New Surf Fishing Baits Are Reeling Them In

By Courtney Woznek

Withthe temperatures and fishing really heating up in Northeast Florida, you’ll want to ensure you have everything you need to lure fish into taking your bait. Just in time for the late Spring action, Fishbites created two new baits that are already proving to be a hit amongst anglers and a wide variety of species.

The new E-Z Longer Lasting Blue Crab Fishbites mimics the blue and white colors of a fresh blue crab, which we all know is a great bait for red drum, pompano, and black drum. The longer-lasting formula slowly releases scent into the water and stays strong on the hook, which is crucial for surf fishing and deep dropping offshore. In just a few months, the Blue Crab Fishbites have caught bull whiting, pompano, red drum, sheepshead, black drum, cobia, and snapper here in Northeast Florida.

Also coming in hot are the Periwinkle Clam E-Z Longer Lasting Fishbites meant to imitate the purple hues of the coquina (donax) clams commonly found in the surf. From pompano to red drum, this color combo seems to be the ticket when you are matching the hatch, and the success these baits are having across Florida beaches is remarkable. We cannot wait to see what Fishbites comes out with next!
