Latest Fishing Trip with Reel Threel Charters

Segal 

Met my charter at Surfside Marina on the morning of January 22, 2010. We were searching for kingfish and amberjack 60 to 70 miles out from shore. We got to our spot after a two-and-and-a-half hour boat ride. The water was warm and blue. Made a drift over the structure, and wham! There was a 30-pound kingfish. The kings were there, but the current was strong. Made several more drifts, and after catching our five-man limit of kings, we tried bottom drops for amberjacks... Bottom drops produced red snapper on every drop, and no amberjacks!


So I say, "Let's go to another spot." As we were getting ready, this huge mako shark shows up. We try to get his attention with some cut bait, but he goes away. We had a bonita in the box, so we put it on the hook and troll back up to the spot. After five minutes, the big monster hits the bonita on the troll. We let him eat the bait, and he gets the hook. After three different jumps, lots of boat and angler maneuvering and an hour and a half of a fight, the shark is subdued.


Boat maneuvering was done by Capt. Mike Segall, and the angler was Capt. Cole Sikes.

2010 Bay Point Invitational Tournament
 
27th Annual Bay Point Invitational, to be held July 14th - 18th, 2010 at Bay Point Marina in Panama City Beach, Florida!

The Gulf Coast's premier Billfish tournament, the Invitational is known for big fish, big crowds and big parties, and 2010 is no exception. With a well-deserved reputation for innovation, Bay Point pushes the envelope again this year with some exciting changes.

Times are tight, and we feel your pain. With this in mind, the Tournament has reduced entry fees for the second year in a row, dropping from $8,500 in 2008 to only $5,000 in 2010! Think of it this way - you can save $3,500 and still go fishing!
