With fall apon us the mullet schools have moved in to the Lagoon system in great numbers. I have been catching great numbers of Trout and Redfish mixed in with these bait pods in the early morning using topwater and twitch baits then moving to a Auqa Dream Spoon as the sun starts to rise. By mid morning I have been locating alot of Redfish tailing in the shallow grass and cruising shorelines in search of new feeding oppotunities. These fish have been crushing spoons,soft plastics and live shrimp when presented with a well placed cast. The large mature Redfish can be found in the inlets and off the beaches this time of year to spawn. They can be caught using anything from soft plastics, cut bait and a veraity of live bait fished near the bottom where the current is not as strong. This is also a great time of year to target Flounder as they are moving inshore to spawn they can be caught from the ICW through the bacwaters on the mud and sand bottom using soft plastics and live bait. Good luck and be safe. Capt Patrick Rood www.spotntailcharters.com (386)566-1394
