Homosassa Fishing Reports

Absolutely murdered the redfish again today!!!! Kept a couple for dinner, released 30-40 more to catch again tomorrow!!💪💪🎣🎣 #seizeTheBay #redfishing #bluewaveboats #weekiwachee

Limit after limit on the scallops this year!! Give me a call if you want to get in on the action. 352-345-0963

New goal as a guide. Put clients on fish that are bigger than they are!!😂 I'm not sure who was more surprised when he eventually got this WAY over 40" snook close enough to the boat I could see what he actually had on the end of that 15 pound test!! Had a redfish that was almost as big right up to the boat. Unfortunately it proved to be a little too much and wrapped the line around a rock on the last run and escaped anyway. Regardless, I'm going to call this one a win! What an epic and satisfying day on the water!! Only a handful of days left before spring snook season closes. Call now to get in on some hot snook action! 352-345-0963 Seize the Bay Fishing Charters #snookfishing #hernandocounty #redfishing #bayport #citruscounty

Absolute non stop action today! This couple hung in there for a good 25-30 top slot reds and snook before calling it quits! 30 minutes early on today's 4 hour. Man, I love fishing the warmer months!!

Cold afternoon on the water but the fish didn't seem to mind! Non-stop action catching snook, trout, reds, mangroves and black drum. Only kept 3 for dinner but we could've filled the boat up today! #SeizeTheBay #hernandocounty #citruscounty #bayport #speckledtrout

Apparently I slacked big time on the pics today but these fish were all but jumping in the boat!! Limited on trout and reds released a bunch more plus several drum and snapper. Fun day!!! #seizeTheBay #weekiwachee #hernandocounty #speckledtrout #redfishing Seize the Bay Fishing Charters

Nice limit of redfish and several releases plus some nice snook on both trips today. Had some awesome folks on the boat all day long! Had a large group this morning and had to run two boats.

These girls had a blast reeling in some nice snook and reds this afternoon. It's that time of year, a little live bait and some moving tide = lots of big smiles 😁😁 #hernandocounty #kastking #suzukioutboards #floridasadventurecoast #snook #redfishing #SeizeTheBay #shimanoreels #BlueWave #citruscounty

"Hey cap, can we target some different species today? We catch redfish and trout at home." Challenge accepted. Had to get a little creative on Sunday's trip. We chased snook around the back country to start off then moved to some near shore crab floats and had a blast sight fishing tripletail. From there we moved out a bit more where we caught Spanish mackerel, bluefish, played with some black tip sharks, jacks, mangrove snapper and a few others.

Big win for the ladies team today!! They really whipped some spotted tail on this morning's 4 hour trip!!! Redfish after redfish until their arms hurt! With this hot wa... See more

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.

Non-stop bites all day long! I had the pleasure of taking William and their crew out on the water for a 6-hour fishing charter with Seize The Bay Fishing Charters in Weeki Wachee, FL. We launched out of the Bayport Park Boat Ramp on a beautiful June morning, with the weather starting off clear and sunny. With our gear rigged and ready, we worked the inshore waters around Bayport, using a variety of techniques like live bait fishing, bottom fishing, and casting lures. The redfish were really active, and we managed to hook into several nice ones throughout the day. This area is known for its consistent inshore action, and we took full advantage of it. As the afternoon rolled in, the skies started to cloud over, and we had to keep an eye out for some potential storms moving in. But that didn't slow down the fishing one bit. We kept at it, adjusting our tactics as needed, and finished the trip on a high note, with smiles all around. While we didn't stick any trophy-sized fish, every cast and minute on the water was worth it.

It was a beautiful spring day in Weeki Wachee, Florida, and our group of five was ready to hit the water for a thrilling inshore fishing adventure with Seize The Bay Fishing Charters. April is prime time for targeting a diverse array of gamefish in these waters, so we knew we were in for an action-packed day. We launched out of Bayport Park Boat Ramp and quickly started working the flats and creek mouths, mixing up our techniques with jigging, trolling, heavy tackle, and light tackle. It didn't take long before we started getting some solid bites, with Lisa, one of our anglers, hooking into a feisty Redfish. That fish put up an incredible fight, peeling out drag and making some acrobatic jumps, but Lisa kept her cool and landed it beautifully. As we continued exploring the area, the fish kept coming. The group was reeling in Spotted Seatrout and Common Snook left and right, testing their skills with the varied species and techniques. The clear conditions allowed us to spot the fish and target them precisely, making for an exhilarating day on the water.

What a great afternoon we had out on the water with Scott Robillard for our Half Day Trip (PM) with Seize The Bay Fishing Charters. 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. Even if we didn't land a trophy-sized fish, it was still an awesome afternoon on the water, enjoying the spring conditions and each other's company.
