Like always, as summer comes to an end, the winds switch from Southerly to Northerly and the bait starts it's annual migration. Little Yellow Sulphur butterflies fill the sky and migrate over the marsh and inlets. Mullet, silversides and shrimp gather in endless schools and march through the marsh and pour out the inlets to swim through the gauntlet of predators. Albacore, bluefish and mackerel line the inlets and beachfront awaiting the buffet. Back in the marsh, redfish, trout and flounder feed the hardest they have all year, in preparation for the lean months through the winter.
Because of this, the fishing goes from good to great, and we take full advantage of it. The months of September through November offer a cornucopia of fishing opportunities.
The fishing has really perked up in the last week. I'm looking forward to some cool crisp nights and a bunch of willing fish.
