Fishing Report

The biggest factor in successful fishing of late has been water levels.  We’ve had a water dump which caught us by surprise and the ultra low tides took everyone off solid locations and put us on the hunt.  That’s always fun working the pattern change.  Other than the occassional flat spot, both size and numbers have been good on Redfish.  Capt. Chris Cady has been doing some great work on airboat trips with Capt. James Cunningham; Capt. Braden Proctor; Capt. Kolten Braun and Capt. Trey Ross working the flats.  When it comes to Trout, drifting artificial has been producing in a brief window of mild winds only to be shut down as winds ramp up ahead of a weather change.  Wade fishing artificial has been the real ticket for Capt. Trey Ross taking names on light tackle working mud/grass for both Trout and Redfish.  The topwater bite has been a go to switching to soft plastics when things slow up a bit.

No Bananas On A Boat

Quickest way to rattle a fishing guide is drag some bananas on the boat with you.  The negativity surrounding that “lore” is alive and well among professionals on the water today.  Check out our Photo Gallery.
We’ve got lots and lots of great fishing ahead of us. Come see us!
