Inshore and river fishing has been outstanding the last 2 weeks. Summertime fishing in the backwater creek systems can be challenging this time of year due to massive amounts of baitfish, crabs and shrimp. Even with the abundance of bait, the redfish have settled into more of an ambush mode, rather than chasing bait throughout the creeks. This make catching them easier. Cory S and two buddies had 15 Redfish on one small mud flat drop- off last week. This was an impressive school of Redfish with the smallest fish measuring 25" and two fish were over 28", great fighters.

I have also been catching more Flounder recently. Usually 4 or 5 each trip using mud minnows on jig heads
