Fort Myers - Saltwater Fishing Report
Water off our coast is getting clearer and warmer.
Gag Grouper have been pounding our near shore reefs,
with some keepers on the half days (4 hr.). Sheepshead have started to spawn, some 4 or 5 lbs. are making thier way to the fryer and the really big ones to the grill.
The Gulf of Mexico dipped down into the 50's during our recent cold fronts but now with our increasing temps. bait fish are starting to show up and enticing Cobia, Kingfish, big Bull Redfish and others to the reefs.
Fort Myers Fishing Forecast:
We have paid our dues with the recent cold fronts, finally we have our weather back ( chamber of commmerce weather) This week forecast is calling for low winds and minimal seas, yeah!!!
Great time of the year for solid action with the chance of a Cobia, keeper Grouper, Large Black and Red Drum, Kingfish, Snapper, all pulling hard on our lines. Island Fever Fishing Charters would love to bring your party out for a great day.
See you soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
