Fall is coming. The brown shrimp have come back in from their spawn.
Mullet are starting to gather in the creek mouths.
That being said, there are some large traps moving in very shallow top waters, like skid or walks or chug bugs. If it's grassy, work the chug bug like it's a walk, the dog.
Cut mullet cut in live. Pinfish are also getting the red fish.

It's still hot out but the fish seem to not care too much if the tides right. As fall creeps in things will be on fire

When the wind isn't blowing.
The offshore bait has been fair to good.
Find some shallower numbers in forty 52 fifty foot of water and start there.You'll get a few red grouper.Some big gags, you have to throw back and a few keeper red snapper.
So if you move out to 80 to a 100 foot, there are a few more reds grouper and snapper sardines cigar, minos. Thread, herring are all good baits.The fresher or liver, they are, the better they are.
With this full moon, the tide's running hard, so you'll need a few more ounces of lead...

to hold bottom.I like to match the size of my hook to the size of the bait.

The redfish bite is very good, especially at higher tide stages. The baits of choice have been soft plastics on an eighth or sixteenth-ounce jig head. Look for schools of bait and start fishing there.

The trout bite has been good as well—it’s a bit of a hunt-and-peck approach. The same soft plastics are working, with colors like Golden Glow, Watermelon Red Glitter, and Kitchen Sink. Use eighth- to quarter-ounce jig heads.

Book a trip and we’ll show you firsthand.

Fishing report for the weekend of Easter. We are catching a lot of red fish.Most of them overslot, there are some keepers mixed in.We are also catching a lot of speckled sea trout.
Eight ounce red gold or pink jigheads with avocado red glitter watermelon, red glitter, golden glow or kitchen sink colors have been the best.
Shorelines with jumping, mullet and glass meadows are the places to work any place. There's a hole urgency or a little bit of structure.You want it to work it double time.

    TJ was as knowledgeable as any guide, he was talented at his craft and worked hard. He also was clear in his instructions and put me in the best position for my casting ability. TJ also spent time instructing my fishing partner. He was a great conversationalist and was a pleasure to spend the day with. I will definitely schedule more trips with TJ.
