    This 6 hour fishing charter was on the tail end of a cold front. With that we had some wind and some bigger than normal seas but this crew toughed it out! There main focus was to keep what they caught so we targeted vermilion snapper and trigger fish that were in season. We also caught some red snapper that went back. All in all I good day with some great people!

    Move over leprechauns, I’m leading anglers to the pot of gold, well silver that is. Snook and tarpon! March has offered great weather and fishing. Green mangroves offer plenty of action for snook, ambushing waiting in the shadows, linesiders are striking Rapala twitch baits and live baits. Low light hours offer great surface strikes and night fishing offers great sight fishing, using flies and Rapala twitch baits. Silver kings continue shine, schooling fish are present around shorelines and channels. Live baits and DOA Terror Eyz great baits to get the drag screaming. Juvenile tarpon are abundant around dock lights making for excellent sight fishing and acrobatic hook ups. Those looking for slow pace fishing rock piles are holding an abundance of species, snapper, jacks, drum, barracuda and many others. Live baits, shrimp and jigs will get the rod bent.

    What's going on anglers! The beginning of March Beach bite has been relatively slow, we're mostly picking away at smaller whiting and more fish like jacks and ladyfish out of the surf. This is a promising sign of spring bait showing up as we transition into the spring weather pattern. Daylight savings will change the fish activity minutely, which helps us target fish from the surf earlier and later in the day. With our conditions lately I have been staying busy fishing the river with mullet, in spring the fish that went deep out into the ICW or Ocean return to their tributaries to rest and spawn. Tarpon and snook will be moving into the rivers and will become a prominent target from land. Here is a slot snook & tarpon both caught on live mullet 2/0 circle hook and 30# leader. Tight lines!

    Spring fling is in the air! Warm weather and plenty of sunshine has anglers flinging baits and hooking up! Tarpon fishing has been spectacular the past week. Bowing to the king never gets old and anglers have had great success fly fishing using live baits and DOA Terror Eyz. The tarpon are in schools near channels and mangrove shorelines, sight casting the tarpon not uncommon during outings. Snook are on the tear, striking live baits, flies and DOA C.A.L. 3” shad tail. Structures, shorelines and channels have been teaming with snook. Snook are active all through the day as well as night. Multiple species of snook add to the excitement for anglers. For those who like to target other species, jacks are always up for the fight. Providing extreme drag screaming runs, jacks will devour live baits and Rapala skitter walks. Well that is the report for the past week hope you all enjoyed. Remember you can’t catch them from the couch, so get out there and get hooked up. Tight Lines!

    We are still having great catches of bass and crappie here on west lake Toho. Wild shiners are still catching the biggest and most numbers, but a senko or a chatterbait can also produce some nice catches

    Well spring is working it's way here. The weather is warming up and the fishing is heating up with it. Inshore the sheepshead bite is still pretty hot on the jetties and bridge pilings. Drop a shrimp or a fiddler on a jig and hold on. Nearshore Bonita schools are boiling the waters already. Look for birds working and throw a gotcha plug into the water and hold on for a great fight. If targeting triggerfish and snapper, they are already schooled up on any bottom structure you can find. Drop a chicken rig with some cut squid, cigar minnow, or any other cut bait and you should get bit pretty quick. With the red tide affecting our southern waters, Pensacola may be a place to go. So far we have had not been impacted and our fishery is solid and looking good for the season.
