Trip Summary

Spring fishing in is in full swing, and downtown is heating up. Big bull reds are starting to show up around the bridges and deeper structure, while slot redfish are cruising the shallows for those looking to bring dinner home. Speckled sea trout have been consistent on the right tides, and flounder are beginning to stack up along drop-offs and creek mouths. As the water warms, live bait and light tackle have been the ticket for steady action and unforgettable days on the water. - Captain Austin

Water temps are right where they need to be—fishing only gets better from here. - Captain Austin
