But we did find some willing Snook
A little patience was all it took
We only had six but what can you do
The largest Snook measured out at 32
Artificial lures only
Keep the sp more...

An Early Taste of Spring Brings Great Fishing - Enough with writing reports about fishing winter species in cold water! The last week has evolved into a more spring-like pattern as the water in the back bays warmed up from 65° a week ago to 80° this weekend. With the transition, I am now finding more...

Fish are Happy with the Warm Temperatures! -
The fish are happy with the warm temps and so are the anglers. Since the water is warming it's pushing the fish out in the middle parts of Estero Bay. Look for trout on the incoming tide on the grass flats in 2-4ft of water using a cork with li more...

Estero Bay -Pine island Good Fly and Artie Action - Backbay: The back waters were still a tad challenging with sluggish tide, afternoon weather and wind a problem. Steady Eddy Crews hung in there and came up with upper slot reds, fat limits of trout and numbers of release snook. The bite really picked more...

SW FL-Bonita Beach: Grouper & Hogs, Sheepshead & drum - Monday, 1/20/14, was the first day in about two weeks that was suitable for offshore fishing. Successive, relentless weather fronts had forced me off the water for about a week, then into the backwaters for the next week or so. Another front, predict more...

Pine Island Sound Backwater Fishing - The snook and redfish bite continues to be on particularly the past couple of weeks after our last series of stronger cold fronts. Work these areas slow until you find the deeper holes. We've been throwing shrimp patterns and paddletails rigged on a more...

Warm weather, warm water means great fishing - It was a very fishy week in Estero Bay and it was nice to get back in shorts, t-shirts and flip flops again and look for fish without having to worry about the next cold front. The daytime air temperatures are back in the 80's and the water temps ha more...
