Reported: 4 months ago

Winter fishing continues to be strong. The slot redfish continue to be active and the sheepshead bite has picked up. While the total fish counts are less than summer, the caught fish are larger and frequently keeper size.

Fishing has been pretty good for big trout not a lot of fish but large ones - last 6 trips we have released 16 speckled trout between 20-28.5" . A few flounder here and there and the redfish have been hit and miss.

My second trip with Bill and he put us right on the fish both times! He is a great captain and very knowledgeable of where the fish are and how to get them!

Trip: 5 Hour Bottom Fishing & Trolling
★★★★★
My wife and I went out with Captain Bobby for a four-hour inshore fishing trip yesterday. We caught 5 or 7 keepers (Spanish Mackerel, a Pompano and a Blue Runner). However, the best part of our outing with Captain Bobby was being out on the water with a courteous, attentive and pleasantly conversational guide. My wife and I recommend Captain Bobby to anyone that interested in the "whole adventure" to choose Captain Bobby for their fishing outing.

The wind was a pain for him to deal with. He still got us out fishing and did a great job. He knew what and where to go to get us on fish. He did a great job and I recommended him to my friends that went out with him the next day.

Captain Bobby was awesome!! We had some troubles dealing with the rip current but he was dedicated to getting us some dinner. His knowledge of the area is fantastic and his patience and enjoyment of watching my daughter catch a fish was amazing. He taught her and us alot!!
