A Complete Bait & Tackle Shop

The trout fishing over the last few weeks has been very good most days. Most of these fish have been caught at the northern end of Big Sarasota Bay using flies and jig heads with plastic bodies. We’ve also found a few tripletail around the few remaining crab floats in the nearshore gulf.
