Fishing has been great this past week, redfish, flounder and seatrout make up the "Inshore Slam", as well as some fine table fare! Get out on the water with Salty Charters of Jacksonville for an essential escape from confinement and boredom!

Cruised the beach this week in search of Cobia from St Augustine to Mayport, while the Cobia were not be found, we ran across a school of huge Black Drum. I estimate this one was about 70 lbs, I sure had a hard time lifting it up! It's always fun to get surprised by an unexpected catch and there are alot of different species on the move this time of the year. The waterways are open, let's go fishing!

Winter fishing has been productive but difficult at times due to windy conditions and cold temps. Our 2 week forecast calls for daytime temps to remain above 70 degrees. Water temperatures will begin to rise quickly bringing an increased quantity of bait and hungry predators! Pictured are a couple nice redfish brought to the boat recently on a cooler day. Grab your sunscreen and let's go fishing, spring in Jacksonville Beach rocks!

Spent a cool Thursday afternoon on Jacksonville's inshore waters, Jim and Tom were rewarded with some nice redfish in the 22-24" range along with lots of action with smaller reds. Recent trips have seen nice catches of flounder and black drum as well. Warmer days are ahead, book now with Salty Charters!

January weather in NE Florida can get a bit cold, but our 2 week forecast is for mild temperatures with a couple minor cold fronts coming through. Conditions will be great for shallow water action with redfish, pictured is a double header of 24" redfish from last weeks trip with Hayden and Chris! Afternoon tides are optimal through January 15th, morning tides best from the 16th to the 21st. Let's go fishing!

It's the best time of the year for shallow water fishing for redfish. Monday afternoon's trip included great action with 10 reds from 20" to 24" and numerous smaller fish in the 16" range, tons of fun on light spinning tackle. The morning tides prior to Christmas day will be productive as will the afternoon tides between Christmas and New Years Day, book now as my calendar is filling up!
