This week, fishing aboard the “Coastal Fishing Adventures” out of CB’s Saltwater Outfitters on Siesta Key. Early in the week I fished the “Darrell Williams” group. We fished the deep grass flats and shorelines on the outgoing low tide and caught small trout ladyfish, bluefish, jack crevalle and spanish mackerel using live shrimp and DOA cal baits with white 3/8oz jig heads.

Mid week I fished the “Josh Wise” group. Because of the approaching cold front it was one of those tough mornings when the fish didn’t turn on till until the beginning of the tide towards the end.

They had a fun day catching their first saltwater fish. They caught jack crevalle, small speckled sea trout, ladyfish and small bonnethead shark. Later in the week I chartered the “Toni Rosati” group. It was a very windy northwest wind. We started out early in north Sarasota bay before it got real windy.

We started working on the windward side of a grass flat and sandbar. It was one of those magical mornings we all look for. From the beginning they caught several large and small speckled sea trout, jack crevalle, spanish mackerel, black sea bass, ladyfish and small grouper all on DOA cal baits with a 1/4 and 3/8oz white jig heads.

After about two hours into the trip it got really windy so we moved to the lee side of an island and continued until the end of the trip.
