Clearwater - Saltwater Fishing Report
With the weather heating up, so is the fishing. Redfish are in big numbers. Fish from 26 to 35 inches have been the norm. They have moved onto the flats, staging on sand points and oyster bars. Scaled sardines and small pinfish have invaded the flats, which has gotten these Reds fired up.
Snook have finally started to feed. With the influx of bait, these fish are on the flats and around the docks. Live scaled sardines have produced nice fish in the 25" to 35" class.
Spanish Mackerel have started to show up. These fish are in the 2 to 4 pound range.
Kingfish have shown up on the reefs in 40 ft. of water. Look for these fish to move towards the beach in the next week or two.
Cobia have just started to move into our area off the reefs, on the beaches and in the Intracoastal waterways.
With waters at 70 degrees, Tarpon should start to show up any time now. With plenty of bait, these fish should start showing up in the bays and backwaters.
Fishing is at it's prime from now until May, so book your trip soon for an unforgettable adventure
