Trout Action Good in Sarasota & Charlotte Harbor by

(2011-01-09 06:34:59)
[Sarasota] Anglers fishing with me on my Action Craft flats skiff the Snook Fin-Addict, out of CB's Saltwater Outfitters on Siesta Key, caught and released trout, reds and flounder on jigs and flies during the past couple of weeks. A strong front with high winds came roaring through Sunday morning, 12/26, dropping water temperatures back into the low 50's and forcing the cancellation of a couple of trips. Cold water kept fish concentrated in channels, creeks and deep edges of flats.
