Hello all and WELCOME TO SUMMER TIME!

It has been a wonderful month here on the Island with Chubby's Tropical Adventures. We have been busy. If this is an indicator, the month of July should be very busy. Chubby showed up all over the place as we traveled around the islands enjoying the sunny days here in Southwest Florida.

If you have not spent time here please come and visit us. We are in our typical weather pattern where the mornings are beautiful and calm, the afternoon rains and storms roll through and then the night gives way to beautiful sunsets.

The fishing is beginning to pick up some, after Andrea came through it seemed to have slowed down the bite some. We have been catching plenty of sharks, including black tip, bonnet head and even some bulls, and of course the catfish and lady fish are out in number. Mangrove snapper, redfish and some nice snook are out there feeding on live shrimp and cut bait too. They say snook season will open again on September 1 so we are anxiously awaiting the season. We even caught a few pompano in the bay this past week so things are looking up for a good summer catch.

The sunsets have been awesome against the summer clouds which seem to explode in color as the sun goes down across the Gulf. As always the afternoon is iffy weather wise with the storms developing but they are short lived. Mornings are excellent for trips and most evenings for sunset. We can book and watch the weather regardless and most of the time get the trip in. We are blessed here on the island to have he weather "skirt" us most of the time.

Enjoy the pics from Chubby's and come to see us for boating adventures in the islands!
