Big fish = Big fun

The inshore bite is very good.Especially at high tide. This is busy fishing. We're using 8 oz jigheads with soft plastics by bass assassin colors. Being golden glow, avocado red glitter. Working shorelines and creek mouths. You want to look for 2 types of bait at the same time. Whether glass meadows and pinned fish or pinned fish and mullet, or any combination. Light line and long cast are a must.

With the cold water came some challenges. Shrimp were hard to come by today. I pulled out mai deck of cards and we played some soft plastics with jigheads and got a little bit of trout in under two hours. While catching trout, we caught a couple of ladyfish. With the time we had left, we turned those into a few red fish. I'm a big fan of using jigheads. The added weight to the end of the line makes it easy to cast baits. While the temperatures are cold, remember, the fishing can be hot.

With the cold front settling in on us, my hopes were not very high. We fished with jigheads and soft plastics and caught several nice trout. We then switched over to you a circle hook style jighead, and it caught black drum. Sheep's head and redfish.
