In this episode of Florida Sportsman, it’ all about moving water. If there is one great sign to look for when you are inshore or offshore, it’s moving water. Most places you fish, still water is a curse. You want to fish moving tides, tidelines, upwellings, eddies, the gulfstream, pond creek outflows, things like that. In today’s show, what happens when the gulfstream slams into underwater structure like a hump? Well, great fishing for tuna and snapper for one thing. We also head inshore to follow water that might be holding redfish.

On the Conservation Front: Karl Wickstrom details how farm raised fish is much more beneficial to the environment than commercial fishing.
