Went out to turtle bay early Friday morning with a friend first stop we were in the fish.
Randy is former guide in Kentucky.
He was throwing white swim baits.
Which were my favorite/ go to bait until lately.
He did catch the first fish.
But my new go to bait soon caught up and passed the swim bait.
I'm now fishing a DOA clear with silver sparkle 1/2 Oz shrimp under a slide on Styrofoam float.
We ended up with 73 fish mostly trout
A few Jack's and lady fish and 1 lizard fish.
We left at noon.
Here's a picture of the snook my friend Steve caught while we were trolling Gold rattle traps in the canal behind our house

Not familiar with it.
But any advice on shoreline fishing in fort DeSoto Park on Tamp Bay would be great.
I'm camping there until Friday.

Fish the channel next to the camp store. Bottom fish with live shrimp early AM for flounder.
Use Sebiki to catch green backs there then free line at same location. Anything is possible.
Try pieces of shrimp or squid right by the culvert under the road.
Good luck and have fun.

We rented kayaks at DeSoto (they deliver them to your campsite) and caught a mess of snapper back in the mangroves. That's what got me interested in kayak fishing.
