Spanish Mackerel, Grunts, Mangrove Snapper, Sharks and Kingfish are abundant and fun to catch on light line. Large schools of bait are still moving north ...full report |

06/29/09 10:11 PM Captain Keith Tomlinson | The fishing this past week has been good. The weather has made thing a little challenging though with the wind and spotty thunderstorms. We are definitely into a summer pattern now. The most consistent bite is in the early morning right up until the heat of the day starts.
When fishing the many creeks and near shore islands this area of the Nature Coast has to offer I like to use top water plugs ...full report |

 | Sarasota Florida
06/15/09 9:31 PM seaweed | The weather had been what I call, a little squirrelly but now has smoothed out. A light east wind in the morning will make it a lot easier to spot the Tarpon schools running the beaches.
This has been an excellent year on the bay for Gray Snapper. The average size is about 14” and a few have been up to 16 and 18 inches. They like to hang out around docks, rocks and bridge fenders. I have found ...full report |

06/13/09 3:00 PM Capt Gary Burch | On the morning of May 30th, I fished with Ron and his son Hayden, aboard the Salt Aire. As we headed for our first location, I observed the water temperature had finally reached 83, a normal range for this time of year. I also noticed we would be fishing the bottom half of the outgoing tide. We entered a flat area in Clearwater that was productive five days earlier. Schools of Redfish have been ...full report |

 | Dunedin Causeway
09/24/08 7:15 AM Snooker_Stotz | When we got to the bait hole the tide was a little higher than we normally like to see it. The bait was holding just right outside of nets reach. We were patient and got bait.
Headed out for the Causeway. The wind was ripping pretty good. Forcing us to hits some spots we usually don't.
Fishing was slow for the most part.
However, we did see a decent snook (upper Slot) by the bridge. Also ...full report |

We went fishing anyway near the Skyway Bridge and we caught trout, a sea bass, snapper. We sat through periods of down pouring of rain, but it was fun. Brant ...full report |
