Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report
Action on the deep grass flats was hot early in the week as a severe front approached. Trout to 22″, pompano, Spanish mackerel, bluefish, jacks, ladyfish, grouper, ladyfish, and other species hit jigs over grass in water between 4′ deep and 10 feet deep. The flats north of New Pass were best. Pompano were thick in the passes later in the week. The bottom of the falling tide was best and there were plenty of ladyfish mixed in to keep the rods bent. Action on the flats slowed later in the week as persistent wind had the was churned up a bit. A trip to the Manatee River produced some nice jacks on Rapala X-Raps and white Gulp Jerk Shad on a jig head. We missed a few snook as well.
