That is one prehistoric looking fish she's holding there.

Although the gass flats of Sarasota Bay have been relatively slow, the nearshore gulf and passes have been pretty good.

We have been catching some nice tripletail around crab traps in the gulf and lots of spanish mackerel, and big ladyfish in the passes which is what you’d expect this time of year.

There’s a nice early morning crispness in the air this time of year at first light but temps warm up quickly after 10 am. Overall water temperatures are about right where they should be.
