Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report
The best action for clients on Sarasota fishing charters this week was on the deep grass flats. Speckled trout were numerous, hitting jigs and live shrimp. Bluefish, Spanish mackerel, jacks, pompano, ladyfish, small sharks, big sailcats, and other species were also landed. The flats from New Pass north were best as the water cleared up the further from the passes we got. Sheepshead fishing in the passes was hit or miss. We had a couple good days and a slow day as well. There are a LOT of smaller snapper, sea bass, and pinfish which makes getting a shrimp to the sheepshead difficult. Perhaps the cooler weather will help as the water temperature was a bit too high for mid February. Anglers drifting with jigs in Big Pass caught a few pompano, mackerel, and ladyfish as well.
