Suzuki Marine has a longstanding tradition of listening to boat builders, dealers and boating enthusiasts and developing outboard motor technology that meets their needs. There is a name for this philosophy of continuous observation and improvement — San Gen Shugi — and following this philosophy has helped Suzuki Marine win nine NMMA (National Marine Manufacturer’s Association) Innovation Awards over the years. These awards are judged by a panel of top boating writers and journalists from around the world. Suzuki won its most recent Innovation Award for its flagship DF350A, the world’s first outboard motor with contrarotating twin propellers. But is has also won Innovation Awards for its DF25A/DF30A outboards, which introduced batteryless Electronic Fuel Injection and other new technology for small motors. In between, Suzuki has won Innovation Awards up and down its product line by making the latest and greatest outboard technology and features available to the widest range of boaters. In recent months, Suzuki has demonstrated this by introducing key new models like the DF300B, which brought the advantages of Suzuki’s exclusive contrarotating twin propellers to a range of offshore boats rated for 300/600/900/1200 horsepower. These advantages include superior grip on the water when boaters hit the throttle, for excellent hole shot and strong acceleration, improved top-end speed and enhanced low-speed (and reverse) maneuvering.

NNAPOLIS, Md., Sept. 8, 2020 – Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs), those pint-sized, individual rescue beacons used by boaters, sailors, and paddlers to summon emergency help have saved hundreds of lives since their authorization for use 17 years ago. That doesn’t mean they are maintenance free, according to the BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety. The boating safety nonprofit offers these simple tips to maintain and use a PLB.
• Not sure of your PLB registration’s emergency contact information? NOAA allows PLB owners to update contact info at any time and if you’re unsure of whom you have listed, you may want to take a look now. Outdated information can delay rescuers. • PLBs need to be tested, typically monthly, according to manufacturer recommendations. Testing does not activate a PLB so get comfortable checking one.
OWNER OPERATED Personal locator beacons (PLBs) can increase safety aboard, but they aren’t maintenance-free.
239-543-2100 WWW.OWLCREEKBOATWORKS.COM
• PLBs need to be registered with NOAA. As a way to ensure accurate, up-to-date information, registration is valid for just two years. While NOAA will attempt to reach you to re-register, it’s a good idea to put in on your calendar.

THE Florida MARINER #915 / 13 September 2020
After testing, confirm that the battery has not expired and the O-ring is in good shape. This will give you peace of mind that the PLB will operate flawlessly when you really need it. Battery life is typically five years. • Because they are worn by the user, PLBs can get banged up or abused during normal wear. It’s a good idea to check over the outer case for cracks or damage.
• What makes a PLB different from an Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB)? Both use NOAA’s Search And Rescue Satellite Aided Tracking (SARSAT) System to detect and locate mariners in distress, however EPIRBs are intended to
facilitate a rescue for a specific boat while PLBs are used for individual crew. The other big difference is PLBs can only be activated manually even if the wearer is underwater, while EPIRBs activate automatically upon submersion. • With larger batteries, EPIRBs are also rated to activate for a minimum of 48 hours while PLBs have a minimum of 24 hours. Having both aboard for offshore passages can increase redundancy and crew safety. • Do you have temporary need for a PLB? The BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water’s EPIRB / PLB Rental Program offers ACR ResQLink 406 MHz Personal Locator Beacons for $7 daily, $45 weekly, or $150 monthly. --About the BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water: The BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water is a national leader promoting safe, clean and responsible boating. Funded primarily by donations from the more than half-million members of Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS), the nonprofit provides innovative educational outreach directly to boaters and anglers with the aim of reducing accidents and fatalities, increasing stewardship of America’s waterways and keeping boating safe for all. A range of boating safety courses – including 36 free state courses – can be found at BoatUS.org/Courses.

