Flamingo, FL Fishign report

[Merijo]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Snook fishing has been the ticket in Florida bay with redfish in the mix and a couple of smaller tarpon here and there. Catches the last two weeks include a 35lb tarpon and a slew of small snook caught in the smaller backcountry creeks and ponds and we jumped a bunch of tarpon in the 50 lb range in larger creeks on top water lures, Tim Slawson with his two sons’ Jeff and Chris combined to catch over 20 redfish the largest at 12 lbs on live pilchards fished around structure in moving water. Snook fishing has been good as always this time of year but most of the snook are a little smaller than normal, on less windy days however we are finding a lot of small schools of large snook 8 to 15 fish in a pod swimming on the flats most of these fish are over 10 lbs, this weekend we landed a 24 lb linesider on the flats with 8 more over 10 lbs all of these fish were caught sight fishing on artifical lures. And you have no idea how many snook we saw like that!!! I have had a couple days when the fishing wasn’t that great like a cold front passing over first thing in the morning and shutting everything down but for the most part the fish has been very good and I expect the same for the time being, if the weather remains warm the fishing will get better.
