Sarasota fishing steady, though unspectacular

Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report
My Sarasota fishing report is fair at best as conditions have not been the best of late. For some reason, the water in Sarasota Bay remained murky and a kind of brown color. I am not sure if it was due to the persistent wind, or perhaps the rain, but the stained water makes the fishing a bit tough. Still, persistent anglers caught speckled trout to 21", snook, ladyfish, jacks, gag grouper, snapper, ladyfish, catfish, and a small cobia this week. Gulp Shrimp and Bass Assassin jigs fooled most of the fish while free lined live shrimp also accounted for fish. The flats in the middle of the bay were best, with Bishop's Pt. being the top spot. Docks in New Pass hels snook while bridges produced mangrove snapper, jacks, and a small cobia on live shrimp. I am hoping the water clears up and the baitfish show up; that will really crank up the summer fishing.
