Early Summer Fishing-Jacksonville style

The inshore backwater creeks and tidal flats have been incredible for big numbers of hard fighting redfish. Topwater plugs in the early morning and evening lower light conditions are getting crushed by huge redfish and speckled trout. Lots of tasty flounder each trip as well. Cobia and sharks are thick along the beaches, inlet and nearshore waters. Scouting around the bait pods, migrating Manta Rays and behind the shrimp boats is an awesome way to sight fish these bruisers. {%image_id=38657%} {%image_id=38656%}
