Sarasota Report, Capt Jim Klopfer, 8/11/2012 - The strategy to cast lures and flies at first light to take advantage of the early morning bite then switching to live bait when the action slowed has been extremely productive on my charters this week. Baitfish are thick on the grass flats and very more...

Good end of summer fishing off Anna Maria - The last couple of weeks redfish have been on fire. My poor popping corks have really taken a beating almost everyone has teeth marks. Sometimes I think putting a hook at the bottom of the float would catch more fish then the bait. On the better days more...

Hot Water Reds -
After sticking my head in a bucket of ice water, I looked out of the corner of my eye to see a rod doubled over in the holder. I love cut bait on hot days. You can talk, get a drink, and find some shade on your boat if you got a cover of some sort. more...

Tampa Bay Summer time bite is on! - Small bait in Tampa Bay is aplenty, and the fish love it. Small bait usually appears in the area a bit earlier than it has this year. I believe the delay is due to the hot, wet weather we've had lately. As the saying goes, better late than never, more...
