Back to Fishing Headwaters
I finally got back to fishing at Headwaters this past week. Water temperatures are starting out around the mid 70’s and the water was clean in all the spots we hit. No blockages on the main canals to run.

I finally got back to fishing at Headwaters this past week. Water temperatures are starting out around the mid 70’s and the water was clean in all the spots we hit. No blockages on the main canals to run.
Had the pleasure of going on the Lagoon with one of my ex-clients and also the pleasure of having Captain Glyn Austin on board as well. Our morning was rudely interrupted by a massive acre size of large Jack crevalle erupting in the water.
I’ve had enough Honey Doing around my house lately. I gave up the heat for my fishing habit for the month of September and spent this past week cleaning up after the hurricane.
It’s been a rough two weeks for me lately. It started out the morning I met up with my friend John at Headwaters as our usual outing together. After prepping the boat loading my gear into it, I hopped back into my truck to move to a parking spot when I noticed my check engine light was on.
Three days on the water last week targeting different areas. My first trip was on the lagoon. Started off getting rained on very early. I made a short trip to my first spot to run from it for a few minutes.
Headwaters opened back up and the bite is still about the same as last reported. The best bite has been the first hour of daylight and lasts if you’re lucky for an hour.
I’ve been feeling a little sluggish lately with the heat we have been experiencing and my fishing has taken a small break. I did manage to make it out to 3 Forks with my friend whom I was out with a week earlier and we spun his prop.
With the afternoon rains in our area it has kept the waters from hitting the 90 degree marks. Still it’s been an early start and an early finish whether fishing the freshwater or saltwater waters.
Last week’s outings were a better catching time for me. We spent our first outing at 3 Forks. Our intentions were to head south but that didn’t work for us as we came very close to the end of the narrow trail that you must take in a boat to a disappointing stop.
Last week was just down right HOT! The air temperatures were hot but the bite was extremely so-so to say the least.
