Fishing action has really heated up during the last couple of weeks.
I have shifted to only fishing mornings as it has just been
uncomfortably warm in the afternoon and the action seems to slow down
mid-day.
My anglers have been enjoying some great action with plenty of large
sea trout ranging to 25 inches. I have been targeting them in deep
channels close to the gulf using live baits fished near the bottom as
well as jigs.
Snook fishing has been as good as it gets! This is catch and release
fishing as the season is closed for the summer, but the abundance of
fish are providing my anglers with fantastic action using live sardines
and soft plastic swim baits. Many half day trips have been releasing
over 50 snook ranging from 22-33 inches. We have had some hookups with
giant fish over 40 inches as well, only to get beat in the cover while
using light tackle.
Anglers have been encountering some nice redfish often showing up in
the same areas where the snook are congregating. While not schooled up,
the reds we have been catching have all been nice fish ranging from 25
to over 30 inches.
Now is the time to catch big sharks in the back bays. Large bull,
lemon and blacktip sharks are easy targets right now for anglers wanting
a battle with a powerful fish. Sharks we encounter run from 5 to 8
feet in length.
