This past week saw Tristan, from Hamptonville NC, catch this beautiful spotted sea trout while fishing Longboat Key with Capt. Brandon. The weather was warm to be sure but being on the water seemed to take a bite out of the heat. Still, it’s best to get out on the water early to avoid the high sun. Remember, if you plan on being out on the water bring along plenty of sunblock, and don’t forget some protective clothing.

I've been a fishing guide the Sarasota , Boca Grande area for over 25 years. My Sarasota trips are mostly family oriented 1/2 day fishing trips involving kids who love to catch all the family fun fish. My Boca Grande trips are for the more experienced spin or fly fishing angler.
