Glass minnows may be tiny, but they call the shots in early summer. Have you ever leaned over the side of the boat or walked a dock in early June and caught that flickering glint just under the surface? Looks like a shimmer, like raindrops hitting the water – but it’s sunny, calm, dead still. That’s not weather. That’s glass minnows. And when they show up, everything inshore starts to change.

Shadow lines produce fish, day and night. I’ll never forget the first night I peered down from one of the bridges in Middle Keys in Florida. Two-dozen tarpon ranging from 30 to 150 pounds were staging just inside the shadows thrown by the street lights. They were waiting for mullet to mistakenly enter their deceptive trap.

A variety of grasses and algae in the water can range from a nuisance to flat-out ruining the fishing. Seagrasses and seaweed, however, are an important part of the ecosystem in the estuaries. They provide cover for both larval and juvenile fish along with other creatures such as crabs, shrimp and shellfish, to name a few.

“The key to fishing waterways with lumber understanding how the wood orients the trout.”Some wild and native trout streams are laden with naturally-gouged pools that hold a plethora of trout during all seasons of the year. Other creeks contain large boulders that create perfect pockets and eddies where larger trout command over the little guys.
