Trout bite is awesome. Water temp in low low 80s. Alot of wind so we have to be selective on fishing area but the Trout are scattered around but still hungry. Finally have a good summer tide. As this wind lays over the next few days we should more areas to fish.

sLast few weeks have been hot. Lots of Spanish Mackerel still running. We won 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place for a sweep in the inshore competition last weekend. Seeing Mahi starting to come in, some big grouper, big red snapper, a couple big redfish caught offshore of all places. All in all the fishing is great right now.
