Today the seas were a little rowdy due to an afternoon storm pushing in. We decided to keep it simple and put out some trolling rigs to pull up some Mackerals and Amberjacks. We scored a few nice Spanish Mackerals, picked up a Bonita andn an Amberjack. Afterwards we stopped to bottom fish for a bit and were able to snag a nice Mangrove snapper, a few Vermillion snappers, Triggerfish, and Red Snappers.

This past week we have been battling heavy winds and rains. The water temps have been very inconsistent but range from 68 to 71 degrees. Our water color has been like chocolate milk from all the runoffs. However, we are seeing an uptick of spanish mackerals and the bite should be heating up throughout April and May. Offshore we are seeing alot of great grouper catches with red grouper and gags. We predict once our weather temps stabilize and the water begins to warm a few degrees we will start picking up King Mackerel and a few stray cobias swimming around. Riggt now there is alot of running and gunning from spot to spot to pick up some quality catches such as porgies, vermillion, red and lane smappers along with those triggerfish. Basically, the only opportunity to get out there and hook a good fish is to go do it. Late April through November is some of the best times to get out on the water. So lets get out there and go fishing.

We started the morning in search if a few sheepshead before heading off to hunt some Vermilion snapper. Although the bite is still a bit slow do to all the recent cold fronts, we were able to put a few in the box for our guests. As our days start to warm up, the fishing will get better for sure. Today we caught Lane Snapper, Vermillion snapper, grunts, mangrove snapper, and sheepshead.
