Fishing Old Port Tampa With Shamrock !

Tampa Bay - Saltwater Fishing Report
Those dog days of summer are upon us.
With water temperatures in the upper 80's
& the freshwater from summer storms pouring
in to our rivers, the fishing can be a little
challenging.
Early morning and evening tidal flow has proved
to be the ticket, when it comes to a successful
day of fishing. Look for deeper water adjacent
to rocks,oyster bars and creek mouths. Fish
areas slowly and thoroughly.
We had a good half day of fishing the docks
and stucture around Old Port Tampa. Although, we
were unable to get the Jew Fish to chew, we did
have sucess landing mangrove snapper, snook, red
fish, and trout!
All fish were caught on frozen shrimp an a
1/8oz. jig.The only exception was the snapper
preferred small live white bait on a 1/0 EUPRO j-
hook with 20lb EUPRO fluorocarbon leader.
The Port with its deep channels, commerical
shipping docks, and scattered patches of
mangroves can be a great place to fish. So, get
out there or give me a holler and I'll show you
how!
Till next time have a safe & quality day on
the water! Capt. Sean Hagen "Fishing Like A Pro"
