Florida Tarpon Fishing Report Pine Island Sound With the first cold front that passed and the shorter days the water temps are climbing down and snook know to fatten up for the winter when during cold fronts they will lay up for days with out eating. Snook are being taken in good numbers all across Charlotte Harbor with slot size fish being the normal. Redfish should be on the move towards winter flats where on a sunny day after a cool morning you will be able to find them tailing for food and warming up in the sun. Kingfish are still being caught close to shore along with grouper snapper and a few cobia. I fished an extreem low tide yesterday for tailing redfish in Pine Island Sound. The day was less than banner but there where redfish tailing in four areas. Me and Capt Scott Hughes caught two fish to the boat, cast at numerous fish with no reaction, missed numerous hooksets, and pulled the hook on the last fish at the boat before landing what looked to be a top slot redfish. If It had been a tournment day we would have scored but not likely in the top total weight about nine pounds.
