Kids fishing trips and families who are more relaxed fishers enjoy the live bait fishing over artificial lures. Live Shrimp is the primary bait we use till summer arrives. During the hotter months we fish live fish baits like finger mullet and pinfish. Live bait fishing in the months of May and June are a great way to catch trophy Florida Gator Trout. Large Finger Mullet or Croakers and the preferred baits for catching the large Speckled Trout. Catch and Release only for the Gator Trout but we also catch plenty of slot size Speckled Trout that are perfect for the dinner table.
live bait fishing schooled up redfish can be some of the most exciting fishing there is! live shrimp on popping corks or free lined on a small hook are great ways to fish the hard hitting aggressive Redfish. Luckly for us we get to catch Redfish all year long. All 12 months there are Redfish to be found with the months April-May and October-November being the best months for targeting redfish. Live Bait fishing redfish during the best months usually result in multiple hook ups and some very large Bull Reds as well.

Artificial Lure Fishing in Okaloosa Island, Florida
Artificial Lures are a fun way to catch fish in Destin, Florida. These styles of trips are great for small groups of 1 or 2 people wanting to try to the more sportsman side of fishing for these amazing fish. Covering ground is the key to being productive with artificial lures. Showintail Inshore Charters uses Minn Kota Trolling motors to slowly navigate the shallow waters while targeting Redfish, Speckled Trout, Jack Crevalles and other really cool saltwater fish.
Artificial Lure fishing can be very productive and exciting. Early morning top water lures bring huge explosive bites from Redfish and Speckled Trout. Once the sun gets up switching to Gold Spoons and a variety of soft plastic bait. On sunny days when the wind is calm, sight fishing for Redfish is very fun skill testing way to target these powerful animals. During the winter months artificial lures are a great way to cover areas and find redfish moving up into the shallows to warm up and feed. Gold Spoons and slow moving paddle tails are a favorite at Showintail Inshore Fishing Charters.
