Scalloping season has slowed down to a simmer. However the Redfish bite continues to strengthen . They are schooling up and are on the bite . I would say the bite will stay strong into September . September is when we will also see the trout begin to return from offshore. We of course are catching a few still along with our redfish . This time of year the near shore rocks are full of excitement. With every drop of a shrimp there is a pull on the line. Generally catching mangrove snapper and grunts. Btw I consider some of the best table fare out there. The fall season is booking fast so now is the time to get on the schedule for one of my favorite times of the year to fish here on the nature coast . Capt David Maki Finntastick charters
