Well the fishing has been a little up and down for April but May is usually one of my favorite months to fish. We have been catching Reds still schooled up as well as singles laying in the sand holes . They should start to cruise the banks as the water levels have increased due to the spring tides . Cruising fish will hit layed up gulp shrimp , jerk baits and live shrimp or cut mullett . The Trout bite is getting much better In the last few days we have site cast to a 7lb trout and caught 5lbers on top water . With some luck the tarpon should start to move in over the next few weeks . For site casting to large reds up to 40lbs now is the time of year .

Well if Jan. is any indication on how Feb. is going to be sweet because we slayed them best day was 47 reds and slowest was 9 reds . The reds are schooled up in huge groups of up to 400 fish its great to see that many fish in crystal clear water , We have also had the big oversized reds show . They are up to 40 + pounds and have been a little hard to make eat but when they do hold on . Feb. books up fast with the big fish moving in so get your day while you can . Good luck and tight lines

Well we've had our first cold front and thats got the fish feeding like crazy in the last week we've been getting lots of big trout and reds on artificial as well as site casting live shrimp. The baits of choice have been top water in the am with the wind down and jerk baits or spoons later . The schools should be forming over the next couple of weeks and the water is clearing up nicely . This is a great time of year to fish the lagoon the weather is cool and the fish are feeding. This is the best time of year to find Tailing reds.

Well Oct. is just a couple of days away and the fishing has been great the Black drum are in schools of several 100 and reds are in the sand holes and are eating we should have great weather for the next couple of weeks and the tarpon should stick around till the mid of Nov or atleast till the first cold front. The water is very high in the lagoon and starting to clean up very well with the higher water the fish arent as spooky as usual so let get out there and do some fall fishing .

Well we have had TS Fay hover over us for 2 days and the increase in water and cooler water temps should have the fish in a feeding frenzy . The Tarpon should be going nuts and the red and trout should be scattering out into the sandholes . Look forward to the next couple of weeks of fishing it should be hot.

Well the water is coming up and warming with the spring like weather . The schools are starting to move into skinny water and the trout are strating to feed on the edges of bars . Over the next couple of weeks some of the best fishing as far as sight casting should be here . The top water bite is starting to turn on as well as the spoon bite. Us live shrimp or jerk baits as well as gulp 3in shrimp around the schools of reds and top water and jerk baits or spoons on the cloud over cast days to locate fish. Jigs work well on the edges for trout .

The fishing has been great for March with reds schooling up and feeding on live shrimp and gulps . The water is low in the lagoon right now which mean the schools are everywhere . Look for the trout bite to get better and the top water bite to increase over the next few weeks as the mullet start to show up.
