Sunrise came bright and early at 6:01 AM, and you’ve got daylight till sunset at 8:03 PM—plenty of time to wet a line, chase your limit, and soak in a full day on the water. We’re well into the summer swing, with water temps steady around 80 degrees and the weather hot and humid, accented by light Gulf breezes. Watch the sky this afternoon—NOAA keeps reminding us it’s an active hurricane season, and those pop-up summer storms can roll through fast.
Tide-wise, we have a moderate outgoing tide this morning, which means those first couple hours after dawn are prime time for the bite, especially on topwater. That early falling water is always money for specks and reds staging along the grass edges and oyster points.
Fish activity is nothing short of outstanding right now. Speckled trout are stacked up thick from Shell Beach through Hopedale east to Breton Sound—anglers are reporting easy limits, mostly early before the heat sets in. Redfish are cruising shallow grass and cut banks, especially when that tide starts dropping. Flounder—always the bonus—are showing up in the marsh drains, particularly for folks dragging soft plastics slow along the bottom.
Offshore, the federally permitted snapper boats kicked off their season June 1, and it’s a bonanza: lots of red snapper, some chunky late-season cobia, and even a few big tripletail hanging under floating debris. Local guides like Captain Mike Callahan say now’s the time to get after those bigger fish—live croakers and pogies are the top baits offshore.
When it comes to lures, the classics are killing it. Topwater action with the MirrOlure She Dog is explosive in the early hours, especially for trout and redfish along the grass and oyster bars. For subsurface, Matrix Shad soft plastics on 1/4-ounce jigheads in glow or chartreuse are hard to beat as the sun climbs. If you prefer hardware, ‘walk the dog’ style baits and spinnerbaits—especially in stained water—are pulling strikes all over the marsh, according to guides at Cajun Fishing Adventures. Offshore, crankbaits fished at the right depth (match your bill to the water column) are working well for bigger predators.
Top baits for live fishing? Shrimp remains king for inshore, either free-lined or under a popping cork. Offshore boats are loading up on frisky croakers and pogies.
For hot spots, it’s hard to beat Shell Beach and Hopedale this time of year, with reports of big trout and heavy redfish action. If you’re chasing snapper, look for live bottom structure off the Chandeleur Islands or near the rigs east of Venice. For something different, poke around the barrier islands and keep an eye out for floating grass or debris—tripletail have been a pleasant surprise for several crews this week.
Remember, the bite is hottest early and again at dusk—don’t waste those golden hours. And as always, be courteous out there, give fellow anglers room, and don’t be afraid to try new water if a spot gets crowded.
