Trip Summary

I've been a little late on my March fishing report but as everyone knows the world has been a little crazy lately. March started off pretty solid with bookings but because of all this pandemic, we've suffered quite a few cancellations in the last week and up through April. Other than that the fishing has been pretty darn good. The weather was pretty harsh on us at the beginning of the month which slowed the bite quite a bit. In the last week or so the weather has been great and the bite has turned on again. We've been catching big snook and big redfish with bluefish and jack crevalle in the mix. A lot of my customers have been fortunate enough to get themselves some solid slot snook to bring home as well. The lagoon has been a little slow with a few small snook and reds. When it's to windy everywhere else we've been heading up Sebastian River catching some monster jack crevalle on light tackle. The tarpon should start showing up in Sebastian River here in the next couple weeks. We've been able to get offshore a few times this month and every trip has been very productive. We're catching numerous amounts of fish from red snapper, mangrove snapper, lane snapper, kingfish, and cobia. The cobia haven't made there way to Sebastian just yet. We've caught a few out on the reefs but from what I've heard they're hitting them good up by Port Canaveral right now. I have a lot of openings in April right now so give us call. As long as the gas stations stay open, Whatever Turns U On Fishing Charters will be running strong.

Spring Break Time
Spring Break Time
Marzo 11, 2024
It's coming into spring break time, so we'll have limited spots available. We get booked up pretty quick this time of year. Let's start off with the weather, we'll it's been hit or miss as usual. It's been windy, rainy, and cold most of February. March should be warming up a bit though. When the days are available offshore trips have been very productive. We've had a few nice days in the last couple weeks, so last minute decisions to run out have paid off. The snapper bite has been amazing. Nice sized mangrove and lane snapper, triggerfish, sheepshead, pompano, bluefish, and kingfish, along with an occasional cobia have all been taking the bait. Inshore on the other hand has been hit or miss. The heavy winds have been making the lagoon very dirty. With dirty water makes it almost impossible to site fish anything unless they're active on top. The cold fronts and heavy winds have put a damper on most days but we're managing. The snook bite at the inlet has been tough as well. There's been a solid 10 degree difference in water temps from the ocean side to the river side. One day is hot the next day is not. The inlet has been holding a decent amount of jack crevalle which offer an awesome fight and there has been some occasional monster bluefish around. There's been a good number of blacktip and spinner sharks being caught along the beach and nearshore reefs. When mother nature allows us, we're having good luck on the nearshore reefs catching weakfish and lane snapper. The big manta rays have started to show up outside the inlet and if you're lucky they'll have some cobia tagging along with them looking for an easy meal. Bowfishing has been excellent at night. We've found some solid spots in one of the lakes that offers some fantastic trips. Tons of tilapia everywhere you look, some customers are getting upwards of 300 shots a night. The day trips are ok, but nighttime is where it's at for bowfishing out here.
