Fishing Report:

We went from the frigid winter right into summer, bypassing spring. Because of our already high water temperatures the trout are already showing up in the deep grass flats-12-14 foot of water. These trout will readily eat the Berkley Gulp Shrimp on a 1/4 ounce Mission Fishing Jig head. Cobia, mackeral, small grouper, and plenty of sea bass also inhabit these waters. On a recent charter client Steve Bracke caught a 38 inch Cobia and a 5 -6 foot bull shark.

Closer to shore there are plenty of short trout in 2-4 foot of water. This past week, redfish and snook have caught on the oyster bars. They have been caught on topwater plugs and soft plastic jerk baits.

 Dave Davidson at Precision Tackle in Spring Hill, FL will be glad to help you make the right choices for your tackle and Tom will be glad to help with getting your rods and reels ready. http://www.precisiontackleonline.com/Home.html                                                                                               Tightlines,                   Captain Larry Roderick      5/26/10
