Everglades Fishing – Report for March 17th

This week fishing in The Everglades was good, the weather is really warming up and the fish were on the bite. Early in the day we bounced Riptide jigs slowly along the bottom of the deep passes for Trout. Most of the Trout were in the 20-24 inch range. The Redfish have also been quite active, going for live shrimp under a popping cork on the rising tide.

With the weather continuing to get warmer the fishing should keep getting better.

March 12th Fishing Report

With the weather in the Everglades still holding warm and sunny we decided to fish for snook and redfish using plugs and jigs. With a rising tide we decided to work the boat along a beach front full of blown down trees and snags and within minutes scored with a nice 35 inch snook. As ther morning went on the snook continued to bite along with some nice redfish. This time of year in the everglades with the weather getting warmer and warmer is a great time to fish.
