Trip Summary

As we roll into Thanksgiving the fishing had continued to stay great. The redfish and Sheepshead have consistently been biting on various tides depending on location. We have been able to catch our fosh using a combination of live shrimp and fiddler crabs. On our inshore trips I use light tackle running 15-20lb test braid and flourocarbon to increase our chances of a bite as well as to make the fight more fun. Water temps are dropping but the bite is heating up.

Included in our catch were several other smaller sheepshead that were released.

From Redfish to Sheepshead the inshore action has been great. We have been using a micture if live finger mullet, shrimp, and cut bait to entice a bite. If youre looking to get in on the best time of year to fish the next two months are gonna be great.
