The fishing has been decent. There's a biomass of trout in the bay right now and they're hungry the water temps are equalizing and thusly the snook have started bighting again the red fish we were blessed with a few weeks ago have seemingly left, mackerel in the outer bay...

Around town small snapper can be found pretty easy and plenty of Jack action as well.

With the cold fronts in the past, the winter months have produced warmer water temperatures and even hotter fishing.