Freedom Boat Club Named a “Top Growth Franchise” By Entrepreneur Magazine
V
ENICE, Fla. (September 8, 2020) – Freedom Boat Club, a division of Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC), has been ranked in the Top 100 in Entrepreneur magazine’s first Top Growth Franchises list. This list recognizes the 150 companies with the greatest positive franchise unit growth in North America over a three-year period, based on data submitted for Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® ranking. Freedom Boat Club is the largest boat club in the world with close to 240 locations in the U.S., Canada and Europe.
www.abelsmarine.com
To determine the 2020Top Growth Franchises ranking, Entrepreneur looked at each company’s U.S. and Canadian franchise numbers over a three-year period (from July 2016 to July 2019; given the rapid changes, COVID-19 impacts weren’t taken into account). In order to qualify, companies had to have positive growth of at least five units each year. They were ranked based on a formula that considers their total positive U.S. and Canadian franchise growth over the three years as well as factors that negatively affect growth, such as terminations, non-renewals, and other closures.
“We are honored to be named by Entrepreneur Magazine to its Top Growth Franchises list,” said Brenna Preisser, Brunswick Corporation President, Business Acceleration and Chief People & Strategy Officer. “Freedom added close to 140 new clubs around the world over the past three years and recently eclipsed 50,000 members. Boating participation accelerated this summer and most of our locations have seen record growth. We are pleased that this expansion includes attracting a younger demographic and more women into Freedom clubs. We are thankful for our Franchisee’s who operate as partners, have adapted during these dynamic times and are leaning into strong consumer demand for boating experiences.”

Suzuki Unveils New DF115BG/DF140BG 4-Cylinder Outboards First In Category to Offer Drive-by-Wire, New Features For Superior Performance and Efficiency
B
rea, CA — Suzuki Marine is recognized worldwide for making advanced technology and features available to boaters of all types — not just those who run the largest, highest-horsepower outboards. This tradition continues with today’s global unveiling of Suzuki’s new-for-2021 DF115BG and DF140BG 4-stroke outboards, the first in their class to offer all the advantages of drive-by-wire technology. By bringing its proven driveby-wire technology to its 115HP and 140HP in-line four-cylinder models, Suzuki is providing simplified rigging for a wide range of boat builders, along with silky smooth shifting, instant throttle response, enhanced performance and superior fuel efficiency. The reliability and precision control of Suzuki’s drive-by-wire technology has been proven for years on Suzuki’s popular 150HP through 350HP models. Enhancements to Suzuki’s new DF115BG/ DF140BG go far beyond the integration of drive-by-wire technology. An upgraded compression ratio of 10.6:1 helps these new 2.0-liter displacement outboards
achieve better top speed and acceleration by improving thermal efficiency. Fuel efficiency has also been increased as compared to Suzuki’s existing DF115/DF140A models. Tests have demonstrated as much as 5% to 7% better fuel efficiency for the DF140BG across mid-range to high-end cruising speeds. The new DF115BG has demonstrated up to 5% 6% better fuel efficiency at cruising speed. Other improvements include a 40 amp alternator on both models that delivers improved output and battery charging performance at low idle speeds — ideal for today’s power-hungry fishing boats that spend a lot of time trolling. While much has changed under the cowl, some enhancements to the new DF115BG/DF140BG are obvious to the eye. The engine itself features a sporty, streamlined exterior design that looks great on center consoles, flats skiffs, pontoon
boats, walleye rigs, bass boats and more. With 20-inch (L) and 25-inch (X) shaft lengths available, the new DF115BG/DF140BG outboards are an ideal power choice for a wide range of fresh and saltwater boats. Both new outboards boast new graphics and are available in Suzuki’s Pearl Nebular Black and new-for-2021 Super Cool White color schemes. The redesigned cowl also incorporates a new air intake structure with improved water separation and a silencer – resonator system to attenuate engine sounds and provide a pleasant boating experience at all engine speeds/RPM. To make routine maintenance easier, Suzuki made it possible to replace the oil filter simply by removing the upper engine cover. A new Oil Spill Catcher surrounding the oil filter mount allows for changing the filter without making a mess. Suzuki also added an easy access Water
