Snook Fishing 2023!
As we approach the year 2023, many anglers are eager to know what they can expect from snook fishing in the Tampa Bay area. Based on recent trends and environmental factors, we anticipate that this year will be a great one for snook fishing in Old Tampa Bay and Sarasota. In recent years, snook populations have rebounded in both of these areas thanks to conservation efforts and favorable weather conditions. As such, anglers can expect to find healthy populations of snook throughout the region during the upcoming season.

Tampa Bay Fishing Report
Don't wait another moment - now is your chance to experience the thrill of reel fishing! Come head to the bay now and you will have no problem finding Redfish and Speckled Trout biting. Take advantage of this December weather while it's still here, and make a memory you'll never forget.

Tarpon
Although the season for catching tarpon is almost over, it's still possible to hook them in deeper waters. Stone crabs make a great meal for these royal fish, so they prefer areas where crabbing activity has been heavy. Watch out: once you've hooked one of these big fellas and are playing him close to your boat, he might just swallow your line whole!
