Another blessed day of fishing new areas of this vast Yankeetown fishery.

Snook, trout and redfish are all in the mix right now with some larger fish mixed in.Healthy snook and redfish a being pulled out from under the mangrove tree lines. Live scaled sardines and pinfish have been the bait of choice! If you're looking for table fair you can't beat the mangrove snapper that are also feeding on scaled sardines and shrimp.

Naples inshore fishing in August is as interesting as it is hot! The hot summer spawning activity of the snook is slowing down, but there are plenty of big ones still around, as they spread out from the passes into their usual haunts. What gets interesting, is the big redfish start to show up with more predictability as they begin to gather up for their on spawning fun in the fall. In addition to the gamefish, the are lots and lots of mangrove snapper at just about every spot we fish, that can quickly load up the cooler and cleaning...
Naples inshore fishing for big snook in August, means fishing with big chunk of freshly cut threadfin herring, ladyfish, or mullet, under the mangroves, and patience. These fish will often stare at a piece of bait for a while, before finally decide to slurp it up. They are lazy, and want it fresh. if the angler is impatient, and keeps tugging and making the bait move, they will not eat it. Big fish know chunks of cut bait aren’t supposed to move! There are also plenty of snook in the passes, and under docks and other deep cutes, These fish want a nice medium sized pilchard or pinfish fed into their ambush point. There is nothing like that distinct thump when a snook hits that live bait!
The redfish are in the back country, but are starting to gather up towards the outside points, passes, cuts and docks, a

🎣 The fishing was good to very good last month on the Indian and Banana River Lagoons near Melbourne, FL. The pattern has stayed the same. Snook have been the most consistent bite followed by Mangrove Snappers, Seatrout, Redfish, and even some Sheepshead. There are some Tarpon around as well. The water is very, very hot right now so the best bite is early on everything. Think sunrise to 0830. Half or 3/4 days are all you need!

Kevin is a great guide. Very knowledgeable of the area waters and a genuine pleasure to talk to. He put us on the fish in no time and we caught our limit of snapper along with a bonus snook and jackfish. I highly recommend him for your choice.

Wonderful Trip! First charter we have ever been on and couldn't have asked for a better morning! Captain Tim is 10/10 guide, knew the perfect spots to be, great at coaching, and great taste in music. Tim cleaned the fish for us and everything. Will 100% be booking with Captain Tim again.

Captain Troy was fantastic!!!! He got us on tons of fish. First time deep sea fishing and what an experience!!!! All four of us hooked onto mahi mahi at the same time and were so excited!! Dereck, the first mate absolutely worked his tail off keeping bait on all lines and helping us haul in allllll the fish!!!! We caught black fun tuna, mahi, and even a wahoo! Banner day, couldn't have asked for a better fishimg charter. If you dont wanna be disappointed book Capt Troy and the Miller Time boat!!

What an awesome experience. Kevin is fantastic! He knew the water and the fish and we had an amazing experience. Caught snapper, ladyfish, jack, snook, and even pivoted quickly to a lemon shark when we knew one was near by. It was a memorable adventure and I would highly recommend Kevin! Kevin also knew the area well and we went to the Lazy Lobster to have our catch cooked. So much fun! Thank you Kevin!
