January fishing in Tampa Bay
Fishing between cold fronts has really been excellent
As the front approach, the in shore bite goes from normal to red hot there's been a solid red fish bite, especially on the afternoon high tides
And when the north wind. Pushes the morning, low tides, even lower than they are forecasted to be set up for some excellent site fishing as it comes back in good numbers on cobia this year and. The numbers of coastal sharks and bull sharks are strong as usual
The big temp drop we're having this week will trigger a Sheepshead spawn that should last through the month of February and as the moon's approach the mangrove snapper will be a welcome addition to the Sheepshead bite

Shallow water fishing has been excellent in Clearwater this winter. Huge trout and big redfish are the targets. Top water action early in the day has brought several trout in the plus 20 inch class to the net. Rapala skitter v's worked through the mullet schools will not only attract the attention of the trout but also the redfish. This is the time of year that the big trout move into the super shallows and this year is the best we've seen in many years.

Tailing redfish have been spooky but catchable during the first half of the incoming tide. Soft plastic baits like the Z-man jerk shadz tipped with pro- cure scent are working well with the right cast and the right approach.

Lots of schoolie trout can be caught in the slightly deeper water just off the shallow flats. 1/8 ounce jig heads with a Z-man jerk shadz catch em all day long. Making them easy targets in the 25' sea hunt if you have a larger crew.

Redfish have also been caught in the sea hunt this month. Top of the tide is the time to soak some fresh baits for redfish hanging in the mullet schools.

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
