On some of the deeper grass flats the trout, ladyfish, jack crevelle, and spanish mackeral have been feeding on the schools of small baitfish providing fast action for anglers. This type of fishing is great for novice anglers and kids because there is not very much technique to hooking the fish and there is lots of action so kids will be entertained. There have also been some schools of redfish roaming the flats and the action with the schooling fish should increase in the next couple weeks as the water cools more. Just in the past week the water temps have dropped into the low 80s and even high 70s in some areas at first light.

The month of October is always a great month to fish the south shore of Tampa Bay and catch a mixed bag of quality fish. There is not as much boat traffic on the water and the fish are chewing thier faces off starting to prepare for winter. Since we are still out of season I have availabilty and would love to get you out on the water with friends and family to make some awesome memories!
