Can you believe it’s October? OCTOBER?!?!? What a wild year it’s been, and what a wild weather week we’ve had. Capt. Kevin gets into with the Unususal Suspects, and they kick around some really good tips so that you can catch something – anything – when Mother Nature’s acting up like this.  Listen in for the forecast, too… Facebook

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers the early-October transition along the Alabama Gulf Coast, with offshore tuna and swordfish, close-in cobia, big triple tail, Spanish mackerel, slot redfish, surf fishing, and changing fall conditions. Butch Thierry is joined by Angelo DePaola, who opens the show with a look at the shifting weather, the challenge of making fishing plans around rough fall forecasts, and why anglers still have to take their windows when they get them. Capt. Cody Broughton checks in from Dauphin Island with an offshore report focused on yellowfin tuna, swordfish, and bottom fishing. Cody explains why late September and October are some of his favorite times to fish, how he's been live-bait chumming for tuna, and why greenbacks, natural presentations, nose-hooked baits, and Seaguar Gold fluorocarbon have helped him get bites. He also breaks down a recent daytime swordfish bite on a buoy rod, how the fish behaved during the fight, and why swordfish can be so unpredictable once they are hooked. Capt. Richard Rutland of Cold Blooded Fishing follows with a detailed cobia and triple tail report built around the tagging work he's been doing with the University of South Alabama. Richard explains how the team is acoustic-tagging cobia and triple tail, collecting fin clips and diet samples, deploying satellite tags, and offering reward tags for recaptured fish. He also shares what he's learned from spending so much time targeting these fish, including why live bait has been critical for cobia, how bait preference can change week to week, and why anglers need to watch both the bottom machine and the surface when fishing ships, buoys, rigs, and other vertical structure. Richard also digs deep into triple tail tactics, including how to cover water, find productive regions, read tide lines, blind-fish poles and buoys, and decide when to slow down. He explains why shrimp worked well earlier, why small pogies have become a better option as spadefish, mangroves, and pinfish crowd the structure, and how to fish slip corks, short leaders, circle hooks, heavier braid, and locked-down drags around big blackfish. He also shares how tide lines with logs, buckets, bait, and other floating debris can produce some of the best and most forgiving triple tail opportunities of the season. To close the episode, David Thornton, The Pier Pounder, reports from Gulf State Park Pier and the surf. David explains that water temperatures have stayed warmer than normal, bait has been inconsistent, and the typical late-September mackerel pattern has been slower than expected. Still, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, slot redfish, speckled trout, flounder, mangrove snapper, whiting, and pompano are all in play when anglers can find bait, clean water, and the right window. The episode wraps with a reminder that fall fishing is close, but the next real push may depend on cooler water, better bait concentrations, and the weather settling down after the coming rain and wind.

In this week's Northwest Florida Fishing Report, host Joe Baya talks with Brandon Barton of Emerald Waters Kayak Charters, Capt. Harris Scruggs of Triple B Fishing Charters, and Capt. Justin Leake of Panama City Inshore about an outstanding early-fall push of blue water, bait, and pelagic fish from Pensacola to Panama City. Sailfish, mahi, blackfin tuna, king mackerel, and even wahoo are showing up close to shore, while red snapper, gag grouper, and triggerfish round out the bottom-fishing opportunities. Brandon breaks down the Pensacola kayak bite, where crystal-clear water and huge concentrations of bait are creating excellent opportunities for sailfish, mahi, kings, and blackfin tuna. He explains how he catches cigar minnows and other live bait on small fluorocarbon Sabiki rigs, why live bait gets the nod when sailfish are around, and the tradeoff between trolling fluorocarbon for better sailfish hookups and wire when kings, Spanish mackerel, and a possible wahoo are in the mix. He also discusses trolling one live bait alongside a deep-diving lure and why sometimes the best answer to triggerfish overwhelming a bottom spot is simply to move. Capt. Harris reports wahoo, blackfin tuna, and sailfish moving closer to Panama City, including wahoo caught in just 85 and 125 feet of water. He explains trolling around 80 to 120 feet over natural bottom and structure, using deep-diving plugs, skirted baits, and a combination of heavy mono and wire leaders. Harris also covers how to set a trolling spread based on speed, sea conditions, prop wash, and lure action, along with why anglers without satellite imagery can start by working around major public structures holding herring, hardtails, and cigar minnows. Capt. Justin explains why Panama City is already showing the signs of a strong October, with exceptional amounts of pilchards, pogies, pinfish, Spanish sardines, threadfin herring, and cigar minnows supporting redfish, trout, mangrove snapper, Spanish mackerel, jacks, mahi, and other pelagics. Mahi have been especially impressive in state waters, with fish holding around buoys and occasionally large floating debris. When fall northeast winds make running-and-gunning difficult, Justin switches to kite fishing, drifting live baits through productive water for sailfish, mahi, kings, and other pelagics. He breaks down drift speed, bait placement, kite spacing, trolling-motor control, and why getting the presentation right can turn a windy fall day into some of the most exciting fishing of the season.

