The blacks drum bite remains solid at the jetty's and the ocean is coming to life with bluefish. Atlantic bonito and Spanish mackerel are going to be right behind the blues, with some already showing up on our nearshore reefs.

Here on the Crystal Coast spring has sprung in the ocean. The Bonita are finally arriving along the beaches and we will chase these sushi grade speedsters casting metal, trolling spoons, and live baiting. The Chopper Bluefish are on the shoals and smashing topwater. And some jumbo False Albacore up to 25lbs are in the mix. Seabass fishing is solid in 80 to 100ft and the vermillion snapper, triggerfish are joining them. Great time of the year and it will only get better in the coming weeks as cobia and Spanish Mackerel arrive.

Bluefish are starting to show up.
Water is moving up, it's around 64-67 right now which will get more fish moving in. Never know what you're goin to catch this time of year while everyone's waiting on bonito!

Black drum, black Sea Bass, tautog and skinny water reds. That's what's up for this month.
All areas for sea bass, tautog & black drum less than 60' of water and deeper structure for black drum. Have you done shrimp and squid wing. Sea Bass on 2oz bucktails and black drum on 1/2 oz jigheads.
Redfish in the skinny, sightfishing with fly or light tackle. Tact is key.

We are still seeing an excellent speckled trout bite, but are also having some incredible black drum fishing when the wind allows us to get out to the jetties. Also catching some really nice striped bass on our speckled trout trips.

    We had the best morning with Justin! He was friendly, engaging, and provided a lot of education on the area, the water, the fish, and fishing. We got to explore many different parts of the river to ensure we had ample opportunities to catch both speckled trout and red drum. We also followed a pod of porpoises, which was a fun diversion. Justin cleaned our fish at the end of our excursion which we took home and prepared that evening for dinner. Delicious fish tacos thanks for Justin's guidance and navigation! We look forward to returning to the area and having Justin take us out for another fabulous adventure.

    Bradley is top notch. Everything from the gear, to the location, guide skill, and hunting dog was everything a person could look for in a guided hunt. Bradley’s dog, Shay, made some of the most impressive waterfowl retrieves I have ever seen. I will be sure to book with him again next season!
