We are fishing the inshore and nearshore reefs catching a ton of sheepshead and snappers. Fishing has been heating up with the early spring temps. Snook and redfish are getting hungry too! Book now we are booking up fast.

It is officially winter here in Sarasota, Fl and the water is cold. It has been all about the Sheepshead and Snapper fishing around the docks and rocks.

The last couple days have been nothing short of fishy, any and every species you can think of inshore and nearshore. The sheepshead bite has been as good as it’s ever been. Getting limits and personal best fish for customers. Lane snapper are plentiful on nearshore wrecks and reefs, and the redfish and trout have been keeping us busy inshore with a few snook mixed in.
The cold hasn’t slowed the bite down one bit. Fishing shrimp on jig heads for our bottom and structure dwelling fish and popping corks for the inshore fishing.
Sight fishing reds has been the go-to on grass flats, pot holes and mangroves. We’ve been catching upper slot trout and getting a few over slot gator trout on every outing. The bite is bound to stay hot with some of these strong flowing tides we get in the winter months.

    Excellent guide! We had a wonderful day with Bobby. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the trip wasting no time to change spots when the bite stopped. There were 4 of us and we had plenty space on his boat. We landed many snooks, mangrove snappers, trout, and more. We highly recommend Bobby and look forward to fishing with him in the future!

    Trip: Fly Fishing Port Charlotte

  • ★★★★★
    We had a great time. Very knowledgeable and capable guide. Fishing can be tough and there was a lot of pressure from other people. We moved several times to stay on the fish and Capt. Bobby seemed to alway know exactly where to find them. We caught a lot including snook, trout, and redfish. Highly recommend, kid friendly, quality boat and equipment.
