Tampa Bay - Saltwater Fishing Report
Fishing is still HOT to EPIC!! FLY FISHING triple headers on 9-13lb JACK CREVALLE. I have it on video! That is pretty good! Getting your limits of POMPANO to 7 lbs. I would say that is pretty good too! PERMIT to 10lbs for a kid that is 11 years old all by himself!!! Well you have to go to the Yucatan Peninsula for that and spend thousands and thousands of dollars! Especially in January February time frame! Go figure! I have gotten good to great PERMIT bites all the way through the season! Bull Shark on Top water lures is a sight to behold and the guys from Raymond James Financial saw it. 5 Other trips got in on the action! Really cool! One client had 4 different sharks on the line in one cast and then landed about a 90lb BULL SHARK! Pretty neat for sure! SNAPPER are on full throttle! SHEEP HEAD are a guaranteed! Some really large ones 4-5lbs have been coming to the table! Figuratively speaking they are really tasty! Black Drum are a consistent bite! I like the smaller ones to eat so we let the big ones go! Flounder to 18 inches are a sight in the cold weather! Anyone love flounder filets! Call me if you need me!
Tampa Bay Fishing Forecast:
I expect the bite to be excellent for the species I have been targeting. Days for REDFISH and TROUT are going to be getting better! I expect Mid-March for the tides and weather to cooperate for those 15-30 REDFISH days! SNOOK are going to be a target soon! I leave them alone out of season! Just a mind-set I have and share with a bunch of other captains! Go get them guys!!!
Target Species:
Permit, Pompano, Jack Crevalle, Snapper, Sheepshead, Redfish, Tarpon, Shark
