While the weather is cooling down, the fishing is heating up. Speckled trout fishing is really good with lots of slot fish being caught on float rigs and artificial. Sheepshead have been good but small. Better fish being caught over the last week. Sharks are a problem taking quite a few fish during the fight. Some reds being caught, many undersized and others too big. The temperature change should fire everything up. Let's go fishing!

Flounder fishing has been up and down with some good fish being caught on some days and them being hard to find on others. The mullet run has started to die off so the preferred Flounder bait, finger mullet, have become a challenge to get Fall back has been speckled trout with some really nice fish caught last weekend. Artificial, particularly soft plastics, have been producing uup against the grass lines on high tides. Sheepshead ought to start showing soon. Bull red season has arrived with bruisers in the 30 to 40 inch class being caught. Been a weird year for tarpon. Primary bait, pogies, have been spotty so beach fishing has been difficult. Some hsve been caught around the Mayport jetties and even up the St.Johns River in downtown Jacksonville. Offshore has been tough due to the winds. But those lucky enough to have snapper lottery permits have - surprise!- excellent catches. Just had Hurricane Helene pass to our west so hopefully things will settle down quickly and we see what's chewing!

Fishing Report for September 2024 Despite all the rain we had here in Florida the fishing has beeen great. The bull redfish have been on a pretty good feeding frenzy. The action has been good at the jetty and in the Amelia river system. The larger mullet have been found in good numbers, which is has been the bait of choice. The setup has been a 7 foot rod and a 6500 Penn reel or a 6000 Florida Fishing Products reel loaded with 65 lb Fins braid. A 4 foot 60 lb leader with a 7/0 Kahle hook. Cut the mullet in chunks and we are fishing in 18 to 30 feet of water. The speckled trout are also hitting good. If you can find the finger mullet it has been doing well or live shrimp on a cork setup has worked well. We are also getting some nice flounder on our trips.

Bottom fishing continues to be good when the weather lets us get out. It looks like the kingfish may be gone now in our waters.

    Austin was fantastic! We had a great trip and caught them up. He was so good with my son and taught him some great tricks to help catch the big ones.

    Trip: 3/4 day Adventure 6hrs

  • ★★★★★
    Such a great experience! The captain had a great attitude and was really fun. The weather was a little off and very windy, but he still made everything fun. I appreciated his knowledge of the waterways and taking us through some different parts of the inshore areas. It was fun to see the shoreline from the water and we even hooked a few fish despite the weather. The whole group had a fantastic experience and I will be booking with Captain Bill again!

    Trip: Full Day Adventure 8hrs

    Our family had a great time with Captain Scott! His first mate Jimmy was so enthusiastic and really wanted to help us all catch big fish. My young adult kids rated the experience an 11 out of 10. Overall we caught 4 King Mackerals (and a few sharks that we threw back). Scott recommended a local restaurant (The Salty Pelican) that would prepare our catch, so we enjoyed a delicious lunch after our morning on the boat.