Detection Fuel Filter to help protect the engine against contaminated fuel. “We are pleased to bring new technology and performance to this important class of outboard motor,” said George “Gus” Blakely, Vice President of Sales for Suzuki Motor of America, Inc., Marine Division. “These are not only the world’s first 4-stroke outboards in their class to include factory drive-by-wire technology, they feature a new design, a new look and enhanced performance for a wide range of boats around the world. In the Suzuki tradition, we’re delivering what the market and boat builders have told us they want,” added Blakely. The DF115BG/DF140BG will start production in October 2020 as 2021 model year outboards. For the foreseeable future, Suzuki Marine will continue to offer the existing DF115A and DF140A four-cylinder 4-stroke outboards alongside the new models. To learn more about the new 2021 DF115BG and DF140BG models — or Suzuki’s entire line up of premium quality 4-stroke outboard motors ranging from 2.5 to 350 horsepower, visit www.suzukimarine.com

For additional information please go to www.abcsb.org or call 321-220-7775. CLEARWATER COAST GUARD AUXILIARY TEACHING BOATING SAFETY CLASSES ONLINE- Sept. 21-24- A New Way to Learn … A New Crop of Safe Boaters. With the advent of COVID-19, the Coast Guard Auxiliary was advised to discontinue in-person classes for the safety of the instructors and students. The good news is that the State of Florida (FWC) and the National Association of Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) have approved the Coast Guard Auxiliary to conduct online classes. These classes are not your standard webinar sessions where the students sit at their computers and are lectured at. And they’re not animated cartoon sessions where you have to keep pressing enter to get to the next topic. The “Boat America” class for boaters and would-be boaters weighs anchor for four consecutive evenings starting September 21, 2020. All Instructors are experienced local sailors and powerboat skippers who are also USCG Auxiliary trained and certified instructors. This basic boating skills course provides a unique and excellent combination of boating theory, seamanship techniques, legal responsibilities, personal safety for crew and passengers, boat handling, rules of the road, the latest Federal boating regulations and other subjects which will help boaters and would-be boaters become safer and more proficient sailors. Public Education Officer Karen Miller states, "we are convinced that graduates of this course will enjoy boating more and will be less likely to have accidents or problems on the water. In addition, most of our graduates have fine safety records and receive insurance discounts as well, upon completing our courses." The Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary is offering “Boat America” evening classes over four consecutive evenings on September 21, 22, 23 and 24 from 7pm to about 9pm.. Classes are $40 per student and include the books, supplemental materials and course completion certificates. The classes being offered by the Clearwater Coast Guard Auxiliary are conducted on Zoom with the same instructors they would have had in the classroom and includes lots of questions and answers. In addition, because they’re on the Internet, there’s no commuting to a classroom – the students can be anywhere in Florida! The boating safety class is also a requirement for many boaters in Florida. In the Sunshine State, anyone born after Jan. 1, 1988, must successfully complete a boater safety course approved by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) in order to operate any boat powered by more than 10 horsepower, and they are required to carry their boater education card with them when out on the water along with picture ID. One hundred and thirteen members of the boating public graduated with honors from the first four boating safety classes conducted online on Zoom. Contact the Coast Guard Auxiliary, Clearwater Flotilla, for boating safety classes at: www.clwboatingsafety.com or by email at clwtr.auxboating@gmail.com or call 727-469-8895. Also, on Facebook at #clearwatercgaux. In keeping with local stay-at-home orders during the pandemic, America's Boating Club has suspended in-person classes for your safety. While staying safe and staying home, people can prepare for boating season by taking one of our 10 interactive online seminars ranging from All About Marine Radio and How to Use GPS to Weather for Boaters.

