Largo Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Largo
It's winter time and shrimp fishing has been very productive for sheepshead, black drum, and redfish! But even with the water being freezing, sheepshead keep the action rolling! It gives all of the other species, like trout and snook, a break till it warms up!

Scott with the cold snaps the sheepshead are moving in on docks and rock piles along with some mangrove snapper and key west grunts. On the warmer days in the afternoon between fronts the snook will come out and feed with some reds mixed in. Trout are feeding in some of the deeper grass flats and canals

\Lots of redfish, sheepshead and seatrout inshore. While nearshore the hogfish and gag grouper bite has been great!

Fishing has been on fire lately both nearshore and inshore. Nearshore trips have been producing steady action with hogfish, multiple species of grouper, porgies, gray snapper, and mackerel, while inshore fishing has been just as productive with solid grouper, mackerel, trout, redfish, and snook showing up consistently. Conditions have lined up perfectly, the bite has been strong, and it’s been a great mix of variety and quality fish across the board.

Bowfishing action is slow but still rewarding during the cold weather months in Tampa. My customers are rewarded with some nice fish like big Sheepshead, Mullet and Gar

Shallow-water fishing has been absolutely on fire lately, especially for redfish and trout, with artificial baits stealing the show. Clean water and consistent tides have these fish pushed up skinny, actively feeding and aggressively reacting to well-presented lures. Early mornings and late afternoons have been prime, but even mid-day bites have been strong when the sun helps warm the flats.
For redfish, sight-casting in ankle-to-knee-deep water has been lights out. Soft plastics, paddle tails, and weedless jerkbaits worked slowly in front of cruising or tailing fish are getting instant reactions. Trout have been stacked along potholes, edges, and deeper pockets...

For redfish, sight-casting in ankle-to-knee-deep water has been lights out. Soft plastics, paddle tails, and weedless jerkbaits worked slowly in front of cruising or tailing fish are getting instant reactions. Trout have been stacked along potholes, edges, and deeper pockets within the flats, crushing suspending twitch baits and soft plastics worked with a steady retrieve and occasional pause.
The key has been stealth, accurate casts, and matching the retrieve to the fish’s mood. With bait present and water temps just right, artificial anglers are having some of the best action of the season. If you’re looking for explosive strikes, visual eats, and nonstop action, now is the time to get shallow and throw artificials