For two days in mid-October, ash fell like snow atop Beijing. All that remained of one of the greatest cultural storehouses in all of human history, put to the torch as an extremely personalized punishment... after everything not nailed down inside it had already been looted off, of course. But the man it was meant to punish... wasn't even there. He'd already slipped out the back door of the Forbidden City weeks before - leaving an opera troupe to play on and cover his escape, as he left his own capital behind to its conquerors for the last time. What was left was a city ready to be conquered, a conqueror who didn't want it at all, and who would negotiate a very favorable credit-extension deal instead... with a computable interest in the survival of the government he'd just humiliated, and in the quiet of the very ports the Taiping had spent all summer marching toward.

This special episode of the Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report brings together Joe Baya, Butch Thierry, Dr. Dylan Kiene, Capt. Tanner Deas, and Capt. Branden Collier for a recap of the "Bama Boys" trip to Panama City Beach. The crew talks through what it is like for Alabama anglers to bring their own boat to the Emerald Coast, learn a different style of bottom fishing, and target gag grouper, red grouper, snapper, triggerfish, and other species on natural bottom instead of the artificial reefs and rigs they are used to fishing closer to home. The conversation starts with bait, where Branden and Butch describe stumbling into a huge cloud of pinfish, white trout, hardtails, and other bait near St. Andrews Pass. That lucky bait stop ended up being a major part of the trip, especially once the crew realized that live pinfish were the ticket for gag grouper. From there, the group digs into what made the Panama City Beach fishery feel so different: closer natural bottom, fewer red snapper compared to Alabama, strong red grouper numbers, lots of triggerfish, spread-out ledges and low-relief structure, and grouper bites that often came only after a long soak. The guys also break down what they learned from fishing rough conditions, losing fish in the rocks, experimenting with 60- and 100-pound leader, using live bait versus slow-pitch jigs, and trying to understand how grouper move across natural bottom. They talk through the value of local knowledge, electronics, public numbers, drifting versus spot-locking, and how one good rock can change the whole day. The trip was not without problems, including trolling motor trouble, engine trouble, a flat tire, a broken rod, and a late-night boat-plug mishap, but the crew still came home with a solid box of fish, a pile of lessons, and a stronger appreciation for safety gear, Sea Tow, VHF radios, and being prepared offshore. The episode closes with Tom Hilton of Hilton's Offshore Charts joining Joe and Butch for a detailed look at the offshore setup in the Northern Gulf. Tom explains how to read chlorophyll, sea surface temperature, altimetry, current edges, and historical satellite shots to understand where blue water, bait, and pelagic fish may be moving. The discussion focuses on the water setting up from the Destin and Alabama side toward the Nipple, 131 Hole, Nakika, Blind Faith, and nearby offshore structure, with practical insight into how anglers can use Hilton's trip-planning tools to make better decisions before burning fuel.

In the woods behind the von Trapp Family Lodge is a tiny stone chapel. The chapel was built more than 75 years ago by Werner von Trapp. He was the second son of Capt. Georg von Trapp and his first wife, Agathe Whitehead. In the movie The Sound of Music, Werner is depicted by the character named Kurt. Bob Stafford is a history buff and is the activities director at the von Trapp Family Lodge and resort. Bob grew up in Stowe and first started working for the resort in 1994. In this episode of Happy Vermont, Bob talks about the von Trapp's escape from Austria, why the family came to Vermont, and Werner's decision to build the stone chapel. www.vontrappresort.com https://happyvermont.com

