Grouper season for Florida’s Atlantic waters officially opened May 1 and will remain open until Jan. 1, 2013.
The best time to fish now is early morning around sunrise, or late evening around dusk.
For this week’s column, we’re taking a trip away from Florida and going on a fishing expedition in the beautiful Bahamas.
So far, the month of March has lived up to its reputation of coming in like a lion.
It’s time to clean the dust off those top-water plugs that have been sitting in your tackle box all winter.
The new regulations for spotted sea trout and redfish have gone into effect.
We’ve had some great weather this winter here in Flagler County.
Fishing activity has been the best in recent memory; so make a New Year’s resolution and start fishing more.
As we come to the end of another fishing year, I hope all of your fishing dreams came true in 2011.
