First Week of Fishing Yields Mixed Bites and Big Catches
In Nokomis and Englewood areas anglers report snook, sheepshead, redfish, and drum with several large catches. Notables include a 6 pound snook by Tom Nelson, 20 pound sheepshead near Osceola, Indiana, and a 33 inch red by a North Port angler. Blue Seas and Miss Venice boats post record hauls as cooler weather thins anglers at marinas. Local reports mention tube worms and marsh-digged bait as new techniques.
