Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report
Anglers fishing with me on the Snook Fin-Addict, out of CB's Saltwater Outfitters on Siesta Key, had good action with trout, bluefish and snook during the week of April 28th. The best action was on deep grass flats of Sarasota Bay with trout and bluefish.
Fly anglers Jack Sinton and Dave Duerson, both from Bend, OR, fished Sarasota Bay with me on Monday, April 28th. They had action with trout and bluefish on Ultra Hair Clouser flies at Stephens Point and near Buttonwood Harbor. The best fish of the day was a 26" snook that Dave sight fished with a Clouser fly along Sister Key.
Quent Daggett and his fishing partner Dave, both from Portland, OR, fished the same areas with me on Tuesday and Wednesday. Fish thinned out and the action slowed in skinny water following a front on Monday afternoon, but they had some action with trout and bluefish on Ultra Hair Clouser flies on deep grass flats near Buttonwood Harbor.
Bill Beauchamp, from Bradenton, FL and his brother, Brian, fished the same areas with me on Thursday. They caught and released trout and bluefish on DOA Deadly combos and CAL jigs with shad tails in the same areas that produced for us earlier in the week. Despite fishing hard for reds and snook in skinny water, they didn't cooperate.
I spent Friday getting myself packed for my annual trip to Andros South Bonefish Lodge. The lodge is one of only a few lodges on the south end of Andros Island. I'll follow up on that trip in a separate report within a few days.
Tight Lines,
