Sheepshead: These striped bandits are a favorite target for many inshore anglers. They're known for their powerful bite and sneaky ability to steal bait. Sheepshead love structure, so we'll often find them around pilings, oyster beds, and rocky areas. They put up a great fight for their size and are delicious on the dinner table. The best time to target them is typically in the cooler months, from late fall through early spring. Anglers love the challenge of hooking these bait-stealers - it takes a bit of finesse and quick reflexes!
Redfish: Also known as red drum, these copper-colored beauties are a staple of inshore fishing in Brunswick. They're known for their distinctive spot near the tail and their hard-pulling fights. Redfish can be found year-round, but the fall sees some of the best action when they school up in the shallows. We might sight-fish for them in clear water or use popping corks over grass flats. The "bull" reds (large adults) can give you a real workout on light tackle. Anglers love targeting redfish for their aggressive strikes and the way they use their powerful tails to surge away when hooked.
Speckled Trout: While not one of our primary targets, speckled trout (or spotted seatrout) are a common catch on our trips. These silvery fish with dark spots are known for their soft mouths and tendency to shake the hook. We often find them around grass flats, creek mouths, and oyster bars. They're most active in the cooler months but can be caught year-round with the right approach. Anglers enjoy catching specks for their willingness to hit artificial lures and their tasty fillets.
Brunswick's inshore waters are a maze of creeks, sounds, and marshes that create the perfect habitat for a variety of game fish. The mix of fresh and saltwater, along with plenty of structure and bait, makes this area a fish magnet. You've got a shot at multiple species on any given trip, and the scenery ain't too shabby either. Watching the sun rise over the golden marsh grass while you're reeling in a fish - that's the kind of moment that keeps anglers coming back.

Redfish are a local favorite, with that telltale spot near the tail. Most run 28-33 inches, but they can get up to 50 pounds offshore. You'll find them in super shallow water, sometimes with their backs out of the water. They love hanging around oyster beds, grass flats, and muddy bottoms. Fall's the best time to target them when they're schooling up. Reds put up an awesome fight, especially in the shallows where they'll make long runs. They're also great eating fish. For the best shot at landing one, try working a topwater lure across the flats early in the morning. When you see that wake coming towards your bait, hold on tight - the strike can be explosive. Just remember, there are size limits to protect the population, so we always measure carefully.
Sheepshead are one of the quirkiest fish you'll target around here. They're usually 1-8 pounds but can hit 20 if you're lucky. Look for them around any structure with barnacles - docks, bridges, reefs. These "convict fish" got their nickname from the black stripes on their silvery bodies. They've got human-like teeth perfect for crushing crabs and shellfish. Spring's the prime time to catch 'em as they form big spawning groups. Sheepshead put up a solid fight and make great eating, but cleaning them can be tricky with their tough scales. Here's a local tip: use a heavy-duty fiddler crab as bait and get it right up against the pilings. When you feel that nibble, set the hook hard - these guys are notorious bait stealers.
