Snook, Redfish, Trout… OH MY! It has been a good week on the water for some quality fish. The weather has cooperated for the most part with gentle breezes and little or no rain early and the water looks good for this time of year.
Several redfish were caught this week which was nice since they have been somewhat scarce. Lots of trout around, some of them over 20 inches.
The catch of the week was a 37” snook that went for a Saltwater Assassin jig head and an Exude RT slug in about 2 foot of water.
Some of the other guides told me they have been scoring on mangrove snapper, bluefish, and mackerel. The increase in quality fish in our area could be the result of poor water quality South of us. The fish population might be coming our way to live in cleaner water.
