Despite the Cold Weather Despite the weather being alittle chilly on some days the fishing has been pretty good. We have been getting some really nice redfish and speckled trout. On the days the weather was not freezing and we were able to get on the water the fish were willing to bite. Getting live shrimp has been challangingdue to the water temps, but mud minnows have worked just fine. Using the floating cork over structure has worked well. Also have been using a 1/4 ounce jighead on the bottom aslo produced.

As February rolls in, the warming trend is beginning to take effect in Jacksonville, pushing water temperatures up and signaling transitions in fish behavior. With air temperatures creeping into the low 80s°F, anglers should expect an uptick in activity across inshore, nearshore, and offshore waters. Inshore Fishing Redfish – Sight fishing for redfish remains strong, especially on the flood tides in the grass and during the low tide around mud flats. With the water clearing up due to cooler temperatures, a stealthy approach and finesse presentations (like soft plastics or live shrimp) are key. As the water warms, expect more redfish moving toward deeper structure and docks.

Black Sea Bass have moved in to the closer nearshore ledges and reefs. All of this fishing is done inside of 25mi so no need to stay all day as the 6hr trip is perfect. They're very delicious to eat and you'll have plenty of bycatch between gag groupers, red snappers, triggerfish and other bottom dwellers.

Speckled Trout and Redfish have been really good over the last few weeks. The drop in water temperature has turned them on. Live shrimp under float rigs and artificials are both effective.
