  • Sarasota Fishing Forecast: Trout, Reds, and Cobia Await in the Gulf of Mexico

    Sarasota Fishing Forecast: Trout, Reds, and Cobia Await in the Gulf of Mexico
    Dec 1 2024
    As of December 1, 2024, if you're planning to hit the waters of the Gulf of Mexico around Sarasota, Florida, here's what you can expect:

    ### Tidal Report
    Today, the tides are relatively moderate, with a high tide at around 10:30 AM and a low tide at 4:30 PM. These tides should provide good conditions for fishing in the shallow flats and deeper grass flats.

    ### Weather
    The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a gentle breeze, making it a pleasant day for fishing. However, keep an eye out for any cold fronts that might be moving in, as they can affect water conditions and fish behavior.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 6:58 AM, and sunset is at 5:23 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to get out on the water.

    ### Fish Activity
    Given the recent storms, water quality might be a bit off, but that hasn't stopped the fish from biting. Yesterday saw a good amount of activity on the deep grass flats, where anglers caught a mix of trout, blues, Spanish mackerel, and pompano. Larger trout and reds were found in the skinny waters, while snook were staging around bars and shallow flats as they move towards their winter areas.

    ### Types of Fish
    Expect to catch a variety of fish including:
    - Trout of all sizes on deep grass flats
    - Reds in the skinny waters
    - Snook around bars and shallow flats
    - Blues, Spanish mackerel, and pompano mixed with trout
    - False albacore, tripletail, and cobia in the coastal gulf

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For the deep grass flats, use CAL jigs with shad tails or DOA Deadly Combos. Fly anglers should opt for small white flies, Ultra Hair Clousers, poppers, or Crease flies. For targeting tripletail and cobia around crab trap floats or buoys, DOA Shrimp or CAL jigs with shad tails work well. For cobia, larger baits like DOA Baitbusters or CAL jigs with 5½” jerk worms are effective.

    ### Hot Spots
    - Deep grass flats of Sarasota Bay for trout, blues, and pompano
    - Skinny waters for larger trout and reds
    - Coastal gulf for false albacore, tripletail, and cobia, especially around crab trap floats and buoys

    Remember to keep an eye on diving terns or terns hovering just above the surface, as they often indicate the presence of feeding fish. And as always, be mindful of our natural resources and practice catch-and-release fishing to help conserve our fish populations. Tight lines

    Redfish were abundant, with several schools spotted in the flats. Tarpon were also active, particularly in the morning hours. Snook were caught in the mangrove-lined areas, and there were reports of some kingfish and cobia further offshore.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For redfish, using small jigs or spoons with a soft plastic trailer worked well. Fly fishermen had success with shrimp and crab patterns. For tarpon, large streamers and spoons were effective. Snook were caught using live bait such as shrimp and pinfish, as well as lures like DOA shrimp.
