November 2009
It's November and that it's the time of the year the fish start make thier transition. Redfish, trout, and black drum will start to forage off the small shrimp and crabs on the shallow grass flats. Anglers will find the best sight fishing on calm fall mornings. Most of the mornings will be spent chasing tailing redfish, and black drum in clear water. The last of the tarpon will make thier way south following the bait pods that flooded the area for the past couple of months. You can still find some of the smaller 5-10 pond tarpon in deep creeks along the Indian River Lagoon through out the colder months. Big trout will start to lay up in shallow potholes along the flats, and still suckers for a well placed soft plastic. Snook will fall off to deep water with approching cold fronts, but they will make thier way up to shallow water magroves to feed on small bait fish and shrimp once the day starts to warm the cool flats. On the right days anglers have a great chance of sight fishing these brutes on light tackle in crystal clear water. We have a couple spots left for this month, give us a call and book your trip today.
