Trip Summary

Theres been some good fishing lately but we’ve been having to really work for it though. Black drum, sheepshead and some overslot drum have pretty much been the best for trips in the sound. Havent had any 6 hours to get out there fish the nearshore wrecks but the fishing out there has been good. Triggerfish, amberjacks, and spanish mackerel are abundant. Hope to see yall soon!

Sheepshead fishing is getting better too around the bridge and speckled trout is open as well. Lets go fishing!

The fishing has been good here lately. Spending some time in the ocean alot on the nicer days. Cobias are still making a show here definitely a nice class a fish around just have to be in the right place at the right time. Long trips 6-8 hours will we your best bet with those for the next couple weeks. Some good spanish mackerel fishing as well. Trigger fish are starting to make a show expecting to see some of those here soon. 6-8 hour trips are best for trips in the ocean. In sound sheepshead, red drum, black drum and bluefish are in the sound. Lets get you out there dont wait till the last minute send me a message!