This week I'm talking to Lesley Mitchell-Clarke about her book 'Intersections: A True Story of Extraterrestrial Contact'.I never thought it would be me. As a college professor, aliens seemed to me a cultural anomaly, but not related to my life. Maybe I could see a UFO one day, that would be fun. But these vivid experiences from the 80s, when everything I thought was challenged by a dream that didn't look like a dream, where haunting me. It was not until two decades later, when I was unable to sleep, terrified of what was waiting for me at night, that I looked for an explanation. I met Lesley Mitchell-Clarke and she introduced me to hypnosis. They had been there, with me, from the beginning. I was an abductee, and I had been experiencing alien visits from my early childhood. They had something to say…BioLesley Mitchell-Clarke, BFA PsyT MH CNLP, is a Toronto based, Board Certified Clinical Master Hypnotherapist/Regressionist who specializes in a number of modalities, including working with individuals who feel that they have had contact experiences with extra-terrestrial/ultra-terrestrial beings. Most of this fascinating work, as well as Metaphysical Therapies such as Past Life and Interlife Regression takes place at Lesley's Toronto hypnosis clinic, LIGHTWORK HYPNOSIS (www.lightworkhypnosis.com). Lesley is a properly vetted and selected MUFON mental health care professional, and regularly works with Experiencers/Contactees who are part of their landmark Experiencer Research Programme, headed up by noted author and researcher Kathleen Marden.

All episodes of this fascinating interview programme (which feature a literal “Who's Who” of UFOlogy, Metaphysics, Cryptology, Ancient Archaeology and more) are available on YouTube (www.youtube.com/contacttv). Her co-host (and the Producer of “CONTACT TV”) is experiencer/contactee, Wes Roberts. Wes and Lesley have just had their first book, INTERSECTIONS: A True Story of Extra-Terrestrial Contact published this spring on The Prometea Press imprint, which is about Wes' transformative experience with hypnosis and his recovered memories of alien encounters.Additionally, Lesley focuses her work on performing artists from all disciplines, and has developed hypnosis protocols for dealing with artists' very specialized issues such as stage fright, creative blocks, memory enhancement, dealing with competition and a variety of other topics. Lesley is a graduate of The University of South Dakota, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree and was a Licensed Psychiatric Technician, working at a number of mental health and addiction treatment facilities in the Los Angeles area. She is also a graduate of The Ontario Hypnosis Centre and School and is a member in good standing of the National Guild of Hypnotists, as well as the National Guild of NLP Practitioners.

In this week's Northwest Florida Fishing Report, host Joe Baya joins Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report host Butch Thierry, Capt. Branden Collier of Capt. Collier's Charters, Capt. Tanner Deas of Dauphin Island Fishing Charters, and Dr. Dylan Kiene, aka Dr. Doormat, to recap a wild Panama City grouper trip that produced gag grouper, red grouper, red snapper, triggerfish, and plenty of lessons about fishing natural bottom. Joe and Butch also talk with Tom Hilton of Hilton's Realtime Navigator about using chlorophyll, sea-surface temperature, current, and altimetry imagery to locate productive offshore water and plan more efficient trips. Branden, Tanner, Dylan, and Butch break down what worked while targeting grouper on low-relief natural bottom around Panama City. Live pinfish were the most dependable bait, especially with aggressive triggerfish quickly destroying softer cigar minnows and dead baits. The group found that patience mattered, with some spots requiring 15 to 30 minutes before the grouper bite developed, and many of the best bites coming with baits laid directly on the bottom with slack line. Heavy 60- to 100-pound leaders still resulted in plenty of break-offs when gags reached holes and ledges. Slow-pitch jigging also produced, with JYG and Johnny Jigs getting bites when live bait became difficult to fish. One of the biggest takeaways was using electronics to find productive zones rather than relying on a single waypoint, then drifting and repeatedly working the surrounding natural bottom. Despite trolling-motor problems, engine trouble, a flat tire, and eventually breaking down offshore, the crew still put together a strong box of fish and emphasized the importance of offshore preparation, a hardwired VHF, and having Sea Tow available. Tom Hilton explains how anglers can use Hilton's Realtime Navigator to build a more complete offshore picture when individual chlorophyll images are limited by cloud cover. Three-day chlorophyll views combine actual satellite shots to fill gaps, while sea-surface temperature imagery can be used alongside chlorophyll and altimetry to identify temperature breaks, color changes, current edges, weed lines, and areas likely to concentrate bait and pelagic fish. Hilton also demonstrates the Trip Planner, which allows anglers to map a route, calculate distance and estimated fuel use, save the trip, and compare the same route across different imagery layers. You can watch the full Hilton's Realtime Navigator segment here to see the imagery and trip-planning tools discussed in the episode. With cleaner water and favorable current features pushing into the northern Gulf, the conditions discussed in this episode show why stacking multiple sources of real offshore data can help anglers spend less time searching and more time fishing.

