Great Redfish Bite

Sept 2026 It has been an excellent month for fishing. The jetties were still holding plenty of Tarpon and big redfish. The flounder bite was great with plenty of keepers, the bait of choice was a finger mullet. We were also fishing quite a bit in the backwater with great catches of slot Redfish and Speckled Trout along with Black Drum and Flounder. There were plenty of trout in the upper slot along with quite a few that were over 19 inches. As the water starts to cool the fishing is only going to get better.

This past week we had some spectacular two-hour trips with the younger crowd. Lots of action with some good whiting catches which is great for the dinner table. Had quite a few in the fourteen-to-sixteen-inch range. The backwater trips produced some nice redfish and speckled trout. Most were caught using a live shrimp under a cork. The redfish were in the one-to-four-foot range with the trout being caught anywhere from four feet to 10 feet. There are still the big black drum around with bull redfish being caught at the jetties, when it's not rough.

Fishing Report October 2025 The fishing was on fire for the month of October. The water cooled down in the high sixties, and the fish responded. Plenty of Speckled Trout and Black Drum, Redfish were to be had. Lots of slot fish for the dinner table. Live shrimp was the primary bait fished under a cork anywhere from two feet deep to eight feet deep. Oysterbeds and runouts were productive. The jetties some really nice Bull Redfish with cut Whiting being used as bait.
