Fishing Report - Naples, Ft. Myers, Bonita Beach & Estero Bay

Capt. Dave Hanson
May 20, 2006
Fort Myers - Saltwater Fishing Report

Bonita Beach, SW FL: redfish, trout, snapper, jack bayside



Monday, I fished the west wall of Estero Bay with brothers Tom and Kevin Connolly. We used shiners to catch three redfish, two of which were keepers, and an 18 inch trout. We released a 21 inch gag grouper and a cravalle jack.

After a couple of rainy, windy days, I fished Estero Bay again on Thursday, with Sally Faust and friends, Todd and Brenda. We used live shrimp to catch and release two redfish, mangrove snapper, and cravalle jacks.

Saturday, fishing Estero Bay was kind of slow, but J.R. Gardner caught and released mangrove snapper and cravalle jacks, fishing with live shrimp around the tree lines and oyster bars.

*The photo shown is of a 23 inch redfish, caught on a recent backwater trip in Estero Bay.
