the mangrove snapper bite is still strong right now! they are feeding on the flats in the mangroves and alot of places in between. snook fishing also has been great as the water temp has cooled a little bit they are biting great in the backcountry and rivers at this time as normal scaled sardines are the key bait the out going tide has been best. trout fishing remains good on the deep water grass flats in tampa bay and south of tampa bay. mackerel fishing also has been great around the deep spoil areas of tampa bay and ruskin. redfish have been around in large number on the flats they are eating cut bait and live scaled sardines a quite approach with trolling motor will yeild best results. tight lines captain tony frankland www.catchsnook.com
