Hernando Beach - Saltwater Fishing Report
BRRRRRRR! With this sudden jolt of arctic air to our area, angler need to start adjusting their tactics in order to locate fish. How you fish and where you fish are very important throughout winter.
The many creeks, rivers, and bayous near Hernando Beach are holding good numbers of a variety species of fish right now. These areas have many springs that pump out thousands of gallons of 72-74 degree water daily. These springs and the areas near by is where species like trout, black drum, sheep head, red fish, pompano, jack crevalle, lots of lady fish, flounder, snook, mangrove snapper, and even some resident tarpon will call home the next few months.
How you fish these areas is very important and can make the difference in putting fish in the cooler. The slower the better is my rule in cooler conditions. If you think your fishing slow then slow it down even more. This goes for subsurface to top water. A white 3" GULP on a 1/8 ounce jig has been my go to bait on recent trips. Keep this bait near the bottom and pop it SLOWLY across the bottom. This technique is catching good numbers of the species mentioned above. The trout have been big, but the reds are small on average.
This time of year I often start using shrimp. Shrimp are easier to use during winter because there are less pin fish around to steal your offering. This gives inshore winter species like mangrove snapper, sheep head, and black drum a chance to bend a rod. Target the deeper holes near structure and don't be surprised if a occasional red or flounder are found in these areas.
Good luck out there and tight lines!
