Posted April 14, 2008

Fishing is starting to get good in the inshore and offshore waters of Naples and Marco Island. Lots of bait in the water so the fish are getting active. We are having some slow days but most are pretty good with nice catches of Snook and Redfish along with a Tarpon or two on both Bait and Fly. This week might be a little tough with the front though.

Super Fly fishing this past week but me thinks next week is going to be a little tough at least the first part of the week. Jig and bait fishing should continue strong even through the cold front. Read more...