MARINE ENVIRONMENT AND ALCOHOL - CLEARWATER - Most people are not aware of the very real, life threatening dangers associated with consuming alcohol and boating. Add boating stressors to those usual factors resulting from drinking alcohol, and a truly perilous condition is present. Drinking alcohol produces certain physiological responses that directly affect safety and well-being. Judgement and skills deteriorate, affecting peripheral vision, balance, and ability to process information. Physical performance and reaction time are reduced. Alcohol reduces depth perception, night vision, focus, and the ability to distinguish colors, especially red and green. Alcohol consumption can result in inner ear disturbance, which can make it impossible for a person suddenly immersed in water to distinguish up from down. Alcohol creates a sense of warmth and may prevent a person in cold water from getting out before hypothermia sets in. The United States Coast Guard Auxiliary offers the acclaimed boating safety course, About Boating Safely. Classes begin the second weekend of every month. Please contact Leslie Long, Clearwater 11-1 Flotilla Commander at (727) 469-8895, auxboatingclass@gmail.com SARASOTA FLOTILLA 82 OF THE USCG AUXILIARY Florida law requires that any person born on or after Jan. 1, 1988, may not operate a vessel powered by a motor of 10 horsepower or greater unless such person has in his or her possession, aboard the vessel, photographic identification, a Florida boater safety identification card (or any other state’s boating card), and the registration for their vessel. Regarding the above law, which has been in effect for over a year, Flotilla 82 of the USCG Auxiliary, based in Sarasota, Florida (at Mote Marine) offers a 1-day course held on the last Saturday of each month. It starts at 9:00 am and completes at 5:00 pm. The course

As the vessel’s captain, you’re responsible for the safety of your crew, any surrounding vessels and the environment where you boat. With that responsibility comes a need for a basic level of knowledge and good situational awareness.
1. Always Maintain a Watch This means you or someone aboard is always a lookout, watching for other boats, navigation aids, people in the water or upcoming hazards.
To help build that understanding, here are a few tips to keep you and other vessels safe.
2. Understand Marine Navigation Rules The best boat collision deterrent is knowing the Rules of the Road and which vessel has the right of way when two boats meet. Part of these rules also includes being able to recognize aids to navigation such as buoys and channel markers and understanding what lights are being exhibited by another vessel with oncoming, crossing or anchored traffic at night.
What Should You Do to Avoid Colliding with Another Boat? • Always maintain a watch. • Understand marine navigation rules. • Stay clear of shipping lanes. • Understand the implications of speed. • Remain visible at all times. • Keep your VHF radio on underway. • Only boat when well-rested and sober. • Expect the unexpected. • Maintain a speed appropriate to conditions. • Boat smart and use common sense.
Standing a watch is especially important in times of reduced visibility such as in fog or at night. Keep binoculars at hand.
You’ll also need to know the basics of sound signals: • One short blast means a boat is leaving you to port. • Two blasts means they’re leaving you to starboard. • Five blasts means danger and you’d better figure out quickly if it was meant for you. 3. Stay Clear of Shipping Lanes Shipping lanes are routes used for large vessels ferrying cargo to and from port. These lanes are usually marked on charts as magenta swaths. They are typically five miles wide and have up- and down-stream traffic lanes.
