A school of Ladyfish provided us some fun light tackle action on Friday morning as we found a school feeding on baitfish on the edge of a current rip. We spent the rest of the morning fishing for Redfish. Spinnerbaits seemed to be the bait of the day.

Saturday, we started out the day catching some Bluefish and Speckled Trout. Live bait seemed to be the bait of choice first thing in the morning. As the day heated up, we switched up to artificials and live bait and continued to catch fish. The redfish bite wasn't as good on Saturday, but the Speckled Trout and Bluefish kept us busy.

Offshore, the King Mackerel bite is really good and the Mahi are getting closer to the beach. I saw a nice 20lb Bull Mahi that was caught on Saturday as well as some nice King Mackerel. The Spanish Mackerel bite has been one of the best that we have had in years.

As always, Tight lines!!!!
