Speckled trout have shown up in big numbers. Did some catch and release Red Snapper last week. Biggest 2 ever caught on the boat and it was back to back. The biggest one was 22 lbs. The other one was 18 lbs. Not bad for 35' of water.

The offshore sea bass fishing has been really good this year when we get the good weather days, with trigger if and porgies mixed in! The inshore bite is getting better with the bigger sheepsheads moving in to spawn. With warmer weather approaching the inshore fishing is going to be great.

Warmer weather is helping our cause! Mix of fish this week, few a slot reds along with trout and ringtails for the frying pan. Some bigger reds in the mix as well! If the weather cooperates, the black sea bass have been biting as well!

Today we had to adjust plans a bit with rain in the forecast, so instead of running as far offshore as I wanted, we fished some productive, nearshore, live bottom.
The action stayed steady with plenty of black sea bass to keep rods bent, and we also put one red snapper in the boat. Water temperature was 54, still on the cooler side, but the fish were chewing.

Sailfish are biting when we are able to get out. When the conditions allow for multiple releases every trip. Look for birds and eddies in the current. Fish have been on the move between 140-300ft.
Water temp is cold 72 degrees run and gun till you see the signs
