St. Augustine - Saltwater Fishing Report
The hot bite that started in February that spilled into March has shown no signs of slowing down into April. Clients this week have been lucky enough to experience large schools of Redfish that are willing to eat artificial or live bait that is PROPERLY PRESENTED. Leading the schools and approaching with stealth was the key to pulling out Redfish from the larger schools.
Catching Reds from smaller schools was a whole different ball game this week. Boat position was the key in order to keep the small school of Reds pinned between the skiff and an oyster bar. A little noise was actually the key to success by using a little technique called "bumping" the fish and "bouncing" the school back and forth catching them in transition.
