Trout bite has been good; they are moving out of the creeks out to the flats for spawning. The reds are in the pass and up shallow if you like to sight fish. Sheepshead are just starting to show up; the bite is still slow for them but should start getting excellent any day. Offshore Vermillion snapper has been excellent! We've been catching some triggers and a red grouper. The Amberjack is always a great way to finish up a trip of catching and releasing them

The Redfish are on fire right now. We've had consistent enough weather to pattern the fish, and the water is warming up enough to keep them active. Topwater plugs is my favorite way to target these fish right now, but I'll also use swim baits and jigs. The Red Grouper bite was on fire this last week with the couple of good weather days we had, and the Vermilion Snapper and Triggerfish have been consistent all month. Red Snapper and Amberjack are easy to find, but until their season, we'll keep targeting other species. Spanish Mackerel are starting to get...

Spanish Mackerel are starting to get caught in the bay, but I expect it to be April 1st before the bite fires off.

The giant sheep head are biting very well and given descent seas and a 5 hour trip or longer I'm catching some delicious red groupers in the gulf. Even a ruff day and to windy even in the bay to target sheephead, still catching delicious and fun fish.

The Vermillion Snapper are biting! The red grouper has slowed down a little but still catching a couple each trip. The Amber Jack bite inshore and off has been great fun to catch and release. The inshore Redfish are shallow been sight fishing for them and the big trout are starting to bite.

The Pompano bite was great ahead of the full moon and the mild weather before the cold front came in. We were catching all of our fish on Fish bites and fresh dead shrimp.

Spring fishing is ramping up! Starting see the hering and threadfins moving inshore which means our Spanish will be here anytime. Starting to catch a few sheepshead at the jetties. Red Grouper and Vermillion snapper fishing have been great especially since dredge operation has moved Out along with the dirty water it created since October. Going to be a good year already have quite a few trips in the book

    We had 6 of us that did a 4 hr charter w/Captain Marvin on July 7th, only one of us knew how to fish and we all end up catching up plenty of fish. Captain Marvin was very patient with us, baited and casted all our rods. He was a great guide and we would use him again in the future
