The redfish bite in Tampa Bay right now is absolutely on fire—arguably the best it’s been in the last three years. Anglers are reporting strong numbers of slot-sized reds, and even some overslot bruisers showing up around the mangroves, oyster bars, and grass flats. The water temps have warmed just enough to get them feeding aggressively, especially on moving tides. What’s really exciting is the consistency. It’s not just a few hot spots—it’s bay-wide. From the flats near Weedon Island to the mangroves of Cockroach Bay and the spoil islands around Fort De Soto, redfish are cruising in solid schools...

The redfish bite in Tampa Bay right now is absolutely on fire—arguably the best it’s been in the last three years. Anglers are reporting strong numbers of slot-sized reds, and even some overslot bruisers showing up around the mangroves, oyster bars, and grass flats. The water temps have warmed just enough to get them feeding aggressively, especially on moving tides. What’s really exciting is the consistency. It’s not just a few hot spots—it’s bay-wide. From the flats near Weedon Island to the mangroves of Cockroach Bay and the spoil islands around Fort De Soto, redfish are cruising in solid schools again. Live bait like pinfish and greenbacks are working well, but artificials like gold spoons, paddletails, and topwaters early morning are getting crushed too. This kind of action hasn’t been seen since before some of the red tide issues, so local anglers are pumped. It’s a good sign for the health of the fishery and definitely a moment worth taking advantage of if you’re fishing Tampa Bay right now.

Groupers have been chewing consistently, and they are eating everything right now—cut bait, live bait, and artificials. Speckled trout have made a comeback in the bay area, and we are seeing a lot of overslots more consistently every day! Good eating meat in the box! They are eating live pinfish, shrimp, and white bait like they have never seen them before. Big black drums are showing up in good numbers on the bridges, and they are slamming the artificial and cut crabs. The snook and redfish are getting back to their normal spring patterns of eating cut bait, white bait,...
