Trip Summary

On the last day of March we were gifted a beautiful morning of liggt winds and a low incomjng tide. We set out in search of crawling redfish on shallow flats and targeted them with artificial lures. We had quick success boating two redfish that we sight fished. The angler on todays trip made a great casts and was able to decieve the fish without spooking them. After the tide rose for a couple hours we switched up out tactics and set out to look for a variety of species. We fished live shrimp and fiddler crabs and were able to land several nice sheepshead, trout, and a few more small red fish.

This mornings trip had excellent conditions and a great incoming tide. We started the trip just after low tide and ran to a few spots in the ICW checking for active redfish. Once we found an oyster bar with activity and hungry redfish we were hooked up shortly after. We went on to catch a few decent sized fish and unfortunately lost a nice one next to the boat on a pulled hook. Definitely a heartbreaker but we moved on to search for some clean incoming tide. Once we were set up in some deeper water we were able to land several more redfish and this beautiful 20” speckled sea trout. As the sun rose throughout the morning the temps soared quickly into the 90s and we were glad to be escaping the blazing heat after a successful morning of inshore fishing.
