Good sheepshead action in Sarasota

Capt. Jim Klopfer
February 13, 2017
Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report

The sheepshead migration is in full swing as we are just coming off of the full moon. Good numbers of these tasty saltwater panfish are moving into Big Pass, New Pass, and surrounding docks, bridges, and oyster bars. Live or frozen shrimp fished on the bottom will provide good action. Some decent mangrove snapper and juvenile gag grouper are also mixed in.

The bite on the deep grass flats has also been good throughout the area. Speckled trout, bluefish, pompano, and ladyfish hit Bass Assassin jigs from Long Bar south to Robert's Bay. Snook are still around as it has not been cold enough to push them up in the creeks and canals.
