As I am writing this report we have Tropical Storm Hanna bearing down on our area, hopefully she won't cause much damage or muddy the waters too much to upset the fish. The schools of baitfish moving in and out of the inlet with the tides seem to get larger every day as they do this time of year. The Big Red Drum have moved into their favorite spawning areas near to the ends of the jetties at the inlet. The largest one we got this week was 33". The smaller ones are starting to patrol the shallower marsh areas where they are ambushing bait from strategic positions along the edges of the grass. There are still a few big Spanish Mackerel working the bait schools at the inlet along with Blue Fish which we will see more of as Fall approaches. The Flounder are biting here and there from the inlet to the waterway and the same goes for Speckled Trout. I am excited about the fantastic Fall fishing that is to come, hopefully we can dodge the storms for the rest of the hurricane season and have many opportunities to Go Fish.
