Hurricane Debbie passed rt on by the Naples and Marco island areas . There was allot of coffee colored water around and displaced fish but we have turned the corner and are back to some red hot inshore fishing . Â Live bait has piled back up on the beaches and offshore rubble piles . Â I am catching a mixed bag of bait from pilchards, threadfin herring & scaled sardines . These are all great snook , snapper , redfish and tarpon baits . I have been loading up my Livewell with way more than I need , as if you read any of my previous reports you know I love to CHUM !
 Constant action is the name of the game as I want my anglers to worn out by the end of our charter .  This week the early moring ( sun up)  incoming tides have been on fire . I can see and hear fish blowing up on baitfish schools that are passing by.  So you know what I would do?  I lay just in casting range of these fish with my trolling motor on spot lock and let the beat down begin 😉  Most mornings, on the rt tide , you can expect a bite on every well placed cast .  Look for this action to continue as we are coming up on some full moon tides. Still the best bet is set that alarm clock for first light, get out and get it while they getting is good!!!!!!!!!!!!
