Fishing has continued to remain consistent. Trout have been great early along deeper grass lines and rock beds throwing croaker and shrimp. Reds are showing up in the flats in big schools and are getting ready to make their spawn run. Flounder have been on channel edges in big numbers. Drum have also been showing up around spoil islands. They have been easy to spot. Dead shrimp on a 1/16 to 1/8 ounce jig head has shown great results.

With the tide being so low the fish have been staging along deeper drop off and trash lines. Look for bigger schools of mullet in these areas and/or slicks popping up. The trout have been great on croaker, the reds are feeding on piggies and cut mullet, the flounder and...

The trout have been great on croaker, the reds are feeding on piggies and cut mullet, the flounder and drum have both been coming on live shrimp.

Reds have been getting more plentiful. Cutt bait using skipjack or mullet, after 10:30am as been working well.
I have had a lot of luck on popping cork early with live shrimp.
Black drum on dead shrimp has been good, just have to find the school of them

Trout fishing has continued to be outstanding, free-lining live croaker in 3-4ft of water. Redfish and black drum are schooled up on the surface and can be very easily sight-casted with a live shrimp!
