Improving SW Florida weather should improve the bite

Fort Myers - Saltwater Fishing Report

The past couple of weeks proved tough for catching. Duel weather systems delivered a one-two punch with cold temps and windy conditions. The nearshore reefs did produce some pompano and sheepshead and we caught a few seatrout on the flats of Estero Bay while using live shrimp under popping corks.

The good news…The weather is finally cooperating! The forecast is for cool nights and warm days with normal winter weather for Southwest Florida. That means highs in the 80's. We might be able to put away the coats for awhile.

The bite should be back on as we move toward the weekend so it's time to wet a line. Give me a call and let's go fishing!
