had a couple of great guys, and we had a good time in spite of the weather.

Tight Lips and Tough Trips! And, A Great Week! by Butch Rickey (7/25/2009)
I actually managed to get in three trips this week, which honestly is about all of the July heat my old body can handle. Fishing in the Sound is tough. Tight lips are definitely making for tough trips.

Exploring Charlotte Harbor After Nearly Twenty Years by Butch Rickey (7/18/2009)
I did get on the water once this week, but I'd hardly call it work. I went up to Charlotte Harbor with my long-time friend Bubba Baker, and his tournament partner, Scott. They were getting ready for a redfish tournament this weekend, and I was going to show them around in an area that I used to fish some twenty years ago.

Report for the Week Ending 6/27/09 by Butch Rickey (6/30/2009)
Seems it's been nearly impossible to get a descent week in since Easter passed. This week was no exception. I ran one of the three trips I had on the books. Catching also continues to be a challenge.

Report for the Week Ending 6/20/09 by Butch Rickey (6/21/2009)
As I mentioned in last week's report, I was on a short vacation this week. But, I did come back to Ft. Myers to run a trip with an old friend, Dave Adair, of Cincinnati, and two of his friends Paul and Jeff, of Cisco Systems, from Colorado. I wouldn't miss a chance to spend a day on the water with Dave. We've known each other for ten years now, and he's a great guy, a laid back but passionate angler, and always fun.
