Anglers fishing with me, out of CB’s Saltwater Outfitters on Siesta Key, had good action with trout, Spanish mackerel and pompano on DOA Lures in Sarasota Bay recently. Fly anglers also had some action catching and releasing trout on deep grass flats of Sarasota Bay.

Steve and Conner Pullum, from Hayesville, NC, had good action catching and releasing numerous trout to over 20”, Spanish mackerel and pompano on CAL jigs with shad tails and DOA Deadly Combos while fishing Sarasota Bay with me.

Pat Beckwith, from Sarasota, also fished Sarasota Bay and had some action catching and releasing trout on Clouser flies.

Tarpon are thinning in the coastal gulf as they move to inside waters. Look for reds in skinny water and snook around dock lights and in the surf. Deep grass flats are usually a good option for action for trout and more early in the day.

Our natural resources are under constant pressure from red tides and other algae blooms fueled by residential, industrial and agricultural runoff, toxic spills and intentional releases, freezes, increasing fishing pressure and habitat loss and degradation, please limit your kill, don’t kill your limit!
