Sisters Creek carries the ICW north from the St. Johns and has several of these tributaries. Outside bends in the creeks are deeper, and trout often school in these holes while the tide ebbs.
On the incoming flow, they move with the water, headed back into the bays and flats to feed. These fish can be caught by concentrating on the mouths of the deeper feeder creeks, with either live or artificial bait.
IN CONCLUSION
There are numerous other areas in the state that you can visit to catch large numbers of trout. Or you may opt for some of the regions known for giving up big yellow-mouth gator trout.
Just make sure that wherever you end up, you know and follow the FWCC regulations for size and creel limits. The Northeast and Northwest regions of the state have a limit of five fish per angler per day, while the South Region's limit is four. In all three areas, the fish must all be 15 inches or longer, with only one allowed to be longer than 20 inches.
Trout fishing is at a peak in most areas of the state this month and should remain strong through the rest of the summer. Larger fish are spawning in most areas of Florida as well. That means they are aggressive and willing to attack most any bait you can put in front of them.
Visiting the areas and using the tactics covered just might provide some great fishing and fine eating this month!