Large ships travel at high speeds and five miles can take a sailboat an hour to cross so it’s imperative to stay out of these lanes and cross them at a 90-degree angle, which represents the shortest time spent in the danger zone. Never fish, anchor, heave to or stop for any reason in shipping lanes. 4. Understand the Implications of Speed Ships travel on average at 30 knots, so even if you’re not in the shipping lanes, understand that a cargo vessel or cruise ship can move from the horizon to your location in 15 minutes. • Don’t try to outrun a crossing vessel. • If unsure whether or not you can make it across before they reach you, turn slightly and take their stern (go behind them)—it’s not only safer, it’s also more polite. 5. Remain Visible at All Times Small pleasure crafts are hard to see, especially from the deck of a ship and especially in fog or at night. • Turn on running lights from dusk to dawn and display the proper light schemes if anchored. • Carry a radar reflector so your return is picked up on another vessel’s radar and consider adding AIS (Automatic Identification System) capability to your own radar. • Per the US Coast Guard, use a strobe light only as a distress signal. 6. KeepYour VHF Radio on While Underway The VHF radio is to be kept on when you’re
www.TheMariner.com
moving. • Keep it tuned to the distress and hailing frequency on Channel 16 in case another vessel is calling. • Remember, they don’t know who you are so you may be called as “fishing vessel off my port bow”. • Always switch to another working frequency once you’ve established contact and want to continue communications. 7. Only Boat When Well-Rested and Sober Fatigue leads to faulty decision making so just as with driving a car, don’t operate a boat when tired or sleepy. Keep in mind that boating under the influence (BIU) is just as dangerous and serious as a DIU. 8. Expect the Unexpected When boating in the early morning or late afternoon when there’s glare on the water from a low-lying sun, move slowly and keep an extra vigilant lookout. Remember that on lakes, rivers and coastal areas, debris increases after a storm or significant rainfall so you may get the unexpected log or bucket in your way. 9. Maintain a Speed Appropriate to
Conditions • Slow down in no wake zones and in limited visibility. • Don’t speed around roped off swimming zones as you don’t know if there are people outside the designated area. • If there is traffic or congestion around piers where large vessels are docking or pulling out, keep clear as their prop wash may create turbulence that will impact the control of your vessel. 10. Boat Smart and Use Common Sense Fun boating and safe boating go hand-inhand. Here’s a few more factors to keep in mind to ensure a great day on the water for you and other boaters: • Don’t engage in towing sports in navigation channels or secluded anchorages where people may be swimming. • Look in all directions before making a turn and that includes behind you. • Don’t assume the other guy knows what he’s doing and if in doubt, keep clear. Avoiding boat collisions is up to everyone so never assume someone else will take evasive measures even if you have the right of way. Avoid boating accidents— boat smart.

Captain’sCorner with Captain Kyle Messier Marching to the beat of a different Drum!
dusk and dawn to be the most productive.
Septemeber has long been known as a challenging month for many Nature Coast Anglers. Hot and humid temperatures combined with unpredictable weather and fish patterns that change daily based on currents and tidal flow are just a few of the challenges that anglers have to deal with this month. However, even with the trickiest of fishing obstacles, the most persistent anglers always refer back to the tried and true methods of Fishing Shade or Structure!
Now if you’ve never had the opportunity to witness a Florida sunrise or sunset you don’t know what you’re missing. On the same token, watching a Redfish or Snook blow up a gurgler, top water lure or live bait as the sun’s rising or setting is a spectacle that wont soon be forgotten. As funny as it sounds it’s not the visual that anglers remember most about these strikes, it’s the sound of the explosion. During the deep summer months of August and September I encourage all anglers to fish the largest lures, live baits and fly patterns that they have in their boxes. Anything with a large profile that moves or makes noise will likely gain the attention of a hungry Nature Coast Redfish or Snook. Rapala Skitterwalks, Zara Spooks and large Pinfish and Pigfish are just a few of the baits that spin anglers should arm themselves with and for those anglers chucking flies its hard to beat a 6-8” chartreuse Gurgler tied on a 2/0 hook.
