Spring Time Fishing!

Fishing along the Intracoastal waterway and within backwater marsh is on an epic level.
Perfect air and water temperatures have the red fish and speckled trout fired up in big numbers.
Redfish will be schooled up throughout the next few months along with big spawning speckled trout.

Jacksonville Light Tackle Fishing

We are in our best time of the season for schooling redfish and trout in the backwater marsh.

Clear, cool water combined with wintertime low tides have the fish schooled up in big numbers. 

Sight fishing for mid and upper slot redfish is a favorite this time of year.

Inshore and Backwater Fishing. Best time of the year!

 Redfish and Trout are schooled up in the creeks and marsh. November to April are the best months for inshore and backwater fishing.Jacksonville, Amelia Island and St Augustine locations will provide double digit numbers of redfish, trout and black drum.

Capt. Ron Schurr has been taking good numbers of heavy sea trout in the lower St. Johns River and the Intracoastal Waterway south to St. Augustine. He recommends anglers work deep drop-offs, points and docks during hard-running tide phases. Lipped diving plugs, Rapala “Skitter Walk” top-water plugs and live mullet take trout. Redfish also are on deep-water ledges and in the Intracoastal.

Jacksonville Winter/Spring report

Backwater fishing has been fired up the past 3 months. Redfish, flounder and sea trout are very abundant in the tidal creeks. I have been doing very well using jigs and gulp shrimp.
