This is fun, action filled fishing, trout being good fighters, hard hitters, and excellent table fare. Drifting the passes for ladyfish, pompano, bluefish, jacks, and other species is another fun, productive, and easy to learn fishing technique. Bottom fishing, around structures in the bay, or inshore Gulf, is yet another method that is good for beginners. A wide variety of tasty fish can also be caught this way. Sarasota is blessed with miles of shallow, pristine grass flats.
