Florida’s waters offer great fishing
year-round. Here are just a few examples of what you might expect during
your visit:
Spring Season (April – June):
One of the offshore highlights in Spring is the running of the King
Mackerel as they search for warm waters. Grouper, Black Seabass and Red
Snapper are also popular catches in the waters offshore. Great fishing
also exists if you’re looking to stay in the shallower in-shore waters of
the Steinhatchee area. Spanish Mackerel, Bluefish, Redfish, Spotted
Seatrout and many other popular types of fish are common catches here.
Summer Season (July – September): Scalloping
is this season’s most popular activity in the Steinhatchee
area. It’s an easy, fun sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
Ask the staff at Gulfstream how to find the best places for scalloping,
grab your snorkel, fins and mesh net for your catch and you’re on your
way! For more information, click on the Scalloping icon.
If scalloping doesn’t quench your thirst
for the sport of fishing, you can take guided or chartered services to
catch the “big” fish. In addition to many of those you’d expect during
the Spring Season, Summer brings Tarpon, Flounder and even Shark.
Fall Season (October – December):
Just as in Spring, Fall is another time when many fish run for warmer
waters. Expect to fish for Spanish Mackerel, Redfish, Bluefish and others
inshore, while Grouper, Kingfish, Black Seabass, Red Snapper and others
congregate offshore.
Winter Season (January – March):
For those of you looking to escape the cold weather for some warm winter
fishing during these months, Steinhatchee is a fishing haven. Grouper and
Sheepshead are two of the most popular, fun catches during this season.
Gulfstream staff and guides can help you locate the latest hot spots and
ledges where these and other fish may be hiding.
