Flounder were good before the storm nearshore . We will see what this storm has done. Alot of sewage got dumped and wastewater full of high levels of nitrogen. Sality levels have dropped inshore. Water is dirty . I won't know what's really happening until I fish tomorrow. Been prepping for a hurricane for the last week. Just got the boats serviced and back on the lift.

Shark fishing has been hot. Snook and redfish are eating live and cut bait. Trout have been eating live and artificial baits. There's been some mackerel activity on spoons and live bait. The mangrove snapper bite has been good on live sardines

Redfish, sheepshead, trout are on fire inshore, snook are still in the creeks. Red grouper are abundant when you can get out with the crazy winds we've been having!

This month has been great for the near shore(inside 9 miles) fishing. There has been plenty of action with Mangrove Snapper,Grunt,Triggerfish and the occasional hog fish that crash the party. The weather is super hot and the fish seem to be fired up. Black Sea Bass are an occasional catch along with Lane and Yellowtail Snapper. The last two seem to be found in 40 feet or more. Cobia are always a possibility on some of the nearshore reefs and wrecks. We have had great success with light chumming and a flat line out while we bottom fish. You never know what may show up. Book a trip soon so you don't miss all the action.

    Trip: Redington Shores Nearshore/Offshore

  • ★★★★★
    Fantastic day on the water with Captain Alex. I showed up to the dock a little early and everything was already dialed in—the boat was spotless, fully prepared, and stocked with fresh bait he’d caught that morning. Even on a quick half-day trip, we covered multiple areas and switched up tactics, starting with snook along mangroves and docks before moving on to speckled trout and mackerel. Captain Alex struck the perfect balance between being helpful and letting me fish how I wanted. He was always ready to assist, but also encouraged me to bait hooks, handle fish, and stay fully involved. The action stayed steady, and he offered great coaching and insight whenever I had questions. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’d absolutely book with him again and look forward to getting back out there soon!
