		<title>Winter 2012 Fishing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK, time to catch up on my fishing blog. Went out in early January with Dick, Tim, and Joe. The target species was amberjack, so we headed to the surefire spot in 105 feet. First drop, first fish. Second drop, second fish. And so it went. The amberjack were big, hungry and plentiful. We tried [...]]]></description>

		<title>Miss Pass-A-Grille Half Day Trip</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I found myself at Merry Pier a couple Saturdays ago, and Cap&#8217;t Randy invited me out for the 1/2 day on The Miss Pass-A-Grille deep sea fishing boat. The weather was perfect &#8211; sunny and warm with calm winds. Off we went. There were about 20 others aboard, including several families &#8211; the boat [...]]]></description>

		<title>2011 Winter Fishing in Tampa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The flounder run has wound down. While the fish were plentiful and hungry over Thanksgiving, they appear to have made the big push offshore to spawn. So, now we have that slow time between when the flounder leave and the sheepshead show up. There have been a few sheepies around, but they are few and [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Great Fall Flounder Run</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While snook, snapper and other fish have been spotty this year, the flounder have taken center stage. With a long Thanksgiving weekend, I spent several mornings at The Merry Pier in Pass-A-Grille fishing for these tasty bottom dwellers. Flounder are ambush predators, lying on the sandy bottom waiting for prey to venture too close. They&#8217;ll [...]]]></description>

		<title>Offshore? No. Flounder? Yes!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With grouper season winding down, Kevin, Dick and I had planned an offshore trip for Saturday. We were going to hit wrecks and ledges for amberjack and grouper, but&#8230; Saturday morning, winds were steady from the North at 15 knots, so we decided not to chance it in a 22&#8242; boat. We ended up fishing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tampa Bay Fishing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite the windy weekend, the fish are still active and feeding in the Tampa Bay area. The recent fronts have scattered the inshore bait a bit, but flounder, grouper, redfish and sheepshead continue to cooperate. Here&#8217;s an oversized red landed at Merry Pier on Sunday:

And one of several snook Mike (from Michagan) landed on Saturday [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fall Fishing Fires Up!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite the wind and rain this weekend, I managed to fish both Blind Pass and the Merry Pier. I was pleased to see the best show of bait so far in 2011- nice frisky greenbacks were EVERYWHERE! And, with the bait, come the predators. This weekend, it was Jack Cravelle. Hundreds. Thousands. OK, maybe millions [...]]]></description>

		<title>Grouper Season Opens</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Saturday marked the opening of the fall gag grouper season. So, I loaded up on sardines and headed to the Merry Pier in Pass-A-Grille. There was a strong morning outgoing tide, which somewhat limited the grouper options. But, I did manage to pull 5 of &#8216;em out from under the dock. The biggest was just [...]]]></description>

		<title>September Already?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow, the summer is FLYING by&#8230; and fishing has been in the doldrums. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, there ARE fish around &#8211; just few and far between. Merry Pier, Blind Pass and other St. Pete Beach fishing spots have been yielding flounder, mangrove snapper, mackerel, gags (and a few red) grouper, snook and trout. Just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Summer Fishing Patterns</title>
		<description><![CDATA[OK, yeah, I&#8217;ve been slacking a little keeping this site updated. But, hey, fishing has been less than spectacular recently. The Pompano have all moved outside the passes, snook remain elusive since the big freeze of 2009, grouper and amberjack are out of season and the snapper have been spotty. But, for the first time [...]]]></description>
