Launching out of bings landing this morning, myself and my clients where on the hunt for some redfish. Winding through the creeks and flats of the palm coast area, we reach our first spot. The tide is perfect for the spot, low outgoing, I push the boat into position quietly. The setup we are using is a 1/4oz. Jig head with a tail hooked shrimp. Casting the shrimp up current into the hole and letting it sink we wait for the bite. After a few nibbling pinfish, bam we finally get a good bite as it lunges out of the water we realize it’s not a redfish but a snook! We land and quickly photograph this nice snook, and get back to fishing, and waiting, waiting for the next bite, but the bite is slow.

 So we make a move to the next spot, about a ten minute ride in the Hells Bay Boatworks, the tide is now perfect, so I drop the Minn Kota, and power up the Humminbird side imaging, a combination no fish can hide from. As I scan the area I find the fish about ten of them schooled up. We quietly position the boat using the spotlock feature on my trolling motor. We drop a couple shrimp down and almost instantly get bit, and were on! The fish nears the skiff on the line it’s a nice overshot redfish, target acquired, the fish tires out so I net it and leave it in the water as we get ready to take photos. Big fish of any species should be handled with extreme care, as most matured fish are breeders “the future of our fisheries” so it’s very important to handle them with care and respect. After we take a few photos we release the fish back home to be caught again.

We land a few more fish before realizing the a storm is approaching quickly, so we make a run for it. Stopping at the next spot safely out of range of the storm we decide to target some flounder around some rocks with a nice drop off. Slowly dragging small finger mullet on the bottom waiting for the bite is on of my favorite ways to fish for flounder. After catching a few we head back to the ramp and enjoy a tasty lunch at captains bar-b-que!
