Trip Summary

Booked a trip with Bill of Bradenton and his son Randy from Ohio. We fished one day in Sarasota mixing up a little offshore reef in the morning, where we caught Trigger fish, Flounder, Snapper, Grouper, and even an early season Snook off the reef. In the afternoon we headed inshore where we caught multiple Trout and then got into very large school of Jacks that were just a ton of fun. Two days later, we went to Charlotte Harbor to fish opening day of Snook season. Unfortunately, no one told the Snook it was opening day. I had scouted it the day before, and the fish were stacked up. But that day, a front came through and churned up the water, so we ended up only catching three. We still had a lot of fun, also catching numerous Trout, Lady Fish, Jacks, etc.
