Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report

Fishing was good over the last couple weeks for clients on Sarasota fishing charters. Sarasota Bay is a bit warmer than normal, resulting in good action on the deep grass flats. Speckled trout, Spanish mackerel, pompano, bluefish, jacks, ladyfish, and more hit jigs cast while drifting the flats. Anglers free lining shrimp around oyster bars found juvenile permit, snook, redfish, sheepshead, flounder, and snapper. Sheepshead seem to be moving into the passes as anglers bottom fishing with shrimp caught some decent sheepies mixed in with a ton of small snapper and sea bass. A fly angler scored his first couple jack crevalle up in a residential canal one breezy morning. The warm water has not been good for river fishing, which has been a bit slow. Persistent anglers caught snook and gar on Rapala plugs.
