We had a fun past couple of weeks of fishing! The mangrove snapper bite has turned on, and we are getting some fat ones! We have also been able to find some nice size kingfish and amberjacks patrolling the reefs around 7 miles offshore. We have been catching the majority of our fish on dead bait fished on the surface and on the bottom. There have been some nice gag grouper around also. They just opened on June 1st and they are a very tasty fish and a great fighter. We are definitely in our spring bite now! The fishing is great on the near shore reefs and inshore the tarpon are here in great numbers. What a great time of year to come out and catch a variety of fish! This week we have had to cancel some trips due to wind and rain. Next week looks fabulous with light winds and just a chance of afternoon thunderstorms. Captain Doug Deming has reported some really nice numbers of snook caught on the grass flats of Tampa Bay, along with some nice trout action and a few redfish. Please give us a call to book your offshore or inshore trip as soon as possible as dates are beginning to book up for the next couple of weeks! Tight Lines Captain Tony Zain
