Reef and wreck has been a bit of a challenge with warmer water temps bringing in more shark activity, some days have been tougher than others but we still managed to put some nice boxes together of yellowtail, and more Offshore bite has been decent with a very consistent almaco jack and amber jack bite.

Mahi have been a bit a of a roller coaster with some strong weeks early on and a few tough days in between to find quality fish. On tough Mahi days the tuna have been great on vertical jigs and live bait, and also had some great deep drop opportunities for vermillion and more.
The trout bite slowed down but the redfish and snook are on fire in the back water of Ormond and Flagler, while snapper and sharks are hot hot hot in the Port Orange/Ponce Inlet area.

Redfish bite is cooled off waste week with that cool front and full moon. I am expecting bite to ramp up with the warmer weather. Sea trout and weak fish bite is also getting better. A few whispers of some black drum in the river. Baits of choice have been shrimp under a float and cut finger mullet or pinfish on a bottom rig.

The redfish bite is hot right now in Port Orange to Flagler Beach. The fish are moving up chasing mullet and other small bait fish on the oysterbars. Water keeps getting warmer, and the snappers are heating up with it. I am starting to see small Spanish mackerel and ladyfish in the river and around ponce. Spring is definitely in the air.

Redfish bite is hot, sheephead is still strong but size is going down as the water temps warm up. This brings on the snapper bite. Magic # is 72 degrees for the snappers. Sharks have invaded the shallows, where they range from 2 to 4 '. Baits of choice have been shrimp, mud minnows and live finger mullet of you can find them.

Captain Billy B was exceptional. Worked very well with my two children and was very knowledgeable on the water. We caught plenty of fish and will definitely be back again
He Knows where fish are and will get you opportunities to catch em. Very knowledgeable about his craft and puts in the time to get you shots at your target species!
We had a fabulous day’s fishing with Chris - he is knowledgeable, engaging and surpassed the expectations of our group.
