sheephead bite has been pretty steady due to cold water temperatures
unfortunately the last cold front lowered water temperatures to below 55 degrees and killed a good bunch of snook
trout bite has been on the rise using cut live shrimp on a jig head
redfish continue to be in the witness protection program
this beautiful weather will improve the fish bite for sure

Snook bite is hot right now using live shrimp.
Grey Snapper bite is also hot along with lady fish and catfish in between.
Redfish bite continues to be a difficult find but we’re getting on them here and there.
