Horseshoe Beach

[Pecanman]

Im headed to horseshoe beach labor day weekend. Im a rookie fishing in the gulf! Im wondering If anyone could help me out on how and where to go for Reds and Trout?

go on the flats for trout and by the bars for reds.

Pecanman, I've only been to horeshoe beach once, but it was pretty boat-friendly. The main channel from the boat ramp is unmistakable, as rock-wall jetties on both sides for what seems like a mile. It spits you out in safe water, and you can run around most anywhere. Trout should be fairly easy to find in 3 to 6 foot of water (no guarantees). Do like everyone else does; look for more than one boat in the same area, and join them (not too close, of course).

Thanks!

You'll enjoy Horseshoe Beach, Pecanman. It is a very nice place! My brothers favorite place to fish. When the tide is high you can also run the old channel but it isn't very well marked unless you know.
