Offshore fishing this time of year in the Gulf of Mexico can be fantastic. From 5-30 miles into the Gulf, we have a mix of artificial reefs, and ledges, along with "live bottom" out "deeper". In the deeper water,big red grouper are the target species, while we also snapper fish in these areas too. Mixed bags of lanes, yellow tail, and mangroves make up the common snapper species offshore. It's a fun enjoyable experience, to catch your own fresh fish dinner for that evening. It's a fantastic time to be fishing in South West Florida!

The rain in the month of August has started to cool the inshore water temperature. That has triggered the snook to start transitioning from their summer spawning groups of 100+ fish, to start breaking up and moving into fall haunts, for a influx of bait and cooler water temps, as the days begin to get shorter. We are already starting to see schools of redfish gathering on our grass flats inshore. On some of these big water summer tides, you can find reds gathering in big groups under some mangrove shorelines, lots of "chumming" will get them to come out. For a late summer and early fall bite, it's a fun time to be fishing in South West Florida!
