Shallow water fishing has been excellent in Clearwater this winter. Huge trout and big redfish are the targets. Top water action early in the day has brought several trout in the plus 20 inch class to the net. Rapala skitter v's worked through the mullet schools will not only attract the attention of the trout but also the redfish. This is the time of year that the big trout move into the super shallows and this year is the best we've seen in many years.

Tailing redfish have been spooky but catchable during the first half of the incoming tide....

Tailing redfish have been spooky but catchable during the first half of the incoming tide.
Soft plastic baits like the Z-man jerk shadz tipped with pro- cure scent are working well with the right cast and the right approach.

Lots of schoolie trout can be caught in the slightly deeper water just off the shallow flats. 1/8 ounce jig heads with a Z-man jerk shadz catch em all day long. Making them easy targets in the 25' sea hunt if you have a larger crew.

Redfish have also been caught in the sea hunt this month. Top of the tide is the time to soak some fresh baits for redfish hanging in the mullet schools.

Scott with the cold snaps the sheepshead are moving in on docks and rock piles along with some mangrove snapper and key west grunts. On the warmer days in the afternoon between fronts the snook will come out and feed with some reds mixed in. Trout are feeding in some of the deeper grass flats and canals

Fishing has been on fire lately both nearshore and inshore. Nearshore trips have been producing steady action with hogfish, multiple species of grouper, porgies, gray snapper, and mackerel, while inshore fishing has been just as productive with solid grouper, mackerel, trout, redfish, and snook showing up consistently. Conditions have lined up perfectly, the bite has been strong, and it’s been a great mix of variety and quality fish across the board.

    We arrived at the Dock to meet the Captain and get our trip underway ,Captain Tommy was awesome right from the start not to mention very nice boat with a lot of room and very fast !!! He was an awesome Fisherman and would teach and show his skill’s and would answer any questions. Captain Tommy would absolutely put you right on the fish , if he didn’t like a spot he would drag and go somewhere else !! 10 out of 10 for us ,we would always book him if we are in the area. Hope to get him up to Destin sometime!!!

    CPT Logan is an awesome young man. We fish 6 or 7 holes. We landed at least 2 fish per stop. We caught Snook, Reds, Black Drum, Sheep's Head and Mangrove Snapper. We landed over 14 fish of 5 different species in less than 3 hrs. What a day. I'll definitely be back to fish w him again.

    What an unforgettable experience!! We had so much fun and caught so many fish with Captain George- I’m also pretty sure he might actually be a fish whisperer! He was so personable and accommodating. We have fallen in love with this area and can’t wait to come back next year- and you can bet that we will definitely be booking another fishing trip! Thanks for the memories, Captain George!!
