I learnt that going out expecting to catch non stop after a full moon isn’t going to happen, the light from the moon has the fish feeding all night, so you need to work a little harder to bag your catch.

The water, as always, was wonderful, but as should be expected, once the afternoon rolls in, the heat out on the open deck can get quite unbearable. Use caution if taking smaller children and make sure to hydrate frequently.

Since the water is getting very hot in August most of the catch would be in earlier morning hours. Gulf fish will get lazy towards 11am - noon and not bite as much this time of the year. Therefore you are better off with a 4 hour trip and leaving as early as possible.

I think there is great potential for some great fishing here. We had a tropical storm due to start during the event of the day if our charter, and I think that affected the bites, but we saw A LOT of fish, they just weren’t very aggressive. Beautiful area to fish, plenty of opportunity, especially with a guide like we had that is highly experienced.

It was hot. We came prepared for the heat so it wasn't a big deal. Had we not, it would have been miserable.

Bring your sunscreen and hat! Go early before the sun comes up and figure on fish not biting after 11 am or a late evening trip to avoid the heat.

Fishing out of John’s Pass in July was hot! We went off shore (a 25 minute boat ride) and it paid off with lots of fish.

St Pete fishing today was good. Target species are limited by the high water temperature in the low 90s. Even so, we had a real nice outing. Will book again in the fall and then in spring when the water temps are better.

Biggest piece of advice, watch the moon phases. What hurt us was the fact we have had a full moon the last night or two, along with warm waters made for lazy fish during the day.
