Woke up quick, at about noon…been a busy past few weeks working and I finally got the chance to sleep in and fish. Perfect. The bite started out pretty slow with a single small snook […]

What a wild month we have had! It seems Mother Nature can’t make up her mind. Cold, windy, hot and calm — this has been one weird winter!

The weather has remained very inconsistent for us, but we did get out and fish the inlet and got into some nice redfish this week. We also got into some pompano, bluefish, and Spanish mackerel along the beaches.

With Valentine’s day looming on the weekend, I had two days available to hit Brevard county beaches. Wednesday was my first available day and I traveled to the Northern part of the county. The public beach had a few fisherman and was loaded with beach-goers as the morning wore on. My morning was filled with a fairly steady whiting bite and one lone pompano.

Sheepshead seems to be the talk to the town! I have had numerous requests on information about how to catch sheepshead! Most everyone knows that this time of the year sheepshead are a popular target. These fish make great table fair, reproduce quickly, and give for a pretty good pull on the line!

Offshore fishing has been completely hit or miss with the weather. Kings continue to eat from the 650 line all the way to the north ridge, all on dead minnows. Bunker have shown up the last few days in the bight, though

This week brought positive changes in the fishing! The water conditions are super low and the clearest I have seen in a long time, but it is still cold and barren. In other words, most […]

We had another good week fishing the inlet as well as the river. The snook and redfish bite in the Inlet was the pretty good, with the most consistent results coming on live greenies and pinfish. There’s been a fair number of pompano around the spoil islands, in the inlet and along the beaches. Bluefish and mackerel are moving along the beaches again, as well.

The past week provided a huge variety of fish for Captain Justin and myself. Mangrove snapper, crevalle jack, ladyfish, snook, redfish, speckled trout and even a baby tarpon came aboard our boats to pose for a quick photo and release session with our charter guests. Live shrimp have been our go to natural bait for this week. Saltwater Assassin 4-inch Sea Shad and Rapala Subwalk and Twichin’ Mullet have been our choices for artificial lures.

Redfish and trout started to school up with the cooler weather and low tides brought on by the full moon. Though the bite has been a bit slow in general, black drum, mangrove snapper and sheepshead have been actively chewing on the docks. With the warmer weather this week, the fish should be much more active.

Looked like a short window of hope to get offshore Saturday, we left the ramp at 5AM in search of some sunrise wahoo action. The ride out was surprisingly smooth, considering the recent weather. After a couple hours pulling through what looked to be productive waters, and no action, we switched things up and went deep.

The river and residential canals around Satellite Beach are producing a lot of sheepshead, black drum, red drum and mangrove snapper. In the surf, fishermen are catching margate and pompano along with some whiting and bluefish when clean water is available.
