As we move into fall, these big snook wil start to move up in the bays and onto the flats. For the wade fisherman it is a dream come true! Fall is my favorite time of the year. Big fish and an epic top water bite. What more could you ask?!? Letโ€™s get out there and make some memories!

The fall transition is in full swing and the fish got the memo! Snook are moving in from the beaches and passes. Reds are all over the place and the trout are starting to stack up. It truly is my favorite time of the year to get after some fish! Get on the calendar soon and donโ€™t miss out!

This is hands down my favorite time of the year for fishing. Now through Thanksgiving or so is always a special season. Snook are still around and moving from the beaches and passes up into the bays and flats. Big push of our larger reds in the bay and the big trout start showing their beautiful faces in preparation for winter. Forgot to mention that the top water bite is pretty epic as well! Get with me soon to chase some trophies and make some memories!

Cooler weather, cooler water, and a hot bite has been the theme for the last 2 weeks. Fall is definitely showing itโ€™s beautiful head and the fish have taken notice. The next few months are going to be insane. Donโ€™t miss out on some of the best fishing the year has to offer!