Think about this: When it feels like 100° outside where do you find your self most of the time? You’re probably soaking up the air conditioning in the comforts of your own home as we speak reading this enlightening article, because it’s nice and cool and you have a roof over your head. Most summer time fish species feel the same way. Redfish, Snook, and Black Drum are probably the most notable inshore species that appreciate a good piece of structure containing shade, but this time of year they can be a challenge to feed due to the over abundance of prey which often leads to unpredictable feeding patterns. To combat this trickery most anglers will find that fishing the low light hours around
When mentioning large baits and fly’s it’s important to throw a couple of large live blue crabs in the well while baiting up in the morning or keep a 10wt rod rigged with a big nasty crab pattern handy for the just incase Black Drum scenario. Summer time is Prime Time for targeting large
with Captain Rick Grassett September is one of my favorite months. Reds should be schooling on shallow grass flats and you also might find big trout there at first light. Baitfish along beaches will attract Spanish mackerel, false albacore (little tunny), sharks, tarpon and more. You should find snook around docks and bridges in the ICW. There should also be tarpon around bridges at night and in areas of Tampa Bay and Charlotte Harbor. Juvenile tarpon from 10 to 30-pounds should be a good option in creeks and canals. Tarpon will still be a good option this month. There may still be a few singles, doubles and small schools in the coastal gulf and if you’ve got the patience to wait them out it can be good. Many have moved to inside waters this month, so you’ll find them around bridges, over deep grass flats or deeper areas. When tarpon move into these areas, they are in a feeding mode. After a long migration and with their spawning duties completed, they need to rest and eat to restore themselves. Ladyfish will feed in glass minnow schools and tarpon will gorge themselves on ladyfish. I have also seen tarpon, “ball” glass minnows into tight schools, and eat them by the bucket full! DOA Baitbusters, TerrorEyz and DOA Shrimp are my favorite tarpon lures this time of year. Fly anglers should score with wide profile patterns, such as Lefty’s Deceiver or EP flies. Small flies, like my Grassett Snook Minnow, tied on a 1/0 or 2/0 hook, are another good choice for tarpon that are feeding on glass minnows. Snook, reds and spotted seatrout remain closed to harvest on the west coast of Florida. The Florida FWC has extended a temporary modification of regulations for reds, snook and trout, in the areas affected by the recent red tide. The area extends from Pasco County, south to the south bank of Gordon Pass in Collier County. Reds, snook and trout are catch and release only in that zone until May 31, 2021. Full details including exact boundaries can be found at https://myfwc.com/news/all-news/ extended-cnr-220/. Sarasota Bay is rebounding and the continued closure will make it even better. You should find snook this month around docks and bridges close to passes. They will also start making their move towards shallow flats where you might find them staging along sand bars or in potholes. Surface walking top water plugs or fly popper and Gurglers may draw some big strikes in shallow water early in the day. I often fish lighted docks and bridges for snook before
16
dawn before moving to the flats after daylight. CAL jigs with shad tails and jerk worms, DOA Shrimp or small white flies, like my Grassett Snook Minnow, should all work well.The same lures and flies that work at night will be good for fishing the surf, too. Reds are usually in large schools in September. You may find them in shallow water when the tide is high or along the edges of flats when the tide is low. Look for wakes, some as big as boat wakes, or “pushes” to locate them. If it is calm, a school of reds may look like a nervous patch of water or if there’s a ripple on the surface, the school may appear as a slick patch of water. Once you’ve located them, try to get in front of them and work around the edges of the school to avoid spooking the whole school. DOA PT-7 top water baits, shallow running DOA Baitbusters and CAL 4” shad tails should work well for spin anglers. Fly anglers should score with fly poppers, Gurglers and wide profile baitfish fly patterns. I like to be as quiet as possible in shallow water, using a push pole to move my boat. Electric trolling motors can be used sparingly, but varying the speed or running at faster speeds will often spook a school. It is great to find a big