When the mullet are stacked up, pay attention. 👀 Found this big girl holding deep under the bait and she absolutely crushed the Megabass Magdraft. These are the bites that keep us coming back!

Flounder fishing has it's learning curves, especially when they get up in the marshes, where everything looks good. But, as you will see in this clip, long skinny grass points are gold, and usually hold a fish or two. It's a great starting point if you're just getting started.

BIG TROUT ALERT! This slab couldn't resist the mid-stroll presentation today. When the fish are suspended, the mid-stroll technique can be absolutely deadly!

This big girl got fooled by the Rapala Crush City Freeloader 5.25' on a Gamakatsu Horizon Head jighead. This combo is deadly with the "mid-strolling" technique, so famous in the bass fishing world. Well, guess what? It's awesome for speckled trout too!

We pushed deep into the marsh and locked in on a killer pattern—fishing tight to the grass lines where the flounder were stacked. Every point held quality fish, and the bite stayed hot all day.

From reading the current to working those edges just right, this trip had everything: steady action, solid flounder, and some beautiful marsh scenery. If you love inshore flounder fishing, this one’s packed with tips and moments you won’t want to miss.

I love it when a challenge presents itself on a fishing trip, forcing me to figure out the puzzle. It creates on-the-water, real time fishing education to share with all of YOU! I started out with one plan, but the flounder had something completely different in mind. After a slow start, I switched spots, changed presentations, and finally dialed in the pattern—then it was game on.

I ended up catching a pile of fish and learning a ton along the way. If you like watching the process of figuring out a bite, adapting, and then getting rewarded for it, this one’s for you.

As most of you know, Strike King is a massive lure brand with many styles of lures, covering many techniques. What's that have to do with me? Well, I utilize quite a few Strike King lures for inshore fishing, with a ton of success. Tackle Warehouse currently has a big 25% off sale on all things Strike King going on through 20 October. In the attached images you'll see the lures I frequently utilize in saltwater fishing. If you are interested in taking advantage of this sale, buying through the link above directly supports The Inshore Edge, going a long way in offsetting the costs of creating content. Any purchases through this link will give me a commission. I truly appreciate your support!

- Strike King 3X ElazTech Z Too Soft Jerkbaits, 4" for dropshot, 5" and 7" for mid-strolling or just jigging off the bottom with a jighead. Favorite colors: Smoky Shad, Gray Glimmer Pearl Belly, Tennessee Shad, Dirty Shad. The super tough, stretchy, ElazTech material will make these baits last a long time.

-Strike King HC KVD Wakebait, These are my favorite crank/wake baits for redfishing. They cast a mile, wake just below the surface, and make reds go nuts. There is no more exciting way to catch a redfish than on a wakebait. Especially when they sense it from a distance, and torpedo towards the bait. It's wild! Favorite colors are: Gizzard Shad, Green Gizzard, Pro Blue, The Shizzle

Strike King Shadalicious Swimbait, 5.5" rigged on your favorite weight EWG, and swim this crazy action swimbait along jetties, rock reefs, and seawalls. This thing looks like a mullet broke it's back (It's Spinal). We stumbled upon this early summer and caught quite a few big trout. Favorite colors: Blue Gizzard, Green Gizzard, Ayu

Strike King Rage Swimmer Swimbait, 3.25" and 3.75". Put these on your favorite jighead, and just fish. Bounce it off the bottom, swim it, whatever you want to do, and it will catch everything. Trout, reds, and flounder will eat these all day, fooled over and over by the outstanding tail thump. Favorite colors: Electric Shad, Ghost Shad, KVD Magic, Pro Blue Red Pearl

This fish led to a 5.5 pound trout a couple days later, but the theatrics this fish put on are made for social media. Most importantly, it's another glimpse I can give you into the ridiculously exciting year I've had throwing big swimbaits for speckled trout. If you want to get into it, the perfect bait to start out with is the 6" Berkley Chop Block. It will be the easiest transition into gaining confidence with bigger lures. If you are interested in the Chop Block, buying it through the links in my website (located in my profile at the top of the page under Big Trout Lures) will be a huge help to supporting The Inshore Edge. Thank you!

The hunt for big trout has been slow lately, so I switched gears and made a flounder‑only run in the Back Bay. With extremely high water in the mornings, the flounder have been pushing way back into the creeks and bayous, turning the bite into a true “needle in a haystack” situation.

Plan A was to work the shallow marsh‑grass points on the big grass islands. Normally great on high water — but completely dead.

Plan B was to slide into a few small bayous where flounder usually run with the incoming tide. Other than one solid fish, that pattern fizzled too.

Plan C came together on the fly when I spotted a huge shallow flat with a clean marsh‑grass shoreline and very few feeder creeks. The flat was loaded with shrimp, pogies, and mullet, and that was the key. And unlike the other areas we struck out on, if fish were here, we could find them, as opposed to searching miles of creeks. We covered hundreds of yards of shoreline quickly and efficiently, picking off flounder consistently. Ended up with nine pretty flounder in the cooler and released a 20" stud to grow even bigger and maybe make someone's day in the future.

Lesson learned:
When the water is high this fall and your usual spots aren’t producing, find a big flat with bait and work the shorelines hard. Flounder pile onto these flats to gorge on shrimp, pogies, and mullet before the winter spawn — if the bait is there, the flounder will be too. Last but not least, take a few minutes to visually scan the flat along its shoreline. Look for the areas where baitfish move close to the shore. Those are the key areas where flounder will stage as it gives them the greatest advantage to fill their bellies

Sometimes the clues needed to find big trout don't always present themselves in the most obvious ways. Yet the pattern to success might be hiding in the small details. On this morning, that pattern presented itself through studying my Garmin side scan, revealing a few big trout scattered underneath large menhaden, which led to several good fish making it to the boat. These are the kind of on the water lessons which pop up unexpectedly and get me psyched to share with YOU!
