August Fishing Report

As we experience the high heat of summer, flats fishing has been very good in many parts of the bay – especially where the water is starting to clear. Although some tannic coloring remains, water clarity has improved tremendously and it’s possible to sightfish. If that’s your plan, then you’ll…

January Fishing Report

Well, 2020 sure was a roller coaster of a year and it looks like that trend could continue into the foreseeable future. So maybe it’s a good time to turn off the news and get outside, go fishing, walk on the beach, ride a bike or just take a short trip down the road and make friends with your…
