The bay fishing has been good recently. Catching some solid speckled trout in deeper water. Larger lures and soft plastics that resemble larger bait fish are producing some hard strikes. The redfishing has remained good throughout the past couple of months. Except one week when we received a crazy amount of rain. The fishing has stabilized since that rain storm. Both soft plastics and fresh cut bait have remained good choices for redfish. Shrimp and mullet colored worms are working for me. Expect the trout bite too only get better through out the next couple of weeks.

The bay fishing has remained good throughout the past couple weeks. Catching some nice boxes of fish on artificial lures and fresh cut bait. The windier spring weather has created some good fishing conditions for redfish out on our grass flats. Actually have had a lot of productive days targeting redfish because of the warmer windier weather patterns. Gold spoons, soft plastics mimicking shrimp or mullet, and fresh cut mullet have been slamming the reds. The speckled trout bite has been a little slower but still catching some solid specks of soft plastics. Once the wind dies the speckled trout...

The speckled trout bite has been a little slower but still catching some solid specks of soft plastics. Once the wind dies the speckled trout bite will come back to life. Probably be real good towards the end of May. Some schools of drum are popping up for those who like to target them. Should be another good month of fishing. My schedule is filling up quickly...

    Had a great time with Captain Arturo! Since most of us were new to saltwater fishing, he did a great job of explaining and teaching us. Captain Arturo was also a fun guy to be on the boat with.
