Big snook, redfish, sharks, and tarpon highlight the current fishing report. As we get into middle April, the fishing has been heating up weekly and becoming outstanding. With the water finally back firmly in the 70s and close to 80 degrees, the bait is plentiful. Lots of quality mangrove snapper, big jack crevalle, and sheepshead are also bring smiles, and pulling drags!

With plentiful bait comes big snook. We are hooking at least one really big fish on every trip, and on most trips we are hammering the mid size, and smaller snook. to put it into perspective, in terms...

With plentiful bait comes big snook. We are hooking at least one really big fish on every trip, and on most trips we are hammering the mid size, and smaller snook. to put it into perspective, in terms
of freshwater fishing back home for many folks, its like catching a dozen 2 – 3 pound bass or walleye, that fight twice as hard, with the opportunity to catch a huge one.

The big redfish have also been gobbling up bait bending rods, and ripping drags right along with the snook. We haven’t been doing anything specific for the redfish, they are just on the move with the warming water and the oncoming burst of life the water brings every spring and early summer. This time of year, the big reds seem to be in the same spots as the big snook, which adds to the intrigue when you see a huge boil and hear that drag start squealing.

The fishing has been great the best few weeks with the warming water. Pilchards and thread fans are the Bait of choice.

This past week, the highlight for most trips, especially with the kids are the bonnethead sharks. Yesterday I believe we caught 10, and these young boys wanted nothing more than to see a shark. So how about 10?! Using light tackle with shrimp as bait, they put up a great fight and were great for the table as well!

    Tyler is a great guide who showed up early with live bait he caught earlier in the morning. He checked to confirm what we were hoping to catch, snook and tarpon. He knew where to go in rookery bay, aptly rebaited the fishing hooks. We caught a snook, several young snapper and jacks, and then several athletic tarpon that put up a good fight. He told us fishing stories and we saw the beautiful Marco island and rookery bay islands where dolphins and sea turtles were swimming. He provided many opportunities for us to catch big fish! It was a great time for the family.

    Capt. Isaiah was THE MAN!! Had us limited out on snappers within an hour then we headed to the snook honey hole! We caught around 30 fish and had an absolute blast! Cooked half our catch for dinner the same day! While he filleted fish he let me and my boys feed huge tarpon by hand! Just an amazing day on the water with Capt. Isaiah! Highly recommend
