Reeling in Adventure: A Thrilling Inshore Fishing Expedition

It was a beautiful June morning when Alex and their crew joined us at Milton, FL for a 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters. The weather was partly cloudy with some afternoon rain, but we were determined to make the most of it and get them on some quality inshore fish. The waters around Garcon Point are known for their diverse population of Spotted Weakfish, Redfish, and even the occasional Atlantic Sharpnose Shark, especially during the summer months.

We started the day off with some jigging and fly fishing, targeting the deeper channels and structure where the Weakfish and Redfish like to hang out. It didn't take long before one of the rods started screaming—Alex had hooked into a nice Spotted Weakfish that put up an impressive fight. After getting that fish in the boat, the action stayed steady, and we started picking up a few more Weakfish, as well as some nice Redfish. The fly rods got in on the action too, with a few Reds smashing the flies we were working.

As the afternoon rolled in, the weather shifted a bit, and we decided to switch over to some heavier tackle to target the larger predators. And boy, were we glad we did! One of the anglers in the group got absolutely spooled when a big Atlantic Sharpnose Shark hammered their bait. After a lengthy battle, we were able to leader the fish, snap a few pics, and send it on its way. The rain held off just long enough for us to enjoy the excitement before we called it a day.
