Fishing the bays and back lakes for redfish and a few black drum on cut mullet and sardines. Jetty fishing has been good for bull reds and slots with a few black drum, mangrove snapper, and black drum. Sheepshead should start showing up any time.

October is starting off in full fashion. This is the best month of the year to catch a redfish of a lifetime.

Red October has been good. The back bays and jetties have been producing big boxes of fish. Big schools of slot reds are ganging up at the jetties making for some crazy mornings. On the other hand, Flounder gigging has been challenging. Water conditions have been tough, with low tide and crazy high tides and cloudy water, but we are still producing good numbers of fish. No two nights are the same!

If you haven’t given fall bay fishing a try, you are missing out on a fun and fruitful time! Fishing around the oyster beds, breaks, and drop-offs for trout, redfish, or flounder, using MirrOlures, Gulp, or shrimp. For black drum and redfish, fish by the birds. Look for seagulls working and fish will follow. Lots of undersized trout and plenty of slot reds.

Redfish still have been taking the spotlight.
Sand, grass, mud or shell it doesn't matter. Water temps are dropping at night and these fish are eating like crazy.

    Captain Jody was a great guide for me and my 3 sons! Two of my sons had never been fishing before and Captain Jody was patient and a great teacher. He knew the spots where the fish would be hitting, and we caught our limit of trout. Then back at the dock he fillet our fish quickly and precisely.We had a great time and would definitely recommend a trip with Jody.

    Great morning with Travis. Got us onto fish straight away and our two boys loved it. A 30” redfish started things off and we finished with a 5-6ft alligator gar, with plenty of others between them. Highly recommend a trip out with Travis!

    Had a great time. Slow start but s great finish. Probably the weather. But was the most fish we have caught in a long time. Hit the grand slam. We really enjoyed the trip Travis. Thank you so much. We will be back!!! And don't forget, if you find that cork let me know what it was and how big. Trey, thanks for your help in getting everything worked out on the booking. You got us a great guide. 👍👍👍

    Travis did as good a job as any guide can do. He put us fish. We limited out on one species and found another but didn’t get any keepers.
