Shallow Water Slammers!!!!

The trout bite has picked up as the water temperature has started to drop. Catching trout on deeper grass flats next to channels with moving water has been key. Redfish are steady, fish are tending to be on the smaller side with some really nice fish mixed in. Snook are still around, mixed in the with trout and reds on bars, oyster points and potholes.

Started the late afternoon session working some of the deeper oyster bars picking up redfish as they were being pushed out by the dropping tide. Large white baits with their tails removed seemed to be the ticket in the higher water temperature. Then shifting to the back county working deep mangrove cuts for snook and juvenile tarpon to finish out the trip. It’s always fun to get the schools fired up with live chum. They definitely put on a show.

The trout bite on the deeper grass flats has beem fast and furious. This has been putting plenty of fish for dinner in the cooler. The snapper bite on the rocks and near shore reefs are producing as well. And our summer time snook bite is fantastic early in the morning on the moving tide.
