Things are a bit hit or miss with the weather being the way it is as of late. Fishing the rivers and the Cape towards Flamingo has produced Tarpon however they are not consistent by any means. The backcountry has been the better area to fish. The usual Trout and Snook haven’t been too affected by the conditions. They aren’t as frequent as when the weather is nice, but they are there for anglers hitting the water. Search the passes and the points for the best bite.

INSHORE – The last week has been interesting I have either fished North Biscayne Bay, Government Cut or Holiday Park for Bass. The Trout (Seatrout, Spotted) fishing has been really good for bigger Trout in the 22 to 25 inch range. The Tarpon are around and they seemed to bite late the one night I was out. The Cut always produces something if you drop a Shrimp to the bottom. Mangrove Snappers, Yellowtails, Hog Snappers, Mutton Snappers, Spanish Hogfish and Groupers (Grouper, Gag & Snapper, Gray & Snapper, Yellowtail & Snapper, Mutton & Hogfish) are the by catch while waiting on Tarpon.

Everglades City Fishing Report
INSHORE – There hasn’t been a whole lot of action from the area this week. That being said, there are still plenty of your typical early Spring fish biting. Redfish, Trout and Snook have all been caught as they move back into their Winter patterns with the dropping temperature. If you are heading out with live bait, Shrimp has been the key for all of them. Alternatively, Topwaters are working well for Snook and Gray Fluke Lures are best for Reds. We hope to see this heat up.

Everglades City Fishing Report
INSHORE – There has been a lot of windy days this month so it’s a good thing the Everglades have lots of places to hide. Outgoing tides have been nice enough to get the Tarpon biting around passes on live Mullet. The Snook bite has been hot out of Chokoloskee on both live bait and artificials. Oyster bars, snags and bays have been good spots for not only Snook, but Redfish and some Drum too. Shrimp and Pilchards are good baits to have with you are fishing from Flamingo up to Everglades City. Trout fishing has been productive from Pavillion South to Lostmans river on Shrimp under a cork or free-lined Pilchards.
OFFSHORE – There were quite a few windy days that made work out of the fishing. King Mackerel were most consistently caught offshore in the Gulf. Bottom structures are producing Cobia and Amberjack along with a variety of Snappers. Off of Chokoloskee, heavy chumming will help with the Yellowtail and Mangrove Snapper. Nearshore structures have continued to produce Sheepshead while Tripletail are still caught on the Crab buoys. If you can make it too far out, you can also pick up some mixed Bluefish, Spanish Mackerel and Jack Crevalle. There’s even some Blacktip and Sandbar sharks in the Gulf.

Everglades City Fishing Report
INSHORE – Inshore fishing in the Glades is still producing in sheltered areas. We are seeing a good mix of Snook, Redfish and Trout throughout Flamingo to Everglades City. Snook have been sticking closer to shore this week although they can also be found in the backcountry. A variety of sizes have turned up however there are plenty of keepers, especially in creeks containing warmer water. Redfish are a bit more selective this week. The morning rising tide is holding the best fish, otherwise they seem a bit scattered. Trout on the other hand seem to be just about everywhere. Anglers are even finding them in the grass beds about a mile offshore. With all the recent wind it has been a bit tough to hit the water but when you can find a calm weather window they’ll be there waiting.
