Fishing Blog

Last weekend we headed down to Apollo beach me and my girlfreind and fished for a couple of hours. The snook are swarming everywhere down there. Just finding that dock with the best light is key. I was using a white artificial shad with a 1/4 ounce jig head. Stephanie freelined shrimp into the lights and landed 2 snook, I caught a total of 4 snook. In all 6 snook, in 2 hours so it was a good night.

Has anyone else got any snook reports?

Snook have started to move inland near docks and small channels. They are schooling in massive numbers around the Apollo beach area. They are feeding best on shrimp near the docs, look for docs with lighting.

The fishing has been decent if you can dodge the cold front winds. The water temperature is now reaching that magic number of 72 degrees. The skyway area is holding and abundant amount of trout, whiting, grouper, small sharks, a few mackerel and the occasional king fish. Me and my girlfreind and a few buddies went out last weekend and caught a few mackerel, Stephanie caught 2 black tips all by herself, good job!

 While stephanie was catching these blacktips, a guy stops to see the action and we get to talking and he is telling me that black tips get up to 300lbs, so I tell him in a nice way that he is crazy. If I am not mistaken the record is like 206. Can someone confirm this? anyway we had a great fishing trip. Is anyone else in the local area doing any good? I would be happy to hear your comments.
