Fall Fishing in Anna Maria Island & Bradenton, FL Fishing Report

Bradenton - Saltwater Fishing Report
We are experiencing a rainy and windy day today as another strong cold front moves through our area. This is making the fish move around more along with this whole week leading up to a new moon. Anglers on our fishing charters this week experienced great action with snook, spotted seatrout, jack crevelle, Spanish mackerel, ladyfish, many undersized gag grouper, and a couple redfish and a couple mangrove snapper on each trip. The jacks, ladyfish, and mackerel are in large schools this time of year and can provide fast action for hours. This type of fishing is great for kids as almost every bait gets eaten immediately and there is not much skill involved. We should start to see more pompano around soon on the deeper grass flats around the mouth of the river.
The tripletail are starting to show up. When conditions are right we run a mile or two into the Gulf of Mexico and actually sight fish these fish off floating debris and crab traps in the water. These fish are one of the tastiest fish to eat and they are a blast to catch because it is sight fishing, you get to watch the tripletail eat your bait most of the time. The kingfish still have not made an appearance off the beaches, but all the right things are happening off the beach as far as bait and great water temperature. I am hopeful that they will start to show up after this weekend.
If you are looking to get out on the water for a fun day of fishing in the Bradenton, Anna Maria Island, or Palmetto areas and make some memories with family and friends give me a call or text 813-220-8725. The holidays are fast approaching and I still have availability but call sooner than later so I can accommodate.
