Tampa Bay - Saltwater Fishing Report
Snook are big! every year the same thing happens and these fish amaze me with their antics. Eating bait and running at the boat, running under the mangroves, using oysterbars and points to run around, arial antics etc.. These fish can fight! I love them! So do my clients! Redfish are tasty and some are so big you can not keep them. I have some top slot spots that have been producing and doing real well! Visually speaking you can not get anything more adrenaline pumping then large schools hovering around the boat! Pretty cool indeed! Trout, Snapper, limits are pretty easy to come by! Shark are coming back and they are big! Some real big ones in real shallow water too! Kind of scary to be honest as I swim where these fish are so be ultra vigilant. No need to create a problem when you have the information. Just know these 8-9 foot fish over 400lbs fit in 3 feet at dead low tide. And can disappear in really shallow flats. Tarpon here and there but no guarantees. Mackerel cobia and all sorts of varieties like flounder fill in the days. Go out and make a memory! Get a video and some pictures and have fun!
Tampa Bay Fishing Forecast:
More large schools of redfish will be coming in. They are sketchy but if you listen and do the right things on the boat you will catch fish! Lots of them! Big ones and slot fish too! Snook are big! Season is coming up! Get ready because it will be real good!
Target Species:
Redfish, Snook, Trout, Shark, Cobia, Snapper
