Wow!! What a run of fish we are having right now! A trip last week we had a few redfish up to 32". We have been getting some keeper trout and flounder as well. There are jacks,ladyfish and bluefish everywhere. Then there are the cobia. We had over 30 cobia on Tuesday, all caught on artificials. On Wednesday I had 6 in the morning and we had 7 in the afternoon. On thursday the bite had thinned out and we got a few with a few followers. We then went out a little bit deeper and got some nice sharks over 100 pounds. It is a great time to get out fishing right now. Click here to look at the pictures.

The fishing has been getting better with each day since the few feet of rain we got a few weeks ago. The salinity level has started to rise. The majority of the fish are still near the inlets and the main i.c.w. I had a trip last week that we stayed on fish just about the entire 8 hours. We caught a few sharks up to 6 feet, we had a few redfish up to 32", some mangrove snapper, with a ton of jacks and bluefish throw in the mix as well. I had a trip up in Mayport on the weekend. We had a nice school of redfish in super shallow water all around us for over 2 hours. As each day passes and we keep getting some eastern breezes the water is clearing up and the fishing is returning to the way it should be this time of year. See you out on the water!

The topwater bite is as good as it gets. One morning a few days ago I had 16 redfish over 24 inches in 23 casts throwing a topwater lure. That morning I also had a 3.4 pound and a 4.6 pound trout on topwater. Two nights ago we found a school of well over 1000+ ladyfish up to 30 inches long. They were as far as the eye could see and we were having triple hook ups with each series of casts on topwater. We also had a nice 28 inch redfish that was over 8 pounds!
There is snook moving in an hour south of here. Last week we had eight with the largest 21.5 inches. We are going down there tonight to see if we can get some larger ones. There are nice trout, over size redfish and tons of jacks and ladyfish around! This is some of my favorite fishing times of the year. It is best to get on the water by 6:15 a.m. for the first two hours of daylight or from 7-9 p.m. For the topwater bite.
