WINTER CASTIN' AND BLASTIN' REPORT

Hello 2012!

Hope you all survived the Holiday Season and are looking forward to a great 2012. As for Duck Hunting…it in full force! This time of year around Rockport you hear the early morning hunters taking their shots as most are just rolling out of bed, and see the hunters clad in camo coming in for a quick bite before heading back out for the afternoon hunt. The first season was successful, and second season opened back up Dec 10 and is promising to be even better. Season will run through Jan. 29, 2012.

My guys have had a great run this season, many killing their limits of birds on any given day. We have been primarily hunting the Bayfront for Redheads, Bluebills and Buffleheads, or hunting the shallow waters in back lakes for Pintail, Wigeon and Teal. There is nothing like heading out across the water before sunrise on a mission in the Airboat. When we arrive to our spot and I put out the spread, you get to just sit back and wait for the birds to start coming overhead…most of the time you will hear them coming before you see them. Then the action starts! What a way to start your day!

Not only is it Duck Season in Rockport, but as always...it is a great time to fish. Many customers prefer a little bit of both and choose a Cast n’ Blast. We hunt the morning and then go fishing. You may not realize it, but fishing this time of year can be amazing. We have had a lot of luck catching Black Drum and Redfish out of the Airboat. What could be better than a day started with Hunting and finished with fishing…

2011 was one of my best years yet as a Fishing and Hunting Guide, and part of that is Thanks to You. Thank you for your business. Give me a call and let’s get started on some new Memories for 2012! It may be Duck Season now…but warm weather and Spring fishing is just around the corner! 2012 Books are open and starting to fill up…Plan your trips today!
