Inshore
We have been Catching Sea Trout, Snook, and Redfish. With Sea Trout being the main targeted species. We been catching them on free lined live white bait and sometimes shrimp. And artificial jigs in greens and rootbeer colors with a 1/8 oz. jig head. We have been catch and releasing the Sea Trout after catching our limit. Trying not to touch the fish or us a net to not to knock the slime off. This gives the Sea Trout a better chance for servival. We been catching Snook on large white bait, on the last of a incoming tide and the first of a out going tide, as long as there is good water movement. Snook season is closed so we are practicing catch and release (us Captain's call this job security) LOL after photos are take. And make sure the fish are revived in good shape to fight another day. The redfish we have been catching on live shrimp and artificial shrimps like the D.O.A. and or the Gulp shrimps in the natural and new penny colors. This Big Snook ate a white bait for the Mayor of Port Richey, Florida. And Capt. Tom with a Sea Trout as long as your arm.
