Bayport. FL June Fishing Report
The fishing has been really good with Real Shallow fishin charters. The Redfish bite has been good as you can see we are getting into some big ones. Join up for a charter today,, were fishing for Redfish, Sea Trout and much more on the gulf of Mexico
/filters:strip_exif()/users/0437fd3c-c9d7-432e-bb0a-d0ec0ebb52cb/images/80fdce82-4688-4e14-bd1e-f190dbadcf58.jpg)
Great snook bite.
The snook bite is really heating up. Snook like the warmer water during the summer months. You can target snook a few different ways, but a live green back is the best way. To catch green backs you need to get an early start. Find some grassy areas in about 5/6 ft of water right at sunrise .Use purina fish food, mix it with water until its thick like oatmeal. Slowly throw little balls of it and get the chum slick rolling infront of your boat. It usually takes about 20 minutes out of Bayport Florida to get them close to the boat. Throw a heavy 10 or 12 foor net and you should have some success. Once you have the bait of choice, start fishing the middlw of the incoming tide neae mangrove island or the rocky points. Hope this info helps. be safe and tight lines everyone.

Half day trip
Great bite on the incoming tide. We used live bait along the mangrove lines today and the snook and redfish bite was hott. Find the jumping mullet and you will find the fish. Tight lines yal.

I have been out with Gary a couple times. Learned a lot to help me catch more fish in the future. We caught lots of fish even when those around us didn't. Gary knows how to find fish, show you a great time, and make you a better fisherman.
