Sarasota - Saltwater Fishing Report

Clients caught two species this week, snook and jack crevalle. The only pattern that I had that was producing was casting lures and flies in rivers, creeks, and residential canals. Fly anglers caught snook and jacks on Clouser patterns. Spin anglers cast and trolled Rapala X-Raps and Bass Assassin jigs.  It is important to keep moving and casting, the jacks in particular move around. Trolling is an excellent way to locate them. I fished the Myakka River on Friday and we caught a big jack trolling there as well.
