26 MAR 2025 · Howdy folks, Artificial Lure here with your Gulf Coast fishin' report for March 26, 2025. Sun's comin' up at 7:29 AM and settin' at 7:44 PM, givin' us plenty of daylight to wet our lines. Weather's lookin' mighty fine today - partly cloudy with a high of 78°F and a light breeze from the southeast. Tides are runnin' low around 5:32 AM and 5:21 PM, with highs near 12:19 PM and 10:25 PM.
Let me tell ya, the fish have been bitin' like crazy lately! Redfish are thick as thieves in the shallows, especially around oyster bars and mangroves. We've been seein' some real gators in the 5-7 pound range. Trout are schoolin' up nice on the grass flats, and snook are startin' to move out of the backwaters and onto the beaches - keep an eye out for 'em around the passes.
Offshore, cobia season is in full swing! They've been showin' up in good numbers, with some anglers reportin' catches over 50 pounds. King mackerel are also makin' their presence known, with some early arrivals in the 40+ pound range.
For bait, live shrimp and pinfish are always a safe bet, but if you're throwin' artificials, you can't go wrong with a gold spoon or a white paddletail on a 1/4 oz jighead. Topwater action's been hot in the early mornin' - try a Zara Spook or a Skitterwalk for some explosive strikes. For you cobia hunters, a Berkley Gulp! Eel in new penny color on a jighead has been workin' wonders.
If you're lookin' for some hot spots, I'd recommend checkin' out Redfish Pass or Captiva Pass. The jetties have been holdin' some nice fish. For you inshore folks, Ding Darling on Sanibel's been producin' well, especially on the outgoing tide.
Remember, it's catch and release only for snook right now, and make sure you're usin' circle hooks if you're fishin' with live bait. Tight lines, y'all, and don't forget your sunscreen!

24 MAR 2025 · Hey there, folks! Artificial Lure here with your Gulf Coast Florida fishing report for March 24, 2025. Let me tell ya, it's shaping up to be a beautiful day out on the water!
First off, the tides are looking pretty favorable today. We've got a low tide around 3:50 AM and a high tide coming in at 7:06 PM. The water's been rising steadily, which should get those fish moving and feeding.
Now, let's talk weather. We're looking at partly cloudy skies with temperatures in the mid-70s. The sun's gonna rise at 7:31 AM and set at 7:42 PM, giving us a solid 12 hours of daylight to work with. Winds are light and variable, so it should be smooth sailing out there.
As for the fish, they've been biting like crazy lately! Redfish, speckled trout, and snook have been the stars of the show in the inshore waters. We've been seeing some nice catches around the grass flats and mangrove shorelines. Offshore, folks have been hooking into some respectable grouper and snapper.
If you're wondering what to throw, I've got a few recommendations for ya. For inshore fishing, you can't go wrong with a soft plastic jerkbait in white or rootbeer color. Paddletail swimbaits have also been working wonders, especially in the Slam Shady color. Don't forget about topwater lures early in the morning – nothing beats the excitement of a big trout smashing a walk-the-dog style plug!
For you live bait enthusiasts, shrimp are always a safe bet. But if you can get your hands on some pilchards or pinfish, you'll be in business.
Now, let me give you a couple of hot spots to check out. The flats around Steinhatchee have been on fire lately, with anglers reporting limits of trout and some nice slot-sized reds. If you're looking to go a bit deeper, the nearshore reefs off Destin have been producing some quality grouper and snapper.
Remember, folks, the key to success is to match your lure or bait to what the fish are naturally feeding on. Keep an eye out for bait schools and bird activity – that's where the action is!
Well, that about wraps it up for today's report. Get out there, wet a line, and make some memories. This is Artificial Lure signing off – tight lines, y'all!

