Fishing continues to be good. Redfish are starting to show up on the flats in herds. Trout continue to be biting well. If you can get out on a day that the wind is light they fishing has been awesome.

The bay fishing throughout the past week has been a little tougher due to the heavy rains. Still catching speckled trout on both live and artificial baits. Larger soft plastics in natural mullet colors have been more productive. Try to find some baitfish and the larger fish should be in close proximity. Deeper water has also been yielding some larger redfish. The shallow grass flats are active towards the north end of the bay. Seeing some black drum on the calmer days. Should get better as the fresh water works its way out of the bay.

The bay has recently been flooded with rainfall recently. The fishing has remained stable. Catching speckled trout on both live baits and soft plastic artificial worms. Larger swim baits have seemed to be the ticket in darker colors. Redfishing has been more spotty. There are some schools if you can locate them. Black drum are cruising deeper water in schools. Been catching a few flounder along drop offs and shorelines. Expect the bite to get better as weather stabilizes.

Redfishing has been a little more hit or mis...Somedays have been better than others depending on wind and tidal fluctuations. After the tropical depression we have had an influx of fresh water and tidal push in water levels. All in all the fishing has remained decent and clients are happy with catches. My schedule is filling up so try and pick dates at least two weeks in advance.
