The fishing has been really good and the very large schools of Black Drum and Redfish are roaming the flats. The Black Drum can be caught on shrimp and Gulp shrimp. The redfish have been hitting top water plugs early and the jerk baits, Gulp shrimp and the MirrOlure MR17 has been working.

If you want to catch a 'Slobberknocker" Redfish you will need live or cut pinfish and mullet. There are 3 or 4 schools we have been working and a little patience will produce results.

I am currently booking for April so check out my website or call me at 407-405-0819.
