If you can go fishing now is the time to do it. With the warmer days we have been having the spring bite is starting to happen but the winter time fish are still here and feeding, so the whole gang is feeding. Here are some of the pictures from today's fishing charter,they ended catching 10 species.

This week’s fishing around Tampa Bay has been strong and trending upward as water temperatures continue to warm.

Redfish have been one of the most consistent bites. Fish are holding on shallow flats early in the morning, especially on calm, sunny days. Singles and small groups are cruising shorelines, mangrove edges, and potholes. As the sun gets higher and tides rise, reds are pushing tighter to cover and feeding aggressively. Artificial lures have been producing well, particularly soft plastics and weedless presentations in skinny water.

Spotted Seatrout are set up across grass flats and along deeper edges. Quality trout are...

This week’s fishing around Tampa Bay has been strong and trending upward as water temperatures continue to warm.

Redfish have been one of the most consistent bites. Fish are holding on shallow flats early in the morning, especially on calm, sunny days. Singles and small groups are cruising shorelines, mangrove edges, and potholes. As the sun gets higher and tides rise, reds are pushing tighter to cover and feeding aggressively. Artificial lures have been producing well, particularly soft plastics and weedless presentations in skinny water.

Spotted Seatrout are set up across grass flats and along deeper edges. Quality trout are
being caught just off the flats in slightly deeper water, with the best action coming on moving tides. Early morning and late afternoon continue to be the prime windows, and soft plastics and suspending baits are getting consistent bites.

With the warmer water temperatures, the snook bite is starting to come alive. Snook are staging along mangrove shorelines, dock edges, and creek mouths, and their activity is increasing daily. As temperatures continue to rise, expect snook to become more aggressive, particularly on outgoing tides and around areas with current.

Overall, conditions are shaping up perfectly for spring fishing in Tampa Bay. Warming water, cooperative tides, and active fish make this an excellent time to get on the water targeting redfish and trout, with snook action improving by the week.