Capt. Kirk was out on OSR, so Capt. Kevin and Jeff welcomed in Peter Thliveros, the area’s most successful professional bass angler. And in case you’re wondering, “most successful” is no joke – Peter T’s won almost $2 MILLION over the course of his career. With a track record like that, you can guess there’s a lots of bass talk, of course – stories, tips, tricks…you name it, you’ll get it! But it wasn’t ALL bass…there was plenty of surf and offshore fishing talk, too. The show took a serious turn when Capt. Matt Chipperfield called in to talk about a crazy video he filmed in Guana Watershed. The situation there is distastrous; the water is poisoned by bacteria, pollutants and now deadly algae blooms. The fish kill covers several species – it’s catastrophic. The worst part: all of it could have been prevented.  Capt. Matt shared the details, and how we can all get involved to save Guana. It was a wild episode, complete with a surprise call-in from Josh Scobee, stories of turkey gangs, attack ostriches, the Tale of the Bathtub Bass, and there was even a pet goat sighting!

In 1699, eighteen years after La Salle had demonstrated the connection of the Mississippi with the Gulf of Mexico, by passing out at its mouth, Iberville succeeded in entering it from the Gulf. Ascending as far as the junction of Red River, he returned, and proceeded, by way of the Gulf, into Lake Pontchartrain. He formed a settlement and erected a fort, at Biloxi, which he left under the command of his brother Bienville, while he returned to France, to induce others to join the colony. Soon after he left, the new commander ascended the Mississippi as far as the present site of New Orleans. In returning, he met a British vessel of sixteen guns, under the command of Capt. Bard, who enquired the bearings of the great river, intimating that it was his intention to establish a colony upon its banks. Bienville, in reply, directed him to go farther west, and thus induced him to turn about; from which circumstance, the place of their meeting was called “The English Turn,” a name which it retains to this day.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers the late-summer transition along the Alabama Gulf Coast, from improving surf conditions and flounder on the beach to light-tackle billfishing, snook, tuna, amberjack, and bluewater live-bait tactics. Butch Thierry opens the show with Tony Emmons of South Alabama Surf Fishing, who reports cleaner water, more manageable mornings, improving beach action, and a growing mix of surf species as fall gets closer. Tony breaks down how he's targeting flounder from the beach with quarter-ounce jig heads, tandem rigs, new penny plastics, and long casts around the second sandbar, troughs, and points. He also talks through the return of pompano, whiting, black drum, redfish, bluefish, and other surf species, including when to fish close, when to fish behind the bar, how to read troughs and sandbar edges, and why fresh shrimp, Fishbites, small pyramid weights, and moving water can all matter. Chris Vecsey of J&M Tackle follows with an Orange Beach report covering light-tackle billfishing, gag grouper interest, blackfin tuna, mahi, wahoo, trout, redfish, snook, and inshore topwater fishing. Chris explains how he's using teasers, squid chains, dredges, pitch baits, and a light-hook spread for sailfish and other billfish, then shifts inshore to talk about snook tagging, larger snook sightings, high-current trout lights, topwaters, wake baits, grass lines, LY schools, and why bait movement is one of the biggest keys right now. Capt. King Marchand of Capt. Mike's Fishing closes the fishing reports with a deep offshore update from the Lady Ann, including a 209-pound yellowfin tuna, more quality tuna, live chumming, crazy fish, circle hooks, fluorocarbon leader, braid, FG knots, drag management, amberjack, snapper, and whale shark fishing. King explains how he finds catchable tuna in the water column, why bigger yellowfin may need more live chum to fire up, how leader size and bait behavior change the bite, and why live bait remains so important for both tuna and amberjack. The episode also includes a sponsor spotlight with Ultra Wash Mobile, covering drone washing, soft washing, Gulf Coast salt and mildew, commercial property cleaning, and how waterfront homes, condos, marinas, and businesses can better protect their exterior surfaces.

