Hot fishing can still be Hot
Fishing right now can still be good even in the hot weather. There are certain tactics to use, first think about going in the early mornings or in the evenings before sunset. The fish are a lot like us, when it gets hot they look for cooler areas to be more comfortable. Look in shaded areas like around mangrove trees or even bushes close to the shore, also run a little to deeper waters. The trout have seemed to be in the 10 ft waters off our coast right now, with them you can still pick up sharks, seabass, jacks, cobia and other more near shore species. All theses fish can be caught with live baits, cutbaits or artificial. The redfish will be schooling up real soon, look for them in and around the oyster beads and as always, look for the jumping mullets. When the mullet are happy, usually the redfish are too. The scallops are still thick off the whole Nature Coast, you can find them in the 6-10 waters. The best time to look for them is to schedule your trip an hour or so before the low tide. This will make the trip a lot more comfortable, you don't have to dive down as far and fight the current. Look for the darker grass areas and they will be there. Good luck and good fishing !
