Mixed Bag

The weather is warming up, the bait is showing up and fish are biting. Trout, redfish, sheepshead are all chewing now. We are getting some pompano and spanish Mackerel showing up as well.

The grouper season here opens on 1 June. Come out with Finders Keepers Charters and try to catch these tasty fish on light to medium tackle either bottom fishing or trolling lipped plugs. The action is a little farther offshore in the summer months and then heats up nearshore as the water cools. I will chum up rocks in 20- 25 feet of water with pin fish and then free line a nice size one and wait for the bite to happen. Then it is a tug o war. Book now as prime days are going fast.

Opening day of baseball season is today. It is also the time the tripletail show up on the crab pot buoys on the gulf. The Past two trips yielded 2 fish up to 20 inches and have had 3 or 4 fish that were just short of the 18 inch minimum each day. The tower on the Aeon allows me to see the fish and direct the anglers on the pinpoint location and once hooked these guys like to get airborne at times and pull really hard. Plus these taste great and yield quite a bit of white flaky filets. Book now as April is prime time for tripletail and the cobia should be right behind. Captain Kevin Finders Keepers Charters llc
