Hey there! Just wanted to share about the flats fishing trip I guided today with SRS Adventures out of St. Petersburg. May is a great time to hit the flats here in Florida - the water's warming up and the fish are getting active. We had Thenna join us for a Mate's Fee Only Card Shared trip, starting bright and early at 1:00 AM. The conditions were perfect - clear skies and great water, couldn't ask for better.
We spent the day trying out a variety of techniques on the flats. The clear conditions made for some excellent sight fishing opportunities. We were on the lookout for tailing redfish and cruising snook, working soft plastics and live bait to try and entice a bite. Even though the fish weren't cooperating as much as we'd hoped, it was still a beautiful day to be out on the water.
Though we didn't manage to land any big prize, we still had a great time out on the water, enjoying the scenery and good company. That's the thing about fishing - sometimes it's just about being out there, soaking in the experience. We saw some amazing wildlife, including dolphins and a variety of shorebirds. Thenna seemed to really enjoy learning about the different techniques and getting a feel for working the flats.
