Snapper (Mangrove)
Trip Summary
Trip Summary
We are starting to see the first transitions from midsummer patterns into our early fall patterns. Water in the bay is stilled darker than normal from all the rain, but the bait and fish are still out there aplenty. Most of the summer we have been targeting mangrove snapper, but the last few trips have been seeing more and more trout off the main boating channels, with some areas having an even mix of speckled and silver trout. As we progress into late summer/early fall, expect the snook and redfish bite to get better and better around the bay flats, grass beds, and mangrove shorelines.
