Naples, Florida - Saltwater Fishing Report
South of Marco Island, Ten Thousand Islands
Well the backwater fishing has been pretty good the first two weeks of December. The water temps have been higher than normal in the mid 70 range and I think the snook, redfish and tarpon are a bit confused.
Last week the water was clear and sight fishing was good along the oyster studded shore lines of the Ten Thousand Islands. The fly trips have been good using brown and white and green and white clousers. I had Mr Jerry Jones from NJ out last week and he ended up with 3 nice reds on the 7wt all over 25 inch. I had Darren from NJ also out Monday and he hit snook and reds on the spin rods. Come join me. Check out snookhooker.com.
