red snappers

We had a great one day Red Snapper season catching our limit in about 20 minutes. We had bonus grouper, large triggerfish, and a really nice mutton snapper. Inshore, the black drum are still plentiful as well as schools of redfish. The trout bite has been getting better too. With the new moon, for black drum and redfish I recommend using shrimp or artificial lures. For trout, pigfish has been the best bait. Along the beaches and in the main channels is where the tarpon are holding. They will eat live mullet or croakers as well as artificial baits.

We’re starting to have shrimp boats show up, so it’s a great time to get out and fish behind them. I still have some days available in July and August. You can call me at 386-295-5991 or go right to my website fatfishguideservice.com.