In this week's Northwest Florida Fishing Report, host Joe Baya covers a strong transition into fall fishing from Pensacola to Destin, with redfish, trout, flounder, and mangrove snapper producing inshore while gag grouper, amberjack, red snapper, and other reef species give offshore anglers plenty of options. This episode features Capt. Tyler Massey with Hot Spots Charters and Capt. Adam Schroeder with Ignite The Bite Charters. Joe also joins Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report host Butch Thierry for a special conversation with Capt. King Marchand of Captain Mike's Fishing about a tremendous yellowfin tuna bite, including a 209-pound fish, and the live-chumming tactics being used to consistently draw big tuna to the surface. Capt. Tyler Massey reports that Pensacola anglers have good options both inside the bay and offshore. Inshore, redfish have been the standout, with slot fish and some oversized reds holding around bridges, jetties, the pass, and other structure. Tyler says the bridge bite can be extremely tide dependent, with schools remaining around the structure but sometimes feeding aggressively for only a short window. Live scaled sardines, shrimp, and croakers have been producing, and Tyler prefers freelining larger croakers for trout, hooking them near the tail to improve casting distance and allowing an active bait to swim naturally. Mangrove snapper are also holding around bridges, residential docks, and jetties. Offshore, Tyler has been concentrating on deeper natural hard-bottom areas where gag grouper, scamp, red snapper, and amberjack can all be encountered. His best gag bite has been roughly 250 to 290 feet, with many fish running 20 pounds or better, and butterflied Boston mackerel, white snapper, red porgies, and small bonito all making effective baits. King mackerel are beginning to appear around deeper live bottom as well, and Tyler expects cooler water and an eastward push of cleaner water and bait to improve the fall pelagic bite. Joe and Butch talk with Capt. King Marchand of Captain Mike's Fishing about an outstanding run of Gulf yellowfin tuna, including a 209-pound fish and another around 169 pounds. King says many of their biggest tuna in recent years have come on live bait, with small circle hooks helping keep fish hooked securely in the corner of the mouth. His current approach involves marking tuna around offshore rigs, putting out large numbers of live chum baits to fire up bigger fish, and then presenting a hooked bait naturally within the school. King explains that tuna marked above roughly 180 feet are generally much more catchable than fish holding deep in the water column, and he may leave a rig and return later when those deeper fish rise to feed. Joe also references this video showing a deep-water chumming technique that could potentially be adapted to deliver chum directly to tuna holding deeper in the water column. King typically starts with 80-pound fluorocarbon but may scale down as light as 40 pounds when current or fishing pressure makes the presentation difficult. His live-bait setups use Shimano Talica 25 reels with 65- to 80-pound braid, long fluorocarbon leaders connected with an FG knot, and relatively light drag early in the fight before gradually increasing pressure once the tuna settles into its circles beneath the boat. Amberjack fishing has also been strong, although King says having the right size live bait can make a major difference when trying to avoid smaller fish. Capt. Adam Schroeder says the Destin-area inshore bite may be as good as it has been all year, while the offshore bite is producing a wide variety of reef fish. Offshore, Adam has been specifically targeting gag grouper with medium pinfish and butterflied ruby red lips, noting that the butterfly presentation helps target grouper while reducing interference from amberjack. He fishes those baits directly on the bottom with heavy tackle, a Carolina rig, roughly six to eight ounces of lead, and a five- to six-foot leader, stressing that anglers need to be ready to immediately move a gag away from structure after the strike. Amberjack, red snapper, vermilion snapper, and triggerfish are also being caught consistently, with whole live baits often preferred when specifically targeting jacks. Inshore, plentiful bait has helped produce redfish, mangrove snapper, flounder, and trout around bridges, jetties, and deeper docks. Adam uses small Carolina rigs and lighter fluorocarbon for mangroves, while bull redfish around the bridges require much heavier spinning tackle, 65- to 80-pound braid, 40- to 60-pound leaders, and larger live croakers or spot minnows. The outgoing tide has been especially productive for bull reds, and Adam expects that bite to become even more consistent as the fall pattern develops.

This special episode of the Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report looks back at some of the best conversations and most useful fishing intel from the summer season along the Alabama Gulf Coast. With Butch Thierry out this week, the show pulls together highlights from recent reports covering inshore, nearshore, offshore, and surf fishing, with practical tactics from captains and contributors who have been on the water through heat, dirty water, changing tides, and late-summer transitions. The episode covers a strong mangrove snapper bite around Orange Beach structure, docks, rocks, bridges, jetties, and deeper current, including bait selection, Carolina rigs, circle hooks, reef endorsements, and why croakers, spots, LYs, and small pogies can outproduce shrimp when pinfish are thick. It also revisits tarpon movement, tide-line and triple tail fishing, how to read color changes and offshore satellite imagery, and what anglers should look for when structure, current, bait, and clean water line up. The show also includes offshore and reef-fishing highlights, with reports on swordfish, squid and octopus baits, bait rigging, full-moon swordfish action, late-season beeliners, triggerfish, mahi, reef scouting, diving, thermoclines, oxygen changes, and how experienced captains use bottom type, bait presence, visibility, and fish quality to decide where to spend their time. Inshore and onshore segments round out the episode with eastern shore pier fishing, Fairhope Rattles, popping corks, live shrimp, flounder around pilings, Gulf Coast surf trout, pompano, redfish, beach troughs, fly fishing, and why small changes in current, bait, and structure can concentrate fish in surprisingly tight areas. The episode closes with one of the summer's best offshore stories: Capt. Myles Colley's account of a giant blue marlin caught years ago between the Nipple and the Elbow. It is a fitting end to a summer recap built around the kind of details, stories, and hard-earned fishing lessons that make the Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report valuable week after week.

