Summer time Action

This past week we have been treated to some outstanding inshore fishing. I look forward to summertime fishing around the Naples and Marco Island areas, as game fish (snook, tarpon, redfish , sea trout , jacks , Spanish mackerel) congregate around the passes and beaches. Live bait has been the best method in getting big numbers of fish to the boat. Small Pilchards or mullet have been plentiful and with a few throws of the cast net your live well should be blacked out! Artificials (top water plugs) have been great fun at first light. Zara spooks or skitter walks have been our go to plugs. The weight of these plugs allows you to make exceptionally long cast to cover more water. Look for fish to trailer the plug for a few feet or they might just blow that plug straight out of the water. Get out early and beat the heat ! See yah out there ! Capt.
