We have been targeting redfish and trout at the creek mouths and inside the creeks our trout has been in the deeper holes and the redfish are mixed in with them to there are a lot of our redfish on the edge of the oyster bars and rocks on the side of the creek banks. We have been sight casting our redfish on the side of the banks using Zman prawn star in the 3.5 inch per rig 3/16oz. The trout has been biting the same bait you do need to let it sink a little more do to it being a little bit lighter then we have been working it slow on the bottom with the cooler air temperature.

Merry Christmas to all!

Sheepshead fishing has been picking up on the nearshore rocks. Live shrimp and fiddler crabs will get them to eat. Black bass, grunts and Spanish mackerel are also on the rocks. Inshore, the water has cooled and the reds and trout are moving to the creeks and rivers. Some black drum and mangrove snapper are in the deeper holes of the creeks. There has been very little water due to extreme low tides and a persistent east wind, thus most of the fishing is in the main river and nearshore rocks recently.