John Ward of Sea Tow Destin about the true cost of getting towed, what towing memberships actually cover, the difference between towing and salvage, and simple steps boaters can take to avoid becoming stranded. Capt. Harris Scruggs reports excellent bait concentrations around Panama City, with herring, cigar minnows, and hardtails giving offshore anglers plenty of options while several popular bottom-fishing seasons overlap. Harris likes to target amberjack early on larger wrecks before transitioning into general bottom fishing for gag grouper, red snapper, triggerfish, vermilion snapper, and other reef species. For amberjack on pressured public wrecks, he recommends long leaders of roughly 15 to 20 feet with around 80-pound mono and a hook matched to the size of the bait. Gag grouper are being caught from shallower state-water structure out to roughly 120 to 300 feet, although the better catches have generally been coming from deeper water. Harris fishes a three-way setup with a bank sinker as well as knocker rigs, adjusting leader strength from roughly 40 to 100 pounds depending on bait size and the fish he expects to encounter. Triggerfish have been somewhat inconsistent, but around 150 feet has been a productive depth for larger fish. He also expects September's large bait concentrations to pull more sailfish, blackfin tuna, king mackerel, and other pelagics close to shore as water temperatures begin to fall. Joe and Butch talk with Capt. John Ward of Sea Tow Destin about what boaters should understand before they ever need assistance on the water. John explains that non-member towing costs are based on the total time required from when the towboat leaves until it returns, not simply the distance the disabled boat is actually towed. At Sea Tow Destin, he says daytime service for non-members is $400 per hour with a two-hour minimum, meaning even a relatively simple battery jump or short tow can become expensive. The conversation covers priority service for Sea Tow members, long-distance offshore towing, insurance towing limits, and the important distinction between a routine tow and a salvage situation involving a vessel in peril. John also shares some of the most common reasons boaters call for help, including running out of fuel, electronic steering failures, blown fuses, and simple launch-day mistakes. His preventative advice includes carrying spare fuses, making sure inspection plates are secured before leaving the dock, putting enough fuel in the boat rather than relying completely on the gauge, and checking basics such as the neutral position and kill switch before assuming there is a major mechanical problem. Brandon Barton says September is one of his favorite months for kayak fishing because enormous schools of bait can bring sailfish, mahi, blackfin tuna, and king mackerel within a mile of Northwest Florida's beaches. Brandon calls it "September sails" because of the consistent nearshore sailfish opportunity and says recent trips have been loaded with cigar minnows, sardines, and other bait. His approach is to catch live bait with a Sabiki rig and troll one live bait alongside an X-Rap or similar diving lure, using deeper-running plugs on bright, calm days and shallower presentations during low-light, overcast, or choppy conditions. Mahi have already been showing consistently, with blackfin tuna and sailfish also being hooked in the region. Around nearshore reefs, Brandon is finding red snapper, mangrove snapper, amberjack, and gag grouper, and recommends larger live baits dropped close to structure when specifically targeting gags. From a kayak, he generally starts around 50-pound tackle and prefers three- to four-foot leaders and shorter jigging-style rods that allow anglers to quickly pump powerful fish away from structure. Brandon closes with an important safety reminder: watch wind direction and changing conditions, continually check radar, wear a PFD, leave a float plan, carry a reliable means of communication, and do not push offshore when the forecast looks questionable.