school of reds but remember, if you spook 1 fish you may spook the whole school. Running an outboard may make fish show themselves, but in the long run it will make them harder to catch. I sometimes also find big jacks and blues mixed with schools of big reds in shallow water. Not a bad problem! Trout fishing should also be good this month. Look for big trout in skinny water in many of the same places that you find reds this month. They will be most active in low light, either first thing in the morning or at dusk, particularly if we’ve had an afternoon shower. Cloud cover in the afternoon will also reduce heating of shallow flats, which usually makes fish more active. The same lures and flies that you use for reds will work well for big trout in shallow water You may also find trout mixed with blues, pompano, Spanish mackerel, flounder and more on deep grass flats of Sarasota Bay. I like to drift and cast ahead of my drift with DOA Deadly Combos or CAL jigs with shad tails or jerk worms. Fly anglers should do well with an Ultra Hair Clouser fly fished on a clear intermediate sink tip. In addition to making a series of drifts

West Florida Southwest Coast Black Drum in the 20-60lb range and with some schools featuring 200+ fish it pays to be ready. Often we find giant Black Drum while we are trolling around the mangroves or oyster bars in search of Redfish. It’s quite the sight when you stumble upon a fish of that size in such shallow water. Historically, Black Drum are a nomadic species that can be found roaming from oyster bar to oyster bar in search of their favorite prey, the blue crab. Once a single fish or large school has been located it pays to be patient as these fish scavenge along the bottom for their next meal. Free lining a quartered blue crab on the bottom will get most spin anglers in the game but for those anglers looking for the ultimate challenge try slow stripping a large crab pattern in front of their nose. * Fly Anglers remember if a Black Drum sticks his nose down on your fly and starts flapping his tail he’s going to eat that fly (tic, tic, tic, strips from there).

Southwest Florida to find fish, focus on bait schools, breaking fish or diving birds to find fish.You may find tripletail on buoys, crab trap floats or channel markers in Sarasota Bay this month. A DOA shrimp, CAL jig or a lightly weighted fly with a weed guard should get the job done. You should also find tripletail along with cobia, false albacore (little tunny), king and Spanish mackerel in the coastal gulf this month. Look for surface activity to find the mackerel and albies and cast small white flies or CAL jigs with shad tails to them. I don’t usually target kings but will occasionally catch one around the edges of a feeding frenzy. Look for feeding frenzies that begin with ladyfish feeding in glass minnow schools and may end with everything else, including sharks or tarpon, joining the fray. Remember to “match the hatch” to be successful. You’ll need to add wire to your leader when toothy fish are around. While you are looking for mackerel and albies in the coastal gulf, you can look for tripletail and cobia. However since stone crab traps haven’t hit the water yet this season, there are less places for them to be. In addition to abandoned crab trap floats, check channel markers, buoys and any floating debris. Artificial reefs are another good area to check. A DOA Baitbuster, 4” CAL shad tail or a wide profile fly should be good choices for cobia. Most tarpon flies also work well for cobia. There are lots of options this month, but the key is usually to fish early or late for the best chance at success. An early start for snook or tarpon around lighted docks or bridges and then on to the flats for reds, trout and more is a good plan.There should also be good action in the coastal gulf for a variety of species. I usually tarpon fish as long as I can, wherever I find them! Our natural resources are under constant pressure from red tides fueled by agricultural, industrial and residential runoff and discharges, freezes, increasing fishing pressure and habitat loss and degradation, please limit your kill, don’t kill your limit!

with Captain Tom Van Horn Indian River Lagoon Coast Fishing Forecast, September 2020 September celebrates the beginning of the fall bait migration, primarily silver mullet on Florida’s east coast, with their numbers increasing as we progress into October and November. It is hard to predict precisely when or how strong the mullet run will be, but along with the arrival of the bait, comes the predatory species we love so much. Thus far, the lagoons are loaded with mullet, so its shaping up to be a good run.

