Edison and Sam had a great time catching a mixed bak with some sharks, trout, bluefish, mackerel and jacks.

Inshore fishing slowed a bit this week as we had a very cold beginning of the week which dropped lagoon temps more than 10 degrees. While the air temps warmed up later in the week, the water temps stayed chilly. The inlet still had some fish and using live shrimp the snapper, sheepshead and pompano bit pretty good. We also caught jacks, pompano and bluefish on the deeper flats. The trout bite slowed a bit inshore most likely due to drop in water temps. More cold weather coming early this week with lows in the 40s and 50s which will drop water temps some more.

If you’re itching to get out on the water and want to catch some fish, the inlet is the best bet. You may have to weed through some catfish but the snapper, bluefish, pompano and some mackerel should cooperate. If the temps warm up a bit, the snook could start feeding as well but that depends on how cold water temps get.