   Retired Navy Captain Gerard Cox, MD, built a forty-year career out of a four-year commitment. He signed with the Navy's Health Professions Scholarship Program because his parents had already stretched to pay for an expensive undergraduate education, intending to serve his obligation and return to New England as a general internist. Three months into a medicine internship at Bethesda he knew that path was wrong. A flight surgeon tour with Marine squadrons out of Cherry Point gave him time to mature as a physician and to find emergency medicine, then a new and contested specialty. By the eleven-year mark the Navy had him, and he finished at thirty.    What followed is a tour of the places where military medicine meets national consequence. From 1999 to 2001 he served in the White House Medical Unit as a physician to Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, spending most of his first year on the campaign trail with Vice President Al Gore. He explains what protective medical support actually requires: a physician with a black medical bag within seconds of the president at all times, monitoring the same Secret Service frequency, positioned on the far side of the armored limousine. That doctrine was written directly out of the 1981 Hinckley shooting, when the White House physician was left behind at the scene and never got into the car.    A decade later, he was Force Surgeon for U.S. Naval Forces Central Command and Fleet Surgeon for the U.S. Fifth Fleet, administratively responsible for Navy medical personnel across Afghanistan, Kuwait, and every ship in the area of responsibility. The lesson he carries from that tour and from Desert Shield and Desert Storm is the same: international agreements and host-nation relationships are what allow the United States to operate medically in that theater at all.    He then spent nearly eleven years in senior Veterans Health Administration leadership, walking into the Office of the Medical Inspector three months after the 2014 access-to-care scandal broke, and later serving as Assistant Under Secretary for Health for Quality and Patient Safety and national co-lead of the VA high reliability organization rollout across more than 170 medical centers. His verdict on the word accountability is blunt. It was redefined to mean punishment, and you cannot fire your way to excellence.    The episode closes on advice a Navy admiral gave him in 1997 and on the fifteen-minute walk he and his wife have taken nearly every evening since, the habit that kept a forty-year career and a marriage intact. Chapters (01:11-08:39) An Accidental Navy Career (08:40-16:41) Inside the White House Medical Unit (16:42-24:26) Fifth Fleet, CENTCOM, and the Move from Clinician to Commander (24:27-37:01) Rebuilding Trust at VA: Accountability and High Reliability (37:02-43:24) Bridging the Military Health System and the VA (43:25-52:54) The Fifteen-Minute Walk: Resilience and Legacy Chapter Summaries (01:11-08:39) An Accidental Navy Career Dr. Cox traces the decision points that turned a four-year scholarship obligation into thirty years of active duty: an HPSP flyer on a Dartmouth bulletin board, an internal medicine internship he abandoned within months, and a flight surgeon tour with Marine squadrons at Cherry Point. That tour let him practice as the sole medical expert for a deployed squadron and pointed him toward the new specialty of emergency medicine. (08:40-16:41) Inside the White House Medical Unit As physician to Presidents Clinton and George W. Bush, Dr. Cox describes protective medical support as a discipline of seconds and positioning, not of clinical complexity. He walks through the Hinckley shooting that shaped the doctrine, the advance planning that precedes a foreign trip, and the accelerated 2000 transition between administrations. (16:42-24:26) Fifth Fleet, CENTCOM, and the Move from Clinician to Commander Dual-hatted as Force Surgeon for NAVCENT and Fleet Surgeon for Fifth Fleet, CAPT (Ret) Cox was responsible for Navy medical personnel from the NATO Role 3 hospital in Kandahar to individual augmentees with Afghan units and every ship in theater. He then turns to the leap into command, where a physician stops being the team leader and becomes the leader of a team of leaders. (24:27-37:01) Rebuilding Trust at VA: Accountability and High Reliability Three months into his VA tenure, the 2014 access-to-care scandal forced out the Secretary, the Under Secretary for Health, and the Medical Inspector. Dr.Cox took the Medical Inspector role and rebuilt its investigative culture on a single rule: every whistleblower allegation has an equal chance of being true or not true. He then describes the six-year high reliability rollout and the just culture that has to underpin it. (37:02-43:24) Bridging the Military Health System and the VA Dr. Cox explains why enrollment in VA health care is still opt-in rather than automatic, and what the failed Ensuring Veterans Transition Act would have changed. He contrasts the two patient populations and argues for moving providers and patients across both systems to preserve clinical currency and use existing VA capacity. (43:25-52:54) The Fifteen-Minute Walk: Resilience and Legacy A Navy admiral told him in 1997 to turn off the computer and go home, because the work will still be there in the morning. Dr. Cox and his wife have walked the dog together for fifteen minutes nearly every evening for more than fifteen years. He closes on what he wants remembered: integrity, treating people as people, and keeping the patient at the center of every decision. Take Home Messages Protective medical support is a discipline of seconds, not of clinical complexity. Caring for a president is less about the medicine than about position, communication, and rehearsal — a physician within seconds of the principal at all times, on the same radio frequency as the protective detail, staged on the side of the vehicle away from the threat. Every one of those procedures exists because a real failure in 1981 exposed the gap. Contingency planning is what converts a bad day into a survivable one. Accountability was redefined as punishment, and the substitution did real damage. In its original meaning, accountability is an objective, independent process for determining what actually happened. Congressional pressure turned it into a body count of terminations. You cannot fire your way to excellence, and a system that tries will lose the trust it needs to surface problems early. A just culture balances system responsibility against individual responsibility. People do not set out to make mistakes, and roughly 99.9 percent of the time they do not intend to harm anyone. Human error is inevitable, so the work is building systems that stop those errors before they reach the patient. Leaders and the system they run carry as much responsibility for prevention as the individual who erred. Command turns you from the team leader into the leader of a team of leaders. A clinician promoted into command arrives fluent in credentialing and clinical operations and largely ignorant of logistics, pharmacy, laboratory, and facilities management. The response is humility and questions, not bluff. Show up in the radiology suite on a Saturday morning and talk to the technician on duty, because the risks are visible at the front line and invisible in the C-suite. Protect fifteen minutes a day and the rest of the career becomes survivable. The work will still be there in the morning, so turn off the computer, go home, and have dinner with your family. One couple made a pledge at command leadership school to walk the dog together every evening, and more than fifteen years later they still do it. Careers can be slowed by choices made in favor of family; legacies are not.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report is a roundtable episode with Capt. Patric Garmeson, Capt. Tanner Deas-Dauphin Island Fishing, Capt. Branden Collier - Capt. Collier's Charters , and Dr. Dylan Kiene talking tournament fishing, flounder patterns, redfish, trout, live bait, artificial lures, and the decisions that make or break a two-day inshore event. The conversation centers around the Saltwater Fanatics Inshore Championship, where different teams found success in completely different ways, from shallow-water flounder and dock-light redfish to deep ledges, heavy current, and pattern fishing across multiple systems. Tanner and Branden break down their winning inshore slam strategy, including how they targeted redfish early, adjusted when the first plan did not feel right, found a 21-inch trout in an unexpected place, and finally landed the 22-inch flounder that helped put them over the top. Patric shares a wild tournament story involving boat trouble, a lost Yamaha screw, trolling-motor improvisation, a lead sinker turned into a temporary repair, and finally salvaging the weekend with shallow flounder, trout, and a redfish. Dylan adds the science-minded flounder perspective, explaining how he and his team abandoned their original plan, found deeper flounder patterns, caught fish on Coastal Brew and Down South plastics, and brought in a strong live-flounder total for the CCA hatchery effort. The roundtable also digs into the details that serious inshore anglers think about during tournament season: when to leave fish, how to recognize a real pattern, why small flounder and big flounder may not always feed the same way, how live bait compares to artificials in deep water, when slip corks make sense for flounder and trout, and why jig-head weight, scent, current, boat positioning, and nighttime dock-light fishing can all matter. The episode wraps with a look ahead to the Doormat Classic and the fall flounder season, including Dylan's thoughts on why wet years may pull more big offshore-spawned flounder back into the bay systems.

