Use a popping cork for the trout on the flats with a 1/4oz or 1/8oz Jighead with a shrimp or artificial and use a MirrOdine XL to trigger them big trout to bite. When you are fishing them deeper trout use a 1/4oz Jighead with a shrimp or artificial lure.

Our Pelagic Angler Expertise is in play as We target hogfish year round, but it’s best from November to May as it gets more difficult to catch them consistently during the summer months due to water temperatures. Our 1/2 day and 3/4 day charters are perfect for getting on great Hogfish action out in the Gulf of Mexico, due in part to the relative closeness of the fishing grounds. Here’s the FWC breakdown for Hog Snapper. Expect a ton of action on these snapper fishing charters. The best part of fishing for the hog snapper is the challenge of getting them to bite. They have very large mouths, but only pick at the bait, making them hard to hook. Once you do hook one however, you will know by the telltale way they fight, extremely fast tail beats on the line and drag pulling as they look for a rock crevice to find safety in. Considered one of, if not the best, eating of the snapper species. We Deliver the Results Exceed Expectations!!

It's been a windy few weeks with multiple cold fronts pushing through. Which has gave way to some excellent patch reef fishing . Many keeper mutton's have moved shallow with some being caught over 18 pounds in less then 17 ft of water . Not to mention decent yellowtails , red grouper , lane snappers ,mackerels and more . On the inshore side bait has been thick giving way to many great opportunities for tarpon snook , and plus sized mangrove snappers . Plenty of action to be had !

Been on a fun early morning topwater bite. Snook, jacks , and tarpon on artificial and fly before the sun comes up. Once the bright of daylight starts to shine the fly and lure bite dies and we have been switching to live bait.

Reported: 2 weeks ago

The inshore fall byte, has been heating up. Lots of red fish Some really nice black drum, a few sheepshead and the occasional snook. It's been too rough to get offshore. The last couple of weeks, hopefully that will change soon. The bite should be red hot.
