The fall season has arrived... With lots of rain this month, the water temperature has started to fall. Lots of snook are starting to move and stage in close proximity to our passes, and the outer edges of the backcountry. Large schools of redfish are being found throughout the harbor and bays. Trout are being found over the deeper grasses in high flow areas. Tarpon are staging in the deeper pockets of the harbor for a late season feed before winter. For all those reasons, fall is a fantastic time to go fishing in South West Florida!!!

School is in... Not just for our children, but for another that holds a special place in our hearts, Redfish! Big schools of redfish are starting to show up around the fishery here in Palm Island, Florida.
Large numbers have started the pre-spawn pattern of grouping up to socially mingle, and increase their feeding opportunities. These schools will scour the flats and edges, looking for any movement of prey, and can most times be spotted by the color of the tightly packed school of 100's of Redfish! As our fall season approaches, it's a fantastic time to go fishing in South West Florida! Capt. Mike Slattery Summer time fishing is in full swing!!! With the addition of a "new to us" boat to our fleet, we have been in consistent Tarpon and snook fishing. The tarpon fishing is being done in Boca Grande pass, and on the beach front. Our Parker 25' can accommodate a larger party, up to 6 anglers, and affords comfortable and stability. Our snook fishing is being done out of the Pathfinder 22' and has all the latest technology to put your party up to 4 anglers on great inshore game fish. It's a fantastic time to go fishing in South West Florida!!!
Capt. Mike Slattery 941-626-6946 Fishing around Palm Island and Manasota Key Florida has been fantastic this April. Unseasonal cold fronts has held our water temperature in the "goldilocks zone" for a few weeks now. Snook, Spotted Sea Trout, and Redfish are being caught on almost every half day trip, and we are starting to see some Tarpon move into our area as well. As we creep closer to the coveted 80 degree mark for water temperature, we will continue to see our fishing improve. It's a fantastic time to go fishing in South West Florida!!!
Capt. Mike Slattery 941-626-6946 Spring has sprung, around Palm Island and Manasota Key Florida. We are seeing spring like conditions throughout the fishery. Bait is being caught throughout the harbor system. That opens the door for a spring trend, fishing snook and redfish. We are working deep edges during this transition period, to find nice sized fish on lower tides. When the tide begins to rise, we are finding nice redfish along our grass flats and mangrove haunts. It's a fantastic time to go fishing in Southwest Florida!!!
