Tampa Bay - Saltwater Fishing Report
Just the other day I got a call from my good
buddy Capt. Lori Deaton of Lady Fish Charters.
Capt. Lori asked if I had a charter in the a.m..
When I told her I was wide open she asked if
my financee, Ashton and I might want to do some
snookin' up river.
Only after leaving the SkyWay with the the live
well darker than a lunar eclipse ,did we head
east towards the Little Manatee River.
Once up the river it didn't take long to locate
fish, and it took less time to realize who was
going to catch them all. Ashton often mates on
my boat and spends alot of time baiting hooks
and dropping anchor, but seldom gets to fish.
However, this day she did get to fish and fish
she did.
Ashton managed to land some nice snook free-
linig live sardines under the mangroves. A
nameless cut just north of Devil's Elbow proved
to be the hot spot of the day and it was here
that Ashton boated her slam.
Black Point also gave up a nice snook. However,
the water closer to the mouth of the river was
noticeably clearer. I beleieve this contributed
to the fish being a 'lil spookier. Not to mention
the water temperature may have been a few degrees
cooler on the bay side of the river (probably
under the 60 degree mark which is border line
lockjaw for snook)
After a good day of fishing, our bellies
full of beer, and Capt. Lori's awesome turkey
sandwhiches we called it a day.
If you would like to book a trip with
Capt. Lori of Lady Fish Charters she would
be happy to put you on the fish! To contact
Lori call 813-967-5032
Till next time , have a safe and quality day on
the water. Capt. Sean
