Weekend Fishing

Clearwater Beach and Hurricane Pass, Well the fishing has really turned on and anywhere you go should be good. We decided to check out Clearwater Pass and the markers we hit the #1 Marker and had some great luck. After Baiting up we caught about 4 Spanish Mackerel on light colored Jigs and silver rattle Traps. Then we decided to move towards Hurricane Pass and try some inshore flats for trout. but on the way we thought we would troll for some larger spanish macks. We hooked up with about 4 more macks some up to 20". Once inshore we hooked into some trout and even a Cobia hit our small live shrimp. And we ended up landing a 4 ft. Bonnet Shark (Hammerhead family). The fishing is picking up and we're staying on them. Reports we have are of Tarpon schooling and rolling near the skyway and inner bay bridges. Red fish and trout are all over the flats. Permit are on the closer wrecks hitting smaller crabs. Pompano are on the beaches. Large King fish are on the inner side of Egmont Key. Spanish Macks are all along the Beaches. Tight Lines
