Another slow gigging trip but a stop at the Red hole at day break before heading home was a nice ending to 3 hours of pushing the boat around looking for Flounder…

I am certain that the Flounder are just not moved in good yet. Sometimes things are early and sometimes they are late and I'm hoping the Flounder are late!

Even though we have been able to find some decent Flounder so far the numbers just haven't been right. Usually buy now I have had some double digit nights but it has been a struggle to find some decent Flounder to stick.

The Trout bite is starting to get better. I have had some Trout in the 4 pound range in the last week along with some Jacks and Blue fish. The reds are still feeding strong in the creeks and there are plenty of nice size ones.

Area Reporting: Jacksonville, North East Florida

Bio: Being a native of Northeast Florida I have enjoyed the excellent fishing and wildlife this area has to offer. I have been fishing the Jacksonville Florida area over 30 years with many a memorable fishing trip starting when I was a kid. We are in between and only minutes away from Amelia Island and St. Augustine, we can enjoy the fishing any direction. From downtown to the mouth of the ocean and all the back water in between.
