Persistent anglers succeeding in Sarasota

Fishing was fair to steady this week, depending on the trip, with clients "earning" their fish on most trips. Anglers casting Bass Assassin jigs caught speckled trout, silver trout, bluefish, pompano, and ladyfish on the deep flats. Middlegrounds and Marina Jacks were the top spots, though Capt Jon had a client catch a nice trout up north. He also caught whiting on shrimp in some deeper holes. Action was steady on the deep grass on Friday and Capt Jim had a fly angler catch a nice snook on a Clouser Minnow Saturday morning on a shallow bar with bait on it. {%image_id=69716%}