Look for snook, tarpon, jack crevalle, sharks, and large kingfish crushing bait pods along the beach. These pods are easily located by watching for fish and birds busting bait. Once you’ve determined the direction of fish travel, usually south, simply set up in front and let them come to you. This is my preferred time of year for targeting snook and tarpon along the beach. The beach snook run started in midAugust with a few fish already showing up, and it will begin to pick up substantially just in time
for the opening of snook season on September 1st. My favorite bait is a live finger mullet or corkers. Fishing the very edge of the surf casting your bait just beyond the white water. Walk slowly along with the direction of tidal flow, so your bait does not wash in with the waves as quickly.The same system will work for tarpon, just cast it out further, and make sure you have adequate tackle and line capacity to handle these mighty fish. Near-shore, good numbers of kingfish will continue to work the beaches, wrecks and reefs. When fishing for kings, slow trolling live pogies on a stinger rig is one of the most productive methods. In-shore on the lagoons, seatrout are still plentiful on the deeper edges of the flats, with the best bite happening at first light or sunset. Look for ladyfish, tarpon, slot size reds, and jack crevalle to be mixed in. Fish with top water plugs for explosive action, or work ¼ ounce DOA CAL jigs with natural colored CAL Tails for the subsurface strike. Near the end of the month,
Central Florida start looking for the pompano and flounder to begin moving out of the lagoon through the inlets and into the near-shore waters along the beach. Also look for the larger redfish to begin to form up just outside the inlets, feeding on baitfish and small crabs carried out by the tide, and for Spanish mackerel and bluefish devouring schools of glass minnows (bay anchovies) in the same areas. September is also the time of year the breeder redfish school up for the spawn in the north IRL and inlet passes of Ponce and Sebastian, so it’s a good time to target these schools. Please remember these are brood stock fish, so if you target them, please handle and release them with extreme care. As always, if you have questions or need more information, please contact me. Good luck and good fishing.

Is It Really the End of Summer?
September and last well into December. Last year it lasted until February. I am really looking forward to a good year as we just purchased a new Penn 80 with a Hooker detachable electric drive. So now we have two of these setups with one for our main line and one for our buoy line. In can’t wait to put a big fish on board with this new reel. It’s been quite a while since we caught one over 400 pounds, so let’s go and see if you are that lucky one.
September usually indicates the beginning of fall but here in South Florida it’s usually just an extension of summer. The way the mahi bite has been the past few weeks, it might as well be the middle of summer. Since mid August, we have seen the best mahi bite of the season. Not only are the fish bigger, but there are way more of them. Typically, our best time for mahis is June and July, but just like the past few years, this year it’s going to be August and September. Everything seems to be shifting to later in the year, just like peak sailfish season is now March-April instead of January -February. Whatever the case may be, we will adapt to it and take advantage of it. There were also a few days last week that a lot of wahoos were caught. Unfortunately, I was not out because wahoo is one of my favorite fish to catch as well as eat. There were two hot areas for wahoo. One was trolling planers on the edge with either spoons, bonito strips or rigged ballyhoo. We use a windon planer soon enough you
get the planer off the mainline and you can continue to wind the fish in without having to hand line the long leader. Makes it much more sporting as well as safer and less pulled hooks. The idea of the planer is to get your bait down deeper in the cooler water and that is where the wahoos are lurking. If you do troll planers, be ready for an onslaught of bonitos and also some kingfish. Yesterday we caught 15 bonitos in less than an hour. That’s a bonito every 4 minutes. The other area for the wahoos was underneath anything of size floating in the Gulfstream. Then you can either troll a planer by the “floater” or drop a jig or live bait down deep. These wahoos are almost always smaller in size but make up for it in numbers. Now that we are in September, mahi fishing should continue to stay very good and we will start to see an increase in the amount of swordfish being caught. We did have a swordfish trip recently, but unfortunately, we didn’t get any sword bites. On the way home though we did catch quite a few nice size mahis. Sword fishing usually will get very good sometime beginning in
On a final note, I know this has been a difficult year for many, but one positive outcome is that people are really starting to enjoy being outdoors. It is a lot safer to be outside in clean ocean air instead of being indoors, but it should not have taken a pandemic for people to realize how beautiful and safe it is to be in the outdoors. Come on board and enjoy a beautiful day outdoors and breathe some clean fresh ocean air! I do it every day and can’t get enough of it! Tight Lines.
