The snook are really eating this month! The bait has nices out to the flats, snook are in the mangroves and passes. Trout are biting alot too and some redfish are mixed in.

We’ve been catching a ton of big seatrout out on the flats/sandbars and the snook have moved out of their winter homes and into the creeks/mangrove walls near the rivermouth. We’re getting a few redfish mixed in and small blacktip sharks.

These photos are from 2/29/24, the sea trout bite is on fire!!! Great species for kids and those who want to bring home a few meals. We’ve been catching them both with shrimp and live baitfish, fishing sandbars and grassflats with popping corks. The snook have started to really move out of their winter homes. We’ve been catching a good amount of medium sized snook with some slot-sized fish mixed in. Snook season just opened up, it runs for march and april. We’ve been catching a few Redfish mixed-in but not a ton. Lets get out there and bend some rods!!!

Winter is here! New year, new boat and the fish are biting. The winter always brings in a variety of species, right now we’re mainly catching sea-trout, snook, sheepshead, and black/red fish. We’ve also reeled in some bluefish, mackeral, small sharks, pompano, flounder, and other species. For bait we’ve been using live whitebait, threadfins, and some shrimp (particulary on the colder days). We’ve been sticking to the Sanibel area and river mouth, fishing oysterbars, drifting grass flats, rock piles/docks, and have been going into creeks. Tons of dolphins and manatees around. Book a trip today, lets get out there and have some fun!

As the water temperatues are nearing the 80 degree mark the inshore Tarpon Snook and Redfish bite is outstanding! We have also been seeing alot of Dolphins, Manatees and Turtles! The Tarpon have begun their migration north and have been moving through our waters in significant numbers. We have been catching them off the Sanibel/Captiva beaches and drifiting the passes with large blue crabs and live threadfin herring. Snook are fully within their spring cycle of moving towards the beaches and eating as many baitfish as they can. We have been catching good sized and large numbers of Snook & Redfish under docks, rock piles, deep cuts, and mangrove islands.

Lots of variety this past week! The weather is perfect and the fish are biting. We’ve been catching snook, redfish, tripletail, sharks, mackeral, jacks, pompano and even a few gag grouper! Also the dolphins are everywhere and the manatees are starting to move around!
