Back in Black! Sea Bass Fishing is back on!

Back in Black! Sea Bass Fishing is ON!

Finally, Finally, we can keep Sea Bass again. We have been battling through them trying to get to the other species but man, these Blackfish are THICK!
The Amberjack bite has been Stellar, the Cobia are still straggling around, we've had some monster Spadefish on light tackle, and all of that combined with a nice box of Sea Bass, and you have yourself a pretty fine day of fishing coastal Georgia.
While I'm at it I might as well mention that the inshore bite has been pretty reliable. There seems to be a "here or zero" thing going around, but the hero days make it worth your time to get out there.
The Shark bite has been pretty good too. We fish behind the shrimp boats and get some fat sharks in the 100 pound range. It's hard to beat catching a lot of big fish that fight hard in a 4 hour trip near land. You can see the St. Simons lighthouse and all of Jekyll Island from where we catch these fish.
The Tarpon have shown up and are getting to be steady enough to fish for. I'm not quite ready to go park on the breakers and spend a lot of time on it, but it is getting close.
In summary, the fishing at St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island is SOLID.

Tight lines!
