Brunswick Fishing Reviews
St. Simons Sound was a redfish goldmine
Fished the oyster bars and grass edges in St. Simons Sound near Brunswick and the redfish were feeding aggressively on the falling tide. Threw Z-Man paddletails and gold spoons and landed 12 gorgeous slot reds. Brunswick sits at the heart of Georgia's best redfish water.

Flounder were thick in the sound channels
Drifted live mud minnows through the deeper channels of St. Simons Sound and the flounder were parked on every ledge. Landed 11 beautiful flatfish with the biggest going over 5 pounds. The sound channels around Brunswick are some of the most productive flounder water in Georgia.

Speckled trout going off in the sound
Worked soft plastics over the grass beds in St. Simons Sound from the Brunswick side and the speckled trout were on fire. Landed 20 trout with the biggest going 22 inches. Mixed in some redfish and flounder for an incredible mixed bag. Brunswick gives you easy access to world-class sound fishing.

Sheepshead were biting every drop
Fished fiddler crabs around the Brunswick marina pilings and bridge structure and the sheepshead were on fire. Landed 15 sheepies between 3 and 6 pounds — some of the fattest sheepshead I've seen this season. Winter fishing in Brunswick is all about the sheepshead and they never disappoint.

Tarpon busting bait in the sound
Found tarpon rolling and busting bait in St. Simons Sound near Brunswick at sunrise. Free-lined live mullet into the school and hooked three silver kings. Landed a beautiful 85-pounder after an incredible fight. The Brunswick tarpon fishery is one of Georgia's greatest summer experiences.

Black drum loaded on the oyster bars
Fished cut blue crab on the oyster bars in St. Simons Sound and the black drum were feeding aggressively in the shallow water. Landed seven black drum between 15 and 30 pounds. These powerful fish in shallow water provide an incredible fight. Brunswick is Georgia's black drum hotspot.
