The fishing has been amazing this past week, due in part to the new moon.

The fishing has been great this past new moon week.

The fishing the last couple weeks has been very productive, especially so in this new moon week. I’ve been fishing the grass flats and passes with live bait and I’ve had many days catching and releasing over 20 Snook up too, and over slot fish.

On the grass flats the Trout bite has been consistent and the Snapper bite as well has been good on the right tides. Mix in a few Jacks, a couple Flounder and Redfish makes for a very active trip.

Anglers fishing with me, out of CB’s Saltwater Outfitters on Siesta Key, had good action in Sarasota Bay with me recently.
