The reds and trout have been biting the bottom of the boat out

Article by: Mark Mayo

Hi Folks,
Happy holiday to all and don’t eat too much. The Rod-Man is on a diet and feels like everyone else should suffer too. Due to the terrible storms, rains and winds the last 3 days and continuing in tomorrow, I don’t know exactly what to say about fishing right now. It will be “pot luck” for sure. But, I can tell you the fishing prior to the storm was fantastic and hopefully will be back to that sooner than later.

Now here’s my report:

Inshore: The reds and trout have been biting the bottom of the boat out. The jetties, the docks, the creeks, the inlets, the marsh banks, all have been holding fish. We have been catching fish on GULP SW, live shrimp, dead mullet.

Nearshore: Some gray trout and miscellaneous bottom fish have been biting. I still expect a run of albacore. The water temperature is still 62-64 degrees, so a lot of fishing is in front of us.

Offshore: I have heard reports of some nice king mackerel catches from 23 to 42 miles out.

Gulfstream: No reports this week, but know the wahoo have been biting well and some bluefin have shown up.

And…..
Let’s Go Fishing!!!
