Pine Island Sound, FL Mar 21st 2023 We’ve had an excellent week fishing inshore, the bite has been as good as you’d expect with warmer water temps and calmer conditions. Redfish and snook around mangrove islands and some of the best trout fishing I’ve seen in recent years. We have been catching our fair share… Continue reading Gators In The Bay

Pine Island Sound, FL March 13th, 2023 The bite has been excellent this week despite the wind and small fronts we have been dealing with. Bait has been excellent, catching medium-sized whitebait in the mornings and getting extra for chumming the fish up while we fish. The tides have been typical spring highs, with very… Continue reading High Waters and Hard Fighters

Back to throwing a net in the mornings… Continue reading Back To The Hot Inshore Bite

Captiva Pass, FL February, 25th 2023 Nearshore has been our go-to all week long with calm water and winds. We are fishing between 6 and 9 miles out in 40-60 feet of water using live shrimp.
