St. Marys Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in St. Marys
Over the last several weeks we have seen an awesome bite of Sheepshead and Redfish. There have been a lot of upperslot redfish in the 24-27 inch range too. The sheepshead fishing has been steady near the inlets in our area with a wide variety in sizes. Our baits of choice lately have been fiddler crabs, sand fleas, and live Shrimp. I like to mix some cut mullet into the day on key spots to target Redfish. As the New Year begins I am preparing to target the same two species I spoke about above but typically see a few...

Hooked up on my old school sliding float rig at 12 ft. With live shrimp. Fishing around docks in a lot of current. We've gotten to the boat before, but all four were lost, probably 15 to 20 lb redfish. We ended up leaving there with a bunch of small Mangrove snappers that we didn't keep.
Hit the marsh creeks, and cast live shrimp on jig heads. And finished the day up with a 25-in red fish and a 20 inch redfish

Fishing has been on fire. Clearer water. Schooled up fish. Abnormal amount of tailing on the flats. Recommend throwing small and lighter colored as they can be rather spooky. Maintaining distance from the fish is highly recommended. Prefer clear skies and midday low to take advantage of sight casting.

Some great nearshore bottom fishing the last several trips. Keeper Black Sea bass, triggerfish and vermilion snapper are showing up in numbers now that the water has cooled off.
Helping out the state with some EFP Snapper trips and there's plenty of those out there. We were done with our 24 fish snapper limit in under 30 minutes.

Bull Reds The bull reds are fired up! We’re seeing big bruisers crushing bait around the deep holes and channel edges. Live mullet and cut bait have been the ticket. Bring the heavy gear—these giants aren’t playing around. Now’s the time to battle a beast! 💪🎣🔥

Sheepshead have started to show-- finally. Mostly in the river. Jetties is hit and miss. Some good speckled trout catches on live shrimp. Bonus bull reds while float rig fishing and Sheepshead fishing.
