We have been fishing fishing around structure and doing well with mid size redfish, black drum, and sheepshead. Around high tide we have been catching good numbers of sea trout, and ladyfish. To pass the time during the slack tides we have been fishing around front beach and landing some large sharks in the 5-6 ft range with fresh bait.
