Yellow Jack fishing has been very consistent over the past few weeks. Live bait such as pinfish or pilchards has been producing best, but anglers are also catching them on bucktail jigs and topwater lures. These hard-fighting jacks put up a great battle and are excellent table fare.
The inshore snapper bite is red hot right now. Using live or cut bait, anglers are catching plenty of legal snapper in the shallow waters.
A few cobia have started to show up, but the large numbers we’ve seen in recent years haven’t arrived just yet.

Reef and inshore bite have been steady with consistent action fighting mangrove and yellowtail snapper with the occasional grouper. We have a great time the past two weeks fishing for dinner with these families!

    Our guide was knowledgeable and courteous I booked a all day trip and we had some good shots at catching fish. The only thing I was surprised at was the only food available for all day was water. I have booked many flats fishing excursions and always was supplied with at least a sandwich
