Hi Folks,
The past week has seen the fishing really taking off. We have had good catches of bonito, bluefish, red and black drum and more. As the weather continues its spring progress, more and more fish will be in the area.
Now here’s my report:
Inshore: Red and black drum are still biting on the falling tide. Fresh shrimp or GULP fished on a carolina rig have both produced fish. The red’s are biting, but look for the bite to improve quickly over the next few days.
Near shore: Bluefish and gray trout continue to bite well at the 3 and 5 mile AR’s. Also, and very important are the good numbers of Atlantic bonito we are catching. Yesterday we had a catch of several bluefish and six bonito in right at two hours. We have caught them trolling slow with Yozuri Crystal Minnow Deep Divers and with jigging spoons, either sight casting or deep jigging.
Offshore: King mackerel continue to hold in the 23 to 35 mile areas. I am getting many reports of folks limiting out EARLY.
Gulfstream: The wahoo bite is strong. Yellowfin are starting to bite well.
FYI: The season is really starting to get busy. If you do not receive a weekly report in your email, please check my fishing reports page: http://www.rodmancharters.com/fishingreports/I will do my best to at least post a report here weekly. And you can always check this page and the Photo Gallery for the latest photos.
The pictures tell only part of the story. Come join us for a great day of fishing fun.
Let’s Go Fishing!!!
