Trip Summary

Redfish bite is hot, sheephead is still strong but size is going down as the water temps warm up. This brings on the snapper bite. Magic # is 72 degrees for the snappers. Sharks have invaded the shallows, where they range from 2 to 4 '. Baits of choice have been shrimp, mud minnows and live finger mullet of you can find them.

The Halifax River has the shrimp run going right now. You can find them on the channel ledges by using your depth finder to locate the clumps of shrimp traveling down that ledge.
