The tarpon bite has been on fire. 🔥 Lots of migratory fish showing up, makes for a lot of options on where and how we can target them. Cut and live bait in the mornings, and crabs around the last full moon in the afternoon/ evenings. We have some nice mangrove snapper around if you are looking for table fare, and the snook redfish and trout have remained steady if you are looking for a fun easy catch and release bite.

The water temperatures are perfect and the bite is on. Everything is biting snook and redfish are exploding on scaled sardines, large trout have been in good numbers. The mackerel bite has been great with fish up to 27 inches!

Tarpon and permit fishing is on fire right now, and it’s the perfect time to get on the water. Big tarpon are rolling and feeding hard, giving you a real shot at an unforgettable fight, while nearshore permit are showing up in numbers and ready to eat.

This is prime time—these opportunities don’t last long, and the bite has been as good as it gets. If you’ve been thinking about chasing tarpon or checking a permit off the list, now’s your window.

Spots are filling fast, so don’t wait. Reach out and lock in your tarpon and permit trip while the bite is this hot.

Trout was the hot action for spring. Pretty much every flat they can be found. Fish the shallow pot holes early then push out a little deeper as it gets later in the day. Moving water is the ticket either incoming or outgoing tide. Good to see trout in our area coming back after Piney Point disaster lots of small fish but there's some bigger over 20" fish mixed in. Spanish mackerel and king mackerel have started showing up good numbers nearshore in the gulf. They make for exciting action with their long fast runs pulling drag. I like to anchor up and chum for them with live bait but trolling planers and spoons works good as well. Just have to pick your days right now with the wind. Lots of action right now I will be switching to snook fishing starting May and maybe a few tarpon as well.
