Recent fishing reports.
Hogfish bite remains great offshore, along with mangrove snapper and occasional gag grouper (still fun to catch although they're out of season.)
redfish are piling up on inshore islands, mangroves and oyster beds. Some trout around as well, and any day the mackerel and kingfish will be showing up in numbers off the beach. Best time of the year is right now!

During those times are focused was more on what we could target and provide our best. Captain's experiences catching bull sharks around local power plants was very reliable, and the reef bite for snapper and Sheepshead has been on fire. We've been considerate of these fish during their spawn only taking a couple fish makes for a brighter fishery in the future
So let's get out there and get your trips booked with Captain's experiences, your catches are waiting.

Tampa bay waters are warming up and already we're seeing a good number of Sheepshead, Blackdrum, Southern Ray's showing up on the Saltwatwr flats. On the Freshwater side the Spotted Gar are still showing themselves with a mixed batch of Tilapia and other mix. Look for for the shallow banks with the most sun exposure when transitioning into your night bowfishing action also look for down trees branches or any type of structure that fish can hide that's where you are find your Ambush predators
