Experience the Best of Fall Inshore Fishing in Northeast Florida
When autumn arrives in Jacksonville and St. Augustine, the waterways come alive with some of the best inshore fishing of the year. At Captain Cook Charters, our fall fishing trips focus on the season’s top inshore species — Sheepshead, Black Drum, and Redfish. With cooler temperatures, active baitfish, and hungry gamefish, fall is the perfect time to get out on the water and enjoy action-packed fishing.
Fall Target Species in Northeast Florida
Sheepshead – Easily recognized by their black-and-white stripes and sharp teeth, Sheepshead school up around bridges, docks, and pilings during the cooler months — and they make for excellent table fare.
Black Drum – From smaller “puppy drum” to trophy-sized bull drum, these powerful fish are a local favorite and put up an incredible fight during the fall season.
Redfish (Red Drum) – Fall is prime time for Redfish in Northeast Florida. Big schools move across the flats and along the rocks, feeding aggressively and providing some of the best sight fishing of the year.
