Bob with the Snook in his hands, and his friend John, both from PA, fished Sarasota Bay this past week.

Bob with the Snook in his hands, and his friend John, both from PA, fished Sarasota Bay this past week.

I fished two days this week on Sarasota Bay with John, who’s a regular customer of mine, and his friend Bob, both from Pennsylvania. Numerous trout were caught using DOA shrimp under a cork and or live shrimp under a cork. Using quarter ounce jig head and gulp also produced a number of fish.

Pictured is Bob holding a trophy snook that he successfully landed and released using the DOA shrimp. He had quite a battle as the wiley fish kept trying to escape the hook by going under the boat and around the motor.

To be honest I felt lucky that we were able to land it. John also landed a trophy size snook throwing a Topwater lure over shallow potholes on the flats. Weather and water are beautiful at this time of year and a pleasure to be out fishing.

Fishing has been a lifetime passion for me. Depending on the skill level of my clients what I like to do is put them on big fish using artificial lures. I like to educating and passing on my knowledge of local history and the many sights the area has to offer while we are on the water.