23 MAR 2025 · Hey y'all, Artificial Lure here with your Gulf Coast fishin' report for March 23, 2025. Sun's up at 7:37 AM and settin' at 7:40 PM, givin' us plenty of daylight to wet our lines.
Weather's lookin' mighty fine today - partly cloudy with a high near 78°F and a light southeast breeze. Tides are runnin' low around 6:50 AM and 7:39 PM, with highs mid-day and just before midnight.
Now let me tell ya, the fish have been bitin' like crazy lately! Redfish are thick as thieves in the shallows, especially 'round oyster bars and mangroves. We've been seein' some real gators in the 5-7 pound range. Trout are schoolin' up nice on the grass flats too. Snook are startin' to move out of the backwaters and onto the beaches - keep an eye out for 'em around the passes.
For bait, live shrimp and pinfish are always a safe bet. But if you're throwin' artificials, you can't go wrong with a gold spoon or a white paddletail on a 1/4 oz jighead. Topwater action's been hot in the early mornin' - try a Zara Spook or a Skitterwalk for some explosive strikes.
As for hot spots, I'd recommend checkin' out Redfish Pass or Captiva Pass. The jetties have been holdin' some nice fish. For you inshore folks, Ding Darling on Sanibel's been producin' well, especially on the outgoing tide.

22 MAR 2025 · Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Gulf Coast Florida fishing report for March 22, 2025. The sun's rising at 7:37 AM and setting at 7:40 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to reel in some beauties.
We've got a high tide coming in at 4:23 AM and 3:59 PM, with lows at 10:44 AM and 11:19 PM. The tidal coefficient is pretty strong at 77, so expect some good water movement. Water temps are warming up nicely, which has the fish more active.
Weather-wise, we're looking at partly cloudy skies with a high of 78°F and light southeast winds at 5-10 mph. Perfect conditions for a day on the water!
Inshore fishing has been on fire lately. Redfish and speckled trout are hitting hard on the flats. Anglers have been having great luck with soft plastic jerkbaits in rootbeer or white colors on red jig heads. Don't forget about those gold spoons either - they're still producing some nice catches.
Snook fishing has picked up along the mangroves and dock lights. Try using paddletail soft plastics or suspending twitch baits like the MirrOlure MirrOdine for best results.
Offshore, the grouper bite is strong in 60-90 feet of water. Mutton snapper have also been showing up, so bring along some live bait or butterfly jigs if you're heading out deep.
Pompano and Spanish mackerel are starting to show up along the beaches. Sand flea-flavored Fishbites or small jigs tipped with shrimp are your best bet for the pomps. For the macks, try fast-retrieving small silver spoons or Gotcha plugs.
As for hot spots, I'd recommend checking out Shell Island for some great redfish action, or head to the Withlacoochee River entrance for a mix of trout and reds. If you're beach fishing, Clearwater Beach has been producing some nice pompano lately.
Remember to keep it legal and release those fish you're not keeping with care. Tight lines, y'all!

21 MAR 2025 · Alright y'all, listen up! This here's Artificial Lure comin' at ya with the hot scoop on fishin' in the Gulf of Mexico off Florida for March 21, 2025.
Sun's peekin' over the horizon at 7:29 AM and'll dip back down at 7:38 PM, givin' us plenty of daylight to wet our lines. Weather's lookin' mighty fine - partly cloudy with a high of 76°F and a light breeze from the southeast. We got a low tide at 6:42 AM and 6:18 PM, with highs around 12:30 PM and just before midnight.
Now let me tell ya, the fish have been bitin' like crazy lately! Redfish are thick as thieves in the shallows, especially around oyster bars and mangroves.

Spanish mackerel have been showin' up in good numbers too. Trollin' small spoons or Gotcha plugs around bait schools should put you on the fish. And don't forget about the cobia - they're startin' to make their springtime run. Keep your eyes peeled for 'em followin' rays or cruisin' the surface.
If you're lookin' for some hot spots, I'd recommend checkin' out Redfish Pass or Captiva Pass. The jetties have been holdin' some nice fish. For you inshore folks, Ding Darling on Sanibel's been producin' well, especially on the outgoing tide.

