Summer Fishing Heats Up in the Grass Flats and Backwaters
July is in full swing in Homosassa, and the fishing is as lively as ever across the flats, creeks, and nearshore waters. Early mornings have been producing solid numbers of redfish and snook, especially on moving tides. These inshore favorites are hugging mangrove edges and oyster bars, and they’re responding well to live shrimp, cut mullet, and topwater plugs just after sunrise. The grass flats are holding plenty of spotted sea trout, especially in 3 to 5 feet of water with good eelgrass. Anglers drifting the flats with soft plastics and popping cork rigs are finding consistent success, along with the occasional surprise Spanish mackerel or jack crevalle. As the sun rises, switching to deeper edges and sand holes near the flats can keep the bite going. Scallop season is also in full swing, bringing more traffic to the area—but the fishing hasn’t slowed down. Those willing to work around the crowds are still hooking into black drum and mangrove snapper near docks and rocky structures. Tarpon have thinned out since their peak in June, but a few remain around the river mouths and inshore channels. Whether you're chasing inshore gamefish or cruising out for scallops, July in Homosassa offers a little something for everyone—just be sure to beat the heat and get on the water early.

April in Weeki Wachee is a prime time for inshore fishing, with the Spotted seatrout and Redfish (Red Drum) moving in closer to feed. We had clear conditions throughout the day, perfect for targeting these hard-fighting inshore species. As soon as we got our lines in the water, the action started. We worked the flats using a mix of jigging and trolling, covering different depths to find the fish. It wasn't long before Scott hooked into a nice Spotted seatrout, putting up a great fight before we got it in the boat. A little while later, he set the hook hard on a solid Redfish that made some powerful runs, but he kept steady pressure and landed it. The bite stayed consistent, and we had a blast working different spots and techniques to dial in on the feeding fish. The great thing about these inshore trips is the constant action. You never know what's going to smash your bait or lure next - could be a feisty trout, a bruiser redfish, or even something else. That's what keeps us coming back, that thrill of the unknown.

Inshore Fishing Thrills in Weeki Wachee, FL
A Thrilling Afternoon of Inshore Fishing in Weeki Wachee, FL What a day we had out on the water in Weeki Wachee, FL! I met up with Emmett and the crew at the Bayport Park Boat Ramp for our 4-Hour PM Fishing Charter, and the conditions were looking great. The skies were clear, and while we had some rain earlier, it had cleared up by the time we hit the water. With April being a prime time for inshore fishing around these parts, I knew we were in for an exciting afternoon. As we made our way out, I rigged up the rods with a variety of lures and bait, getting everyone ready to target some of the incredible inshore species that call these waters home. We started off by working some deeper channels and structure, mixing up our presentation with jigging, trolling, and heavy and light tackle techniques. It didn't take long before Emmett's rod bent over, and he was into a nice Common Snook! That fish put up a fantastic fight, stripping drag and jumping clear of the water, but Emmett kept his cool and landed it with a big smile. The rest of the crew soon followed suit, each of us hooking into some feisty Snook as we moved around, looking for the most active feeding zones. By the time the afternoon started to wind down, we'd managed to land a solid handful of those hard-charging Snook, putting on a heck of a show. Even though the rain had cleared out, the overcast skies and calm winds kept things comfortable all day long. Between the great fishing action and the relaxed, easygoing vibe on the boat, it was just one of those trips that leaves you with a big smile on your face.

"Reel in the Thrills: A Snook-Filled Adventure on the Weeki Wachee"
We had a great day out on the water with my buddy Jeff Tant, running a Half Day Trip (AM) down in the Weeki Wachee area. March is a prime time for fishing in these parts, with the Common snook starting to really fire up as the weather warms up. We met up at the launch point in Weeki Wachee early that morning, got our gear ready, and headed out into the clear, calm conditions. As soon as we hit the water, the fish started biting. We tried a mix of jigging, trolling, and both light and heavy tackle, working different parts of the spring-fed river system to find where the snook were hanging out. It didn't take long before Jeff's rod bent over hard—he set the hook and was into a nice fish. After a solid battle, he landed a healthy Common snook, a great start to the day. We kept at it, boat-side chumming and working different lures and live baits, and the action just kept getting better. Over the course of the morning, we landed a bunch more snook, putting some quality fish in the boat. The best part was just being out on the water, enjoying the beautiful spring conditions and great company. Even when we weren't hooked up, it was just a pleasure to be out there, taking in the scenery and relishing the peaceful vibe of the river.

Spectacular Seatrout, Drum & Sheepshead: A Weeki Wachee Fishing Frenzy
Alright folks, let me tell you about the epic day we had out on the water with Jason Curtis on our Fishing Charters Homosassa Florida | 8 Hour Charter. It was a picture-perfect day - the kind that makes you just want to grab a rod and soak it all in. The weather was spot on, the water looked great, and we were all fired up to see what the Weeki Wachee fishery had in store for us. As soon as we hit the water, the action started heating up. The Spotted seatrout were really on the feed, smashing our baits as soon as they hit the surface. We had a blast working different spots and techniques to keep them coming. But that was just the start - before long, we had hooked into some nice Black drum and Sheepshead too. These fish put up one heck of a fight, keeping us on our toes and the adrenaline pumping. The variety of species we encountered really made the day special. One minute we'd be battling a feisty Spotted seatrout, the next a bruiser Black drum would have us scrambling. It kept us on our toes, but that's what makes inshore fishing so much fun - you never know what's going to be on the other end of the line. And with the great conditions we had, it was just an all-around awesome time out there. If you're looking to experience some of the best inshore fishing around, you've gotta check out our Fishing Charters Homosassa Florida | 8 Hour Charter. Whether you're after Spotted seatrout, Black drum, Sheepshead, or anything else swimming in these Weeki Wachee waters, we'll put you on the fish and make sure you have a blast doing it. This is the kind of day on the water that creates memories that last a lifetime. So what are you waiting for? Book your spot today and let's get out there and SEA the bay!
