Great event held by the guys at paddle-fishing.com. The PFTS #3, "The Tackle Box" was held January 28 2012 in the Fort Desoto area. The fishing was good. Manages to take home the 1st place prize for largest Trout. Caught many good Trout throughout the day but could not get any Red's to the boat.

January Report
January proved to be a great month for fishing the back country rivers and creeks here in SW Florida Anglers fishing with Shallow Pocket Fishing caught and released many good Snook on artificial baits. With the weather and water temps staying a bit warmer this year, the bite in these locations will slow down. I am expecting to start seeing more Snook heading back out on to the flats. There has been no shortage of Redfish and Trout on the flats of Sarasota/Tampa Bay. We have been catching most of the Red's and Trout on top waters and Riptide soft plastics. Look for the Redfish to be in the sand holes. Take your time fishing each hole. The water in my region has been pretty clean so the fish are very spooky. Down size your fluorocarbon leader and make long casts. Steve Gibson 941-256-5833 www.shallowpocketsfishing.com |