17 MAR 2025 · Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Gulf Coast fishing report for March 17, 2025. We've got a beautiful day ahead of us with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-70s. Sunrise was at 7:38 AM, and we'll see the sun dip below the horizon at 7:32 PM.
Tides are looking good today. We've got a high tide at 9:15 AM and another at 9:45 PM, with a low tide around 3:30 PM. That incoming tide in the morning should really get the fish moving.
Folks, the fishing has been on fire lately! Redfish and speckled trout are all over the flats, especially around Crystal River and Homosassa. Anglers have been having great luck with soft plastic paddletails in pearl or chartreuse colors. Don't forget to throw a gold spoon now and then – those reds can't resist 'em!
Offshore, the grouper bite has been stellar. Gag and red grouper are hanging around structures in 60-100 feet of water. Live pinfish or frozen sardines are your best bet for bait, but if you're partial to artificials, try a heavy jig tipped with a soft plastic.
Speaking of artificials, I've been hearing great things about the MirrOlure MirrOdine lately. It's been absolutely slaying the trout and even picking up a few snook here and there.
For you sheepshead lovers, they're still thick around the bridges and pilings. Fresh shrimp or fiddler crabs on a small jig head is the ticket.
Now, if you're looking for some hot spots, I'd recommend checking out the grass flats around Tarpon Springs. The trout bite has been insane there. For something a little different, head down to Pine Island Sound. The mangrove snapper have been on fire, and you might even run into some nice-sized snook.
Remember, folks, the cobia migration is in full swing. Keep your eyes peeled for those brown bombers cruising just under the surface, especially around markers and buoys.
That's all for now, anglers. Get out there and tight lines!

16 MAR 2025 · Alright y'all, listen up! It's March 16, 2025 and I've got the scoop on what's bitin' in the Gulf. Sun's comin' up at 7:30 AM and settin' at 7:27 PM, givin' us plenty of daylight to wet our lines. Weather's lookin' mighty fine - partly cloudy with a high of 75°F and a light breeze from the southeast. Tides are runnin' low at 6:45 AM and 6:15 PM, with highs around 12:30 PM and midnight.
Now, let me tell ya, the fish have been bitin' like crazy lately! Redfish are thick as thieves in the shallows, especially around oyster bars and mangroves. We've been seein' some real bulls in the 30-40 inch range. Trout are schoolin' up nice on the grass flats, and folks have been pullin' in some gators in the 5-7 pound class. Snook are startin' to move out of the backwaters and onto the beaches - keep an eye out for 'em around the passes.

15 MAR 2025 · Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Gulf of Mexico fishing report for March 15, 2025. Let me tell you, the fishing's been hotter than a summer sidewalk lately!
First off, we've got a high tide coming in at 10:42 AM and low tide at 4:57 PM. The weather's looking mighty fine with sunny skies and a high of 78°F. Sunrise was at 6:37 AM, and we'll see the sun dip below the horizon at 7:29 PM.
Now, let's talk fish. The speckled trout have been going crazy over in the grass flats. Folks have been hauling in 20-30 inchers like they're going out of style. Redfish are also on the prowl, especially around oyster bars and mangrove shorelines. We've seen some real bruisers in the 30-inch range.
Don't forget about the sheepshead! They're still hanging around structure and pilings, and they're biting like there's no tomorrow. A few lucky anglers even reported some early pompano catches along the beaches.
For lures, you can't go wrong with a gold spoon or a white bucktail jig for those reds and trout. The Z-man paddletails in the "sexy mullet" color have been absolutely slaying it too. If you're after sheepshead, live shrimp or fiddler crabs are your best bet.
Now, if you're looking for some hot spots, I'd recommend checking out Horseshoe Beach or Steinhatchee. The flats around there have been producing some monster trout. For redfish, try your luck around the oyster bars near Cedar Key.
Remember, the early bird gets the worm, or in our case, the fish! So get out there at first light, and you might just land yourself a trophy catch. Tight lines, y'all!
