Crystal River Kayak Fishing The Nature Coast - Yankeetown Back Country

Brian and I were able to get out one last time in 2023. We often run routes that Brian scouts for his clients, have to keep current on where the fish are.

I knew it was going to be a good day in the skinny when I saw those Redfish and Speckled Trout tracks.....LOL!!😎

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

Right! Lol

[@rogerclaiborne6815]

Nice Reds. I've been meaning to head out there the last few weeks. Still learning the fishing in this area. A lot different then what we fish in Pensacola.

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

Bigger Reds up that way. There are back waters there as well, but not like here.

[@saunderskohn8977]

Al, tell Brian the TRD Ned Rig micro gets them trout!

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

Lol, he just won't go there! He did good with the Mirrodine 17 though

[@saunderskohn8977]

Brian…”enough trout…let’s go fish some Reds”

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

@saunderskohn8977 yep, that's him for sure. Chartering with him tomorrow. Buddy from WI is down and I'm no fool when it comes time to properly educate someone on In-shore fishing. I'll be the kayak in the back filming and picking up the fish they miss.

Hey man i went out of yankeetown the other day and tooled around a bit, only caught a small catfish. You got any preferences on where to go out from like the boat ramp during different tides or just in general? The wife is gonna kick me out if i dont bring back dinner next time after how much money i spent to go fishing😂

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

@@KirkMcGirk what launch did you use? I am assuming you were using bait.

[@KirkMcGirk]

@naturecoastinshorefishing4397 went out of bird creek beach. Not sure if there are better places to launch a kayak or what. Typically just use lures. A spook and mirrodine are my go tos for the most part, but I threw a zman mulletron my friend gave me for awhile that caught me the cat. Only have two rods at the moment so I try to not be changing.

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

@@KirkMcGirk Catching the cat threw me, usually a sure sign of bait. If launching from Bird Creek Beach head east (left) then after the 2nd big island turn north towards Kelly Creek. This is where I start fishing the north bank at the turn, then the channel, bars and shore towards Kelly Creek. Then fish the south shores in Kelly creek, points, creeks, oyster bars, and islands in the creek, then on the way back repeat on the north. Just hit all those fishy spots, explore the small creeks. Summertime is tough, keep that in mind. If you noticed, no videos from me lately. Fish your favorite soft plastic, 4” paddle tail darker colors for Yankeetown. Top water in the morning, or mirrodines all day along side channels little deeper water etc. Route is on Google maps.

[@KirkMcGirk]

@naturecoastinshorefishing4397 yeah I did notice. Was looking for one to see if I could recognize any summer spots next time i go out lol. I don't blame you though, it was over cast all day and I still got sunburnt and dehydrated out there. I did notice you're typically using darker colors so I definitely need to grab some. Appreciate the tips man!

@@KirkMcGirk For summertime fishing follow Brian Stauffer at fishhead kayak charters, he’s on instagram and Facebook, dude catches fish on the nature coast year round.

[@lmb25315]

Do you typically go north to like Vassey creek or Turtle Creek or go south towards the power plant?

[@naturecoastinshorefishing4397]

Both, depends on tides, wind etc. Lately, like today went North
