For our trout croaker and soft plastic that put out a lot of sent such as gulp, am lures and others with artificial attractants on them have been very good.
Redfish have been good with cut mullet in mouths or back lakes.
Black drum have been scattered in potholes on flats. The typical bit of choice of dead shrimp on the bottom.

Hey yall! Afternoon redfish bite is still strong in the surf with trout starting to show up. Still catching some black drum but in smaller numbers. Flounder are coming back from the gulf, on the smaller size but expect them to start coming in larger numbers and sizes in the coming weeks.
