Trip Summary

FISHING REPORT FOR THE WEEK OF APRIL 3RD 2017 Fishing has continued to get better for Spanish Mackeral and Kingfish. There are large numbers of Kingfish on the nearshore reefs, but they are on the small size. Lots of small keepers. There are huge schools of Spanish Mackeral making their way into Tampa Bay. It is pretty easy to get a limit of 15 Spanish per person right now using clark spoons or live pilchards in the bay. The fish are chasing huge schools of small sardines as they come into the bay from the gulf. Bottom fishing has continued to be hit and miss. The Goliath Grouper are biting well, but the Mangrove Snappers are continuing to be a bit elusive. The inshore bite is very consistent, with loads of snook biting near oyster bars in the South part of the bay. Also the Trout bite has been very good on grass flats from 4-6 ft of water on live pilchards. The Kingfish and Spanish are a great fight on light tackle, and they are here in great numbers right now! Come out and lets have some fun!! Tight Lines!! Captain Tony Zain
