Oak Hill Visverslagen

Our day started out calm and with a slow bite. After a short ride we made a couple of stops and the trout started biting. The wind picked up a little and the trout came on as the day progressed. My clients were not going to keep anything at the beginning of the day, but decided to keep two fish so they could have them for lunch. When the fillets were ready they took them to their server at Goodrich seafood restaurant and had them cooked for a great lunch, what a way to end the day.

With the cooling temperatures the redfish are schooling up and all day sightfishing is back! The redfish fishing can often be best in the fall as the redfish begin to group up into schools, that they stay in most of the winter, but have not yet been preassured. Just yesterday we landed double digits of reds in a half day trip on fly. In addition to the best time of year for redfish it can also be excellent for trout fishing. Whether throwing top waters in the morning or fishing to grouped up trout in sand holes it can be a great time of year for trout and the lagoons population has been growing in number and size. Fall is also a great time of year for snook fishing as the cooler tempts bring them out from the tree line to warm up where they can be sightfished. The cooler water and abundance of mullet has them feeding aggressivley before the coming winter. Now is agreat time to book a trip!!

Lots of redfish and black drum in the lagoon

The bite is back! We released four just like this one and took one home for dinner.

March is typically the best month of the year for “gator” trout, or trout being over 24”. We are already cracking a few big, toothy, yellow mouthed, trout and are seeing even more as they can be one of the more challanging sightfishibg targets. A rewarding challange, as when everything goes right, they feed with a determined aggression. As for the Mosquito Lagoon’s famous redfishing, we continue to visit schools of up to a 100 fish, not the easiest to catch but a Nat Geo type of spectacle. Other flats are offereing spread out fish for all day entertainment. Wether you want to fly fish, sight fish with artificials, throw too waters in the morning, or soak bait, spring is one if the best times of the year for all day flats fishing.
