Fall Fishing in Full Swing

Tampa Bay is alive with bait, and the fish are very active. Variety this time of year is amazing. I spent 8 hours on the Merry Pier Saturday, and the bounty included legal gag grouper, big black drum, Spanish macks, snook, cobia and big flounder. Here’s Tim’s catch:

My buddy Mike frequently fishes Blind Pass around 76th Ave in St. Pete Beach. On Friday, he bagged a nice slot redfish, and a 20″ flounder:

    Okay Steve, Give away my top secret fishing spot…(lol) This will affect your clearence. Thanks for publishing this shot, I keep trying to get another for you but the fish won’t cooperate. One of these mornings… I spotted the snook running along the wall at noon today. Weird, huh? Great incoming tide but it’s really hot out there. Great site you have here!
