excellent captain and experience

Start the year off with some great inshore fishing. Go casting for Redfish, Sheepshead, and Speckled Trout among others. Alternatively, take a trip to the nearshore bottom fishing spots and land a tasty catch.

The bulk of the action remains inshore in February with Black Seabass, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and Redfish being the prime targets. However, if you're feeling lucky, you might be able to get a chance to test it offshore.

March marks the beginning of the offshore action heating up. Large bottom fish are getting more active and prized pelagic species are coming by in larger numbers. The inshore bite is on the upswing as well.

With the first warmer month comes your chance of hooking prized species such as Mahi Mahi, Kingfish, Wahoo, and Tuna. Inshore, your chances of a highly productive trip are quickly increasing as well.

Whatever you're looking to target is likely to be available in May. From Trout and Redfish in the island's creeks and marshes to the trophy fish waiting for those venturing out to the deep waters offshore.

The water's heating up and so is the action! Depending on the fishing grounds you chose to visit, the fish you'll be hooking can range from Spanish Mackerel to Tuna. If you're looking to catch a Shark, this is the prime month for it.

In the middle of summer it's all about getting out to the Gulf stream in search of Wahoo, Tuna, Sailfish, and Marlin. If you still prefer to stick to the inshore waters, you'll be able to have your pick from all the local species.

It's still great fishing all around the island. Deep sea species are still available in solid numbers and the backwater bite is as good as it gets. August is hurricane season, so just keep an eye out for that.

The beginning of fall means that inshore fishing is becoming the main attraction again with large Redfish starting to move to the backwaters. This doesn't mean the end of offshore action, however, since Wahoo, Tuna, and others are still around.

Stripers, Speckled Trout, Redfish and other inshore species are all waiting to be challenged in the fall months. Offshore, there are still battles to be fought as well, just take your pick.

With the offshore season nearing its end this month, the island belongs entirely to the inshore anglers. The inshore bite is still strong and the prizes are everywhere.

If the winter weather doesn't pose a challenge for you, the island's inshore waters will reward you with prizes like Speckled Trout, Bluefish, and Redfish.
