While most of the windy days are few and far in between, we still have a few days and passing fronts that can make for challenging days on the water. When the wind lays down we are often gretted with tailers in very shallow water and they are eagerly taking a well placed soft plastic or Fly, your choice! When the wind is up a bit we are fishing areas that are holding fish and live and or dead baits will produce fish when sight casting is impossible. Average days are yeilding multiple opportunities at slot sized fish with a few fish to 34 inches mixed in. Black drum as well as some very nice gator trout have been landed this past week and should continue to bite with the current conditions. In a few weeks we can expect to have better conditions daily and the spring mullet run will send most of the fish on a feeding frenzy aggressively attacking topwater lures and larger jerk baits on light tackle. The Fly angler can look foward to tailing fish on the flats with multiple opportunities in a morning or evening trip. Crab and shrimp patterns have been taking the most fish in the past few weeks but baitfish patterns will slowly take over.
