Salt water fishermen rejoice because it is time to catch cobia. Cobia fishermen know the wait is worth the reward because cobia is the best tasting fish that swims. The best baits are cut bait. Finger mullet and lots of patience.

The flounder fishing is heating up. Plus the Spanish mackerel and Blues are hitting along the shore line.

Fresh water fishing is good – the bass are hitting spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and plastic worms rigged wacky style. The bluegill are biting on crickets, meal worms, and night crawlers.  The yellow perch and crappie are good on minnows. 

Remember to take a kid fishing and pick up your trash.

It’s springtime and most of the fish are thinking about reproducing.  And like most people, fish think it’s fun to eat before during and after the act.  With that said, the largemouth bass are bedding or protecting their kids.  Plastic worms, creature baits and bluegill imitation lures are great artificial baits.  The crappie are hitting on minnows, maribou jigs and road runners.  the blue gill and bream are hitting on crickets, worms and beetle spins.  The Catfish are eating everything from cut bait to chicken livers.

Salt water fishing is a little slow except for offshore fishing.  Some redfish are being caught inshore, plus stripers and sea mullet.

Remember to take a kid fishing and pick up your trash.  It’s ok to call in sick and go fishing.
