Early spring fishing is best, but we did very well in midsummer. The area is very picturesque and even on a day with no fish the day on the water is worth in.

The tide was coming in and it was really windy. Fishing was good. Higher tide would have made fishing better.

While it seemed that the dock talk while waiting was that the fishing was slow we still caught plenty of fish and had enough to take some home. Overall we caught over 6+ species.

Check to see that the tarpon are in before booking. We had fun successfully fishing for Red Fish and Trout in the sound, but initially booked for Tarpon.