Everybody keeps asking me about red snapper — why they're everywhere and you can't keep them in one place, and nowhere to be found in another. So I brought on someone who lives on both sides of that fight. Dylan Hubbard is VP of Hubbard's Marina in Madeira Beach — a fourth-generation, nearly 100-year-old operation — and he's also president of the Florida Guides Association, VP of the Charter Fisherman's Association, and chair of the Gulf Council Reef Fish Advisory Panel. He's one of the only guests we've had who's both a working charter operator and deeply embedded in the federal fisheries decision-making process. That combination makes this one of the clearest breakdowns of what's really happening with our fishery that I've heard. In this conversation we get into: Why red snapper is a Gulf success story but a crisis in the South Atlantic — and how discard mortality quietly shrinks the season every year The EFP fight, the 11th-hour injunction, and MRIP vs. state (SRFS) data — why "letting them guess" hurts anglers How his grandfather's handwritten notes from a 1988 meeting let Dylan change federal law in two meetings to save his 39-hour trips The gag grouper rebound, the lag between what we see on the water and what the science says, and where AI is starting to change fisheries research Getting fired by his own dad — and reopening the marina five days after Hurricane Helene "If you're not in the room, you're on the menu." If you care about the future of the fishery, this is the one to watch. Connect with Dylan & Hubbard's Marina:
