Trip Summary
We are approaching my favorite time to fish here in Naples! Over the next couple months, it seems like every fish around is hungry. Snook, mangrove snapper, small tarpon, jack crevalle, groupers, and redfish are all eating well right now and are being caught mostly every day. Baitfish are still plentiful and getting bigger by the day, which aids in getting some of the bigger fish interested in what we're offering.
This is the time of year when the redfish bite is best in our area. Whether it's low tide and they are cruising a shallow shoreline, or high tide and you're casting to them in flooded mangrove pockets, redfish seem to be all over right now. Over the last few trips, anglers have wrestled in multiple redfish anywhere from 20-30 inches.
